Still having to explain why there is a champion of WWE and a Champion of the Universe to non hardcore fans is embarrassing.
Generally when I split rosters I end up making all the champions float between shows. Doesn't necessarily mean every champion appears on both shows. There might be a span of a month or two where the World champ is primarily feuding with someone on SmackDown and the IC champ is making most of his appearances feuding with someone on Raw, but the US champ is appearing on both shows doing open challenges or whatever until he gets his next actual feud.

Gives me some flexibility to move people around but having everyone else locked in to a brand at the time just allows me to feature more people and get more people into stories.

Brand exclusive titles are death though. For a time I didn't mind them but now after years and years of it you just realize now that everyone and their brother has held a title at some point because there are 25 of them in the company.
