One thing that the WWE does a PISS POOR job of (and always have), is that they deliberately make the CW division look weaker than everything else (instead of it being implicit).

Take the Women's division for instance. Everyone KNOWS that it's inferior to every other division, but the division has still done well in the past. Why? Because - it was a "league of their own".

Dave Batista didn't have to wrestle Trish Stratus in order to prove to the fans that the Women's division was inferior.


Similarily, in boxing, Lennox Lewis never had to beat the piss out of Oscar De Lahoya to prove that the CW division was far below the Heavyweight division....it was already implicit.


What the WWE have done with their CW division, is completely disrespect it by constantly making the CW's look inferior to non CW wrestlers.


If it was up to me, I would completely get rid of the CW division in the WWE.

There would still be a place for CW's in the WWE, but they could wrestle for *MORE IMPORTANT* titles.
But then you run the risk that they'll still get mistreated and end up on Velocity, without a title to "fuel" them.

I see nothing wrong with your idea, but I don't know if the WWE's philosophy would change just by getting rid of their title. I personally think they just need to let them be in "a league of their own" as you said, and keep them removed from the rest of the roster.
