For every slackass that will not read a post that is over 5 lines long, allow me to sum up the next post.
One major title won't work because the midcard sucks.
Even if WWE fixes the midcard and goes down to one title the guys at the main event level will have a harder time since there's a tighter space.
WWE shouldn't give solid main eventers midcard titles becasue it makes them look weak.

I believe that's what'll happen if there's only one major title, and I blame it on the midcard.
The WWE doesn't have a stong enough midcard to support a main event IC or US title feud. This is by no means the wrestler's fault. It's the writers and the bookers. There's a lot of talent there, but you can't mine gold without the right tools.
So let's just have Cena, HHH, and The Undertaker in the main event scene for this. ECW is having a main event rivalry over who spilt the coffee on Kane this time to start a feud because nobody really cares about ECW. Guys like Orton, Edge, JBL, and Batista who have already been world champion will look weak with a smaller title (Hell, I feel the that way about Jericho right now). The IC and US titles are just place holders right now. Having both the US and IC champion in the money in the bank made it clear that they're just midcard titles.
In a few years I could see the WWE having just one major title and one or two more smaller titles
IF the WWE can build up their midcard. The ECW title could be the WWE Hardcore title, and just do what they did with the hardcore title with the WHC title. Champion vs Chamion, winner is the WWE champion.
And one thing no one thinks of.... If you have ONE major title, think of the pissed off wrestler's you'll have. One major title means one main event, with about a dozen people who can fill it. Everyone will be trying to argue their way into that scene, and it'll be the NWA championship committee all over again. Bookers, writers, and wrestlers will push for their guy to have that title.
Edge, HHH, Cena, Orton, Jericho, JBL, The Undertaker, and others will all want that main event title. That'll be the title that says "I support this company on my shoulders." You'll have a lot of pissed off people who can't get near that title because it'll be an even tighter space.
One could say "It's a show, deal with it." However I'm sure everyone is out there to make money, and you don't sell merchandise from the midcard (upper midcard, yea, but just the midcard, not these days).
