Other than the fact that that is really bad theology?  The Pope is not the successor of Christ... he is the successor of the Vicar of Christ, Peter.  To claim parity with Christ would be obvious heresy, and you would cease to be Pope to second you tried to claim that name.

Actually, as you aren't currently a Bishop, you would never be Pope at all.  You would be Pope-elect for all of about five seconds.
I was not being serious...
