Its a prop, but I think you're missing what I'm saying.
Its a fictional world, with fictional character, who have fictional goals.
Those fictional goals include aspirations of a title. The title is often the meaning of the match. Benoit doesnt just jump brands and come for HHH because he doesnt like him. Its the basis of fueds and the method used to push and elevate talent.
They don't have a Royal Rumble for the hell of it, its meaning is all about the title.
Thats why a title shot, #1 contendership or mid-card titles is the root between fueding between superstars and such.
High profile fueds are booked over 2 things, titles and/or soap operatic drama.
The majority of fans/marks care for these things. Not everyone is like us and looking forward to a Benoit/Angle grudge match or random meeting. The title gives it more selling power and makes it draw more, as they elevate the title and make it mean more as well. Its a little of both.
