Kidd Done Good By: @ThatDaveGuy | Posted: 07/05/12 On the June 29th SmackDown (recorded on Tuesday 26th) Tyson Kidd got a surprising victory over Jack Swagger in a Money in the Bank qualifying match. A win over 'The All American American' is rarely big news but it was in this case: Kidd is one of the few members of the roster who loses more often than Vickie Guerrero's client.
![]() Barring a short-lived tag team he formed with Justin Gabriel, which was said to be in line for a push before injuries got in the way, Kidd has done nothing of note for years. It's nice to see his ability and hard work rewarded with a spot in a match that will not only grant him a moment in the spotlight but also play to his strengths. Realistically I can't see Kidd capturing the World Heavyweight title briefcase. I think the most he can hope for is a near miss moment and a memorable spot. That's not say his push won't continue after the show. While it's not a guarantee I would be surprised if WWE went to the trouble of giving Kidd these wins for just a single pay-per-view. The world titles may seem above Kidd right now but that's not necessarily a bad thing. He could be used as part of a revived mid-card and be built up for a run with the Intercontinental championship. If he wins enough for a couple of months fans should be willing to accept that Kidd's push will last, at which point he could be put into a feud with a heel IC champ. Christian v Tyson Kidd would be a fine programme but the current output of the WWE writing team makes me doubt they are skilled enough to produce the subtle nuances of a face versus face rivalry. Better to hope a heel drops 'Captain Charisma' in the next few weeks and acts as a caretaker champion while Kidd is readied for a lengthy title reign. Tyson Kidd is a talented, hard-working wrestler who produces great matches. He is exactly the sort of man WWE should be pushing. I hope this doesn't become the sort of stop-start push which viewers have become all too familiar with because with Tyson Kidd has a chance of creating a new star. - @ThatDaveGuy
