For me a good Title run includes:

A great storyline(s) behind it
Good workers involved (wrestling wise, promo wise, excitement wise)
Not having the Same Matches Over and Over and Over and Over again (which is why I hate pretty much all Title runs these days)

Simple as that

I saw a post about Glass Ceilings today in another thread with Cena, Bats and Lashley. I think the One touched on it. I really don't mind Glass Ceilings. Hell, I enjoyed Hogans run for years.

The Main reason why I enjoyed it because there were different stories everytime and he didn't work with his opponent all the time. These days you'll see Cena fight his opponent at the PPV in some tag match a week before the PPV. It makes the PPV match less valuable with each time you put the Title Holder and Challenger in the same match before the PPV. You didn't see Hogan wrestling Andre before Mania. They did angles and shot promos to lead up to it. You didn't see Bret wrestle Shawn before Survivor Series 97.

Slaughter/Hogan was not a great match at all, but I REALLY wanted to see it come Mania 7. The story leading up really made it feel like a big match. Just as an example.

I mean we saw Lashley vs Umaga right before Mania, at Mania and then last night. WTF?

WWE does not know how to create a "payoff" anymore. That's lost with them.
