3 reasons why WWE should end the brand split after WrestleMania 35, and 3 reasons they should not

SmackDown and Raw are treated as two separate promotions by WWE, but should that continue?

WWE should end the brand split #2: The championships will have more meaning if they are recognized company-wide

The Universal and WWE Championships. Which has more prestige?

With the brand split, there are now two 'big belts' in the WWE promotion. There's the Universal Championship, the 'red' belt currently held by the Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar. Then there's the WWE Championship, the 'eco-friendly' title held by Daniel Bryan.

So which title has more prestige? For a long time, the unspoken rule about WWE was that Raw is the 'main' brand, with the bigger stars, so by default, the Universal title should be more prestigious. However, the Universal Title has been held by part-time wrestlers almost exclusively for most of its existence, while the WWE Championship is defended a great deal more.

That's not the only title confusion, either. What about the mid card belts, the Intercontinental Championship and the United States Championship? Which of those is the more prestigious belt? And don't get us started on the Tag Team Titles!

For titles to mean something, they must be unique. Having two big belt champions, two mid-card champions, and two different tag team champions cheapen the titles overall, and ending the brand split would alleviate this problem.
