CM Punk broke my heart last night when he presented his view on the World's Heavyweight Championship.

He wasn't wrong, though.

When they introduced the brand division and the WWE title went to one brand an the WHC went to another brand, there was gonna be a #2 title and a #1 title regardless no matter what. WHC is in essence the resurrected WCW title, so naturally its going to take a backseat to the WWE title which has been in the company since the get go. Vince would never have it any other way and it will never be any other way. Whoever has the WWE title is #1 and the WHC is #2 plain and simple. Next topic discussion please.

not mad about it, its simply a concept that any half decent wrestling fan who has been following the business since probably 1998 plus should be able to figure out with relative ease. Closes the loop on the discussion at that point. WHC is the WCW title, Vince buys the fledgling company and then has the rights and acess to the title name, likes and rightness so why not use it? But why make it overshadow the belt that made your company what it was. Being WWE champion means you are the flagship of the company. The WHC simply means lets see how you might draw at the top, plain and simple, no anger invovled in the post, was just a point blank observation that everyone should clearly see

Seemed angry when you said the topic should just be over after your post. Especially considering other people have already made that same point in this thread.

I understand that the WWE Championship is the top prize. But I like to entertain the idea that both the belts are of equal importance (in my head ).

I noticed that too. I think it was partially because what Punk was saying was right, and also the fact that he was getting booed as a face. He didn't really have any legs to stand on in Punk's home town.

Rather have the WHC as the #1 belt..cause that title has been around longer than the wwe belt,has more history.

The WHC was clearly the #1 championship in WWE when it debuted until 2005 when Cena won the WWE Championship and they swapped Batista to SmackDown! and Cena to RAW.

There were a few times when the belt main evented shows. Like when Batista defeated Booker for the strap at Survivor Series, Edge-Taker series, Championship scrambles, Punk-Jeff Hardy rivalry, Jericho-Shawn feud etc. I believe it started losing the "main-event" spot when Edge won it for the last time. |

I think it lost some of it's luster when it was somehow vacant from WM20 until SummerSlam 2004
