Get rid of the US title. It has no prestige, it has no meaning. They've managed to get the IC title back in a good position. The US belt is useless now.

Bring back the Cruiserweight belt. And put it on AJ Styles. No but seriously at least it gives something for the smaller guys to really compete for.
 
Just give Trips all the belts. Save us all the time.

I pretty much agree with you.

If it weren’t for the PG Era, I’d want to see the Hardcore title return.

I think there is also a case to drop the Divas title and bring back the Women’s Championship.

You know it's funny you mention that because I was just thinking about it the other day. I think Diva is a little demeaning, and considering the whole women's movement in WWE they should change it back to the Women's title. Not that I give a shit about women's wrestling, they should all be valets in my opinion.
 
Divas title is embarassing... so is the US title, but for different reasons. Get rid of them both. Replace Divas with an infinitely more respectable Women's title and don't replace the US title with anything. It's meaningless. and let the IC title main event a fucking PPV once in awhile too, seem important. Bouncing it around between random jabronis has nearly killed one of the best titles ever.

Was never a big fan of having a cruiser weight title, despite being a big cruiser weight fan.. I did see it having a bit more purpose when the wrestler's average size was much larger.. seems less necessary now.. but I wouldn't hate it coming back. I would just hope it has a little prestige.
 
Think the US title be the TV title or the "United States TV Title" and should always be defended as an open challenge each Raw and PPV.

Gives some mystique to the belt and brings back some of the cool 24/7 gimmick the Hardcore title had.

TBH both the US and IC belts are in a good position right now... Del Rio dropping the belt to Kalisto was truly best for buisness
 
Although I did feel like Cena did a great job making the US title mean something last year I agree with your feeling that it is kinda a worthless title.

I used to be a big fan of the hardcore title but as time has gone on I enjoy hardcore matches less and less.. I like it better when getting hit by a chair is a major difference maker rather than just another spot of the match. The hardcore title got really crazy towards the end of its existence to the point where it was changing hands multiple times during the same show.

For a while Cena's US open challenge was the #1 segment of RAW for me. SO I would like to see them retire the US title and replace it with something along the lines of "Open Challenge title" or "Iron Man title".. And have it be required that it must be defended during every RAW & PPV in a clean 1v1 match.

Keep IC belt and HW belt and tag belts as the main storyline belts. And use the open challenge belt as a gate keeper title to help establish new ppl and have entertaining classic match ups.
 
Agree with the sentiment here, turn the US title into the TV title and have it defended each week
 
Problems with the U.S. Title is it's always used as a prop for a tasteless storyline where some wrestler wins it while representing a foreign nation... And the American hero has to get it back but can't for 4 ppvs cuz the foreign guy always cheats to win... It's really stupid and old.
 
Kill the Divas title with fire and bring back the Women's Championship.

Also, making the US title a TV title is genius. Too smart for creative.
 
If I can only pick one it has to be swapping the Divas title for a Womens title.

I'd also like to bring back the big gold heavyweight belt and wouldn't be opposed to the US title becoming either the TV or Cruiserweight title.
 
wtf @ so many people complaining about the Divas title? It's the exact same thing as the "womens title".

Would you rather the HW title be renamed the "Man's Title"?

Since when do we give a shit whats going on in the realm of womens wrestling anyway.

I would also like to get rid of the blinged out HW title.. It was cool when Austin got his custom rattle snake title but everyone else who got a custom title just made it look stupid. If anything positive comes out of HHH's holding the title hostage until WM it should be that he retires it for more respectable/classic looking belt
 
The better comparison would be if they renamed the main heavyweight championship the "Superstar's Championship Belt" (as Diva is supposed to be their female version of Superstar, both being branded replacements for "Wrestler").

I think most would feel that would be a terrible choice and would disagree with it, and rightly so.

I was very glad to see that NXT has a Women's Championship, despite still occassinally referring to those who compete for it Divas (though less often now than even a year ago), and it seems very likely that's where the next generation of WWE will be going, but certainly not until they are at least out of their current branded contracts (Total Divas, ect).


I'll echo the sentiment here with the US title. I was a big fan of it being defended on TV, and feel that should be it's role, because otherwise it doesn't seem to have one.

Come on fam, the belt is a butterfly...

And I want to care about women's wrestling because a couple of them really do have superstar potential, but the belt makes me totally unable to take it seriously.

I'm not saying go full joshi, but do something to get my mind off the fact that Vince is hiring models and trying to get them over. Give it some kinda prestige.
