			That's a fair case. I think my big concern is that once Metalik is painted as a runner-up, he's done. TJ Perkins being able to talk is a good reason for him to lose. He can put over how the right cruiserweight legends went over. He can put over a program he is in away from the belt. 
 Is he still getting booed? I'd follow that and give him this full entourage of guys that accompany him to the ring. They're all in black and he's in a white hoodie or something. Basically present him how they presented Floyd Mayweather in his feud with Big Show. I guess that's sort of a champion's presentation, but I think it can get over away from the belt.
 
 I kind of want a deranged Kendrick vs. Ibushi feud. "You beat me but didn't win the entire thing?" kind of motivation for Kendrick.
