I think the biggest thing we all forget is that the WCW title was called the World Heavyweight Championship for a bit after the Invasion angle and when Jericho won it. Back then it definitely held the WCW lineage.

I think it makes sense to look at it like this: The WCW title was absorbed into the WWE Championship when Jericho won it. The WCW lineage stops there. When Bischoff brought it back, it WAS the same title, but the WCW lineage stayed with the WWE championship.

My head hurts.
