It seems like whoever holds it becomes forgotten despite their talent. Is the midcard booking that bad?
Is the IC championship cursed?

Back in the old days, the IC title was a stepping stone towards the main event and the world title. Almost every 80's/90's WWF champion held it at some point. I think the last person to have won the IC title and then later went on to win the WWE title (Not the WHC) was Rey Mysterio and we remember how long that reign lasted.

Yes the midcard booking is exactly that bad. For any main event improvements HHH has made recently the midcard and tag divisions were a massive step backward, and it is a real shame. Midcard titles can mean something, they have in the past, matter of fact they used to mean a lot, they used to kick start careers. Now they, just like the division they represent are afterthoughts. And that more than anything else complained about on the internet is the the worst part of the business right now, at least IMO. There is a reason why the first two hours of raw after the intro are so frowned on, its because of exactly what I just said.

You are for sure not wrong, but it's more than just that though, they need reasons to cut those promos, long running feuds and stories to kick them up to the next notch. They need excitement for those titles, the IC title should be defended in the main event of Raws, the US title in the main event of the other shows. Not every week of course, but at least say once a month.

Bray wins IC title and then cena fights him for it. Keeps cena out of the main event and gives cred ic.
