You could even have him win it briefly and lose it to someone like Jericho before Punk comes back so that a heel can get the heat from taking it from him and “You’re convict street trash that only tasted glory for a bit and it didn’t even count” can be a running cheap heat-getter for any other heels he might feud with in the future.

Exactly. Eddie winning the title, getting all the glory and pomp and circumstance that doesn’t go to a guy like him not only gets him over even more, it gives a heel who’d run his chance at becoming a legitimate world champion mega heat. Dropping it Jericho after getting shafted in his first defense would be tremendous.
