Yeah, World Heavyweight Champion should be on both shows if they’re from SmackDown. Why did they even create this belt? If the problem is Roman doesn’t defend, there simply being a belt on Raw doesn’t fix SmackDown’s problems.
This is some real AEW Title/Impact Title/ROH Title nonsense. |

Handy reference so I don't get lost:
The AEW title is AEW's top title The Impact title is Impact's top title The ROH title is ROH's top title I guess that's a bit like the WWE World WWE Heavyweight Title is the top title on the premier flagship show that doesn't get the ratings of the other show that's got the WWE Title which is a combination of the WWE Universal Title and the WWE WWE Heavyweight title (but not the other new one) and they've all only existed for a couple of years at most. I suppose it is the same yeah. |

The Impact Title is Impact’s top title that has been defended on AEW television. The ROH Title is ROH’s top title that is also on an AEW mid-carder. Nice try.

Of the current possibilities, I’m not opposed to Edge beating Seth at Night of Champions.

The more time that passes with WWE shitting on the prestige of being a world champion and half-assing WrestleMania cards, the more I think they should have just let Santino win the Rumble in 2011 and win the title at WrestleMania. It’s not like it would have led to any bad result that didn’t happen anyway. At least that way we would have gotten a nice little 3 month fever dream of a storyline to revisit occasionally.

In a world where there 2 (or 3?) world titles, why not?

Remember when Taker won the rumble and they had the champions stand in the ring for him to choose which title to go for and they included the ECW champion? Lol

If I recall correctly, Lashley was the champion at the time. Taker even fought Big Show for the belt on one of the weekly ECW shows. |

If they had just kept doing ECW One Night Stand shows as escapes from the mainline WWE programming, it could have been awesome. With hindsight, the ongoing show was probably always going to fail (like CWC turning into 205 Live), but they really missed a beat by making it WWE-lite.
How they didn’t have Eugene do the Usual Suspects twist at ONS 2006 is still beyond me. I mean, I don’t WHY Nick Dinsmore would try to trick us all. And it probably would have gotten a huge pop which defeats the purpose to some extent, but it would have moved things forward. But then they could have just done this on Raw or SmackDown. Take the things about ECW that worked and just use them. You didn’t need an ECW to introduce CM Punk or…well, I’m drawing blanks. |

Gotta laugh that after YEARS of killing NXT debuts by starting them off fueding with Dolph Ziggler, JD McDonagh in his Raw debut sets up a fued with DOLPH ZIGGLER!!!

I was a bit disappointed nothing got done with him during the Vince/Triple H swap over. And when he went undrafted it made me a bit sad.

I dunno man, he’s the definition of “just there”. A “good hand” that can make others look great, which is something you need don’t get me wrong. He’s just had nothing in terms of character change or image change in so long.

He’s not exactly in the most dynamic of slots right now, but I think the pure enhancement talent thing with him is a bit too low. Some effort should be made to shake things up with him.

There are murmurs there might be a backstage movement swelling to put the World Title on AJ Styles. Good.

"Just there" describes 90% of the roster, including AJ Styles, which is a shame cause Styles used to be presented as special.

Maybe it’s because I don’t watch every week, but AJ still impressed the shit out of me on SmackDown. So did Lashley, Rey and Edge.

I mean this is somewhat true and it’s fine if talent goes through periods of being “just a guy” before being heated up for something. AJ has definitely had a period of just being there. Ziggler has had such a long period of time of just being there though. They did that whole NXT Champion run a little while ago and then back to making up the numbers on the main roster.
