Firstly, I don't agree with the idea of creating a SmckDown! championship. As you say it would have no lineage whatsoever and, if I were a wrestler, I'd much prefer to hold a title that has already been held by such legends as Bruno Sammartino, Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart and Stone Cold.

Plus, what would they call it? WWE champion sounds good, as it implies you're the best in the entire organisation. World champion even more so, as it implies you're the best in the world.

The best course of action, for me, would be to re-introduce the Undisputed title under the name of Undisputed WWE World Championship. Both GMs would have the right to book the champion on their shows, but only in non-title bouts. Championship matches on RAW or SmackDown! would have to be OK'd by Vince as the owner of the company, as would the number one contender. Bischoff or Long would have to go to Vince and put their case forward why their superstar should get a title shot. If the champion loses, they would fill the gap left by the new champion on their show.

In my opinion, something along these lines would be so much better than having two titles named after their shows. An organisation's major belt has to mean something; not just by its lineage but in name as well, otherwise what's the point in having it?
