Just thought of something... POTENTIAL RAW SPOILERS

[parkmania]

When WWE was getting rid of all the different belts during the Invasion, didn't Edge have something to do with the Hardcore/US/IC unification? If so, that might be a logical step in the Foley/Edge alliance - to have Edge give Foley back the belt, and then Foley detroys it or somesuch?

[Mister Sinister]

No...Edge was only involved in the merging of the WCW United States Championship and The Intercontinental Championship beating Test, The Rest of the titles were merged as followed.


Dudley Boyz def. Hardy Boyz to merged the WWE/WCW Tag Team Titles
Chris Jericho def. Steve Austin to merged the WCW/WWE World Titles

A Year later.

RVD def Jeff Hardy to merge the IC/European Titles together.
RVD def. Tommy Dreamer to merge the IC/European & Hardocre Titles Together

Triple H def. Kane to merge the World Heavyweight Title & IC Title together.

[Dave Youell]

Triple H def. Kane to merge the World Heavyweight Title & IC Title together.
That bit made me cry, why they bothered doing that at all still puzzle's me

[The One]

I think I can sum up the idea with one image...

Minature title belts...look closely...

Upper Left = Tag Team Title
Upper Right = WWF Title
Lower Left = Intercontinental Title
Lower Right = World Heavyweight

I think the reason they merged the titles was because it was around the time it changed from WWF to WWE. They needed to get the big WWF logo's off the belts and it would take time to make a new belt so if they had them "inactive" or merge them, it wouldn't be a problem :-\

I thought they merged them because suddenly they had an assload of titles, and half of them were redundant.

[Disturbed316]

Well yeah. But once they started merging their own titles (not the ones added by the WCW buy out) then that's when I start to think about alternative motives behind it.

[TerranRich]

The site itself is outdated (I haven't bothered in awhile), but the charts are good for anyone who wants to know the histories of the unifications and splits and whatnot: http://www.xylot.net/titles

And please, I know it's out of date.

[Xero]

Why do I keep think that the IC title was once merged with the WWE championship? I can't find any proof in my searches, but I seem to remember it being absorbed into the WWE title in a Kane vs. Triple H match.

[Destor]

It was the world title.

[Xero]

Whichever, I can't find it on any site.

[Destor]

Doesn't change the fact I watched it live.

[Xero]

I know it happened, just saying that it doesn't seem like it did. :shifty:

[Destor]

Most would like to forget it.

[Destor]

It's in there.

[Xero]

Fuck, didn't know you could click the links...

Well, now I feel stupid.
