WWE Titles.. Hiow Many Do You Need?

[MicheliniWrestling]

I think there should be 5 titles up for grabs in WWE and is what i feel they should be. Obviously the WWE, Tag titles and Woman's are no brainers but the two id propose would be a little more radical. Firstly id have the IC and US titles unified to create a credible and storied title that would honor both great workers and up-comers as the two titles have over the years. I would do this by putting a 230 lbs weight cap on this which ensure this wasn't tarnished by big sloppy oafs like Ezechiel Jackson or Great Khali or any former heavyweight champions looking for something to chase in between story lines. This would also show whoever was the IC/US/New Light Heavyweight champion was likely to be the next guy with in ring skills to step up to the WWE title. Which brings me onto my next title the WWE title, this title should always be the centre piece of the company and can be worn by a man of any size. Well as long they were ready to take centre stage with it and not be overshadowed by a Cena/Rock/Lesnar type of guy who can often do this to an undeserving champ (see Miz and Del-Rio WWE title runs). Then finally id controversially keep the Heavyweight title and again id put a weight cap on this making it shock horror a HEAVYWEIGHT title. For this title id put a 270-280 lbs cap on to keep it away from Cena/Orton or Punk/Bryan types and perfect thing to chase for the Barratts, Kanes, Henrys etc. This would make the shows, the company and over all product tick over more efficiently but hey ho WWE wont take a risk and do it as it is easier to just plod along in mediocrity then it is to expand and achieve greatness.

Get rid of the womens title and division and make way for another mens title and then we're talking the business. The womens division is pure fluff

Well for Surely World Tag, Womens, and WWE title.....
the WWE title although I been favor in the past in unifying it with the World title in the past.. Which would mean one belt would be rid of and that would most likely be the WHC...
So the other titles that should be kept.... I say keep them all.... with a stack mid-card and Main Event scene, you have to give them something to fight for, a bigger pay day for being the champion...

The 6 titles currently active are fine. If anything, they're the bare minimum.

I don't understand why so many in the IWC want the world and/or secondary titles to be unified. We bitch enough as it is for certain people never getting title reigns. Do you think the situation would be any better if there were even LESS opportunities?

I for one loved it when the ECW, Women's, World Tag Team, and Cruiserweight titles existed. There were enough titles that almost person on every show, no matter what level, had something to hold or pursue. That's not the case anymore.

Less = worse.

1 more title I think, cruiserweight perhaps. Would be good to see a Cruiserweight open again, great way to start a PPV.

I see a few people mentioning this, but the only problem with doing that is that WWE would be criticized for not having a womens division. They'd surely get criticism for sexism surely?

IMO, they should have the WWE Championship, the World Heavyweight Championship, the Intercontinental or the United States Championship, the Cruiserweight Championship, the Divas Championship and the Tag Team Championships.

This world is so hyper-sensitive about everybody doing everything the right way - don't forget the women, the minorities, the elderly; do it safely; don't do it rudely, make sure you're nice about everything; don't offend, don't make fun of, don't display certain images; acknowledge the little guy, make sure everyone feels safe, snug and cosy at all times and by the way, we'll be making shit up as we go and tell you about it later!

FACK the PC! FACK making everybody happy! It's killing creativity!

Just to clarify, I agree with you in saying that the womens division is worthless at this point and should be rid of.
I'm just questioning whether or not WWE could realistically make that move. And in this day and age, where PC does matter (unfortunately), I don't think they would or even could.

[Poot-Hair]

I'd leave the other belts the way they are besides he IC and U.S; I'd combine them. In the open spot created by combining the two titles, I'd bring back a Cruiserweight or Light-Heavyweight belt to help some of the midcarders shine

I guess you enjoy watching well over half the current WWE locker room be worthless wastes of space. Less titles means less opportunties for the newer guys. Less opportunties means less likely that the fans will ever latch on to them. And people wonder why WWE relies on the old part-timers to draw in the money.
