When WWE unveiled the 24/7 Title on the night after Money in the Bank, no one was truly excited, as the underwhelming design of the championship disappointed the crowd in attendance. Moreover, you don't need to be an avid wrestling fan to know that the company was going to play this title for laughs.

However, WWE did something they don't usually do, and that pleasantly surprised their fanbase, as the 24/7 Title has constantly been the best part of WWE programming over the last few weeks. The real reason why this title has received a positive reaction from the WWE Universe is due to its holder, as one would be lying if they said that R-Truth's title reign has not put a smile on their face.

The wrestling veteran has shown the WWE Universe that even though he is a suitable age for retirement, Truth is still very much in the mood for making RAW entertaining again. One of the most impressive things about this reign is the places Truth's title defenses have taken place, from parking lot areas to The Usos' BBQ, one can only wonder where will Truth defend his title next. Here are some surprising options.


#1 Out And About

One of the best things about WWE's Attitude and even Ruthless Aggression Era was the amount of time WWE spent away from the wrestling ring developing their stories. You could find wrestlers doing promos on building rooftops, filming segments in their own backyard, and even brawling in supermarkets.

However, after a while, WWE has clearly moved past that to give fans a more polished look of their product, and if we are being honest here, it's a look that not many people enjoy. So wouldn't it be just perfect for WWE to go back to their roots using Truth's comical title reign? Watching Truth enjoying his day out in the city only to be unexpectedly confronted by a challenger for his title would make for some truly glorious television.

#2 Home Sweet Home

What a classic.
What a classic.

The history of superstars filming promos, doing interviews and even brawling in their homes is well-documented. We have seen some of the most infamous segments in wrestling history originating from this angle. Whether it was Triple H invading Randy Orton's home, or Stone Cold's controversial pursuit of Brain Pillman, this environment is something that always makes the wrestling experience a little bit more unique.

Therefore, you know it's only a matter of time before WWE take R-Truth down this lane, as witnessing Truth proclaim that he will stay at home until superstars lose interest in his title is coming. WWE can use that as an excuse to film Truth's next title defence. This could potentially be the funniest moment of the year if WWE book it right, as there are so many possibilities to explore if Truth is forced to defend his title in the comfort of his own home.


#3 The Wild Card

The Wild Card Rule has not been the best thing WWE has come up within the last few months. Placing the biggest stars from RAW and Smackdown Live on opposite brands is not the best solution when trying to fight a rating crisis. However, if WWE realizes that this rule could, in fact, have a depth of unexplored potential, then it would have a good effect on this product.

One of the ways the Wild Card Rule could be used to create a sense of surprise by having superstars move around on all brands. Whether it's 205 Live, NXT or even NXT UK, superstars should be moving everywhere which also could mean we could see our 24/7 Champion discovering unfamiliar terrain.

Truth being jumped by someone like Brain Kendrick on 205 Live, or the Undisputed Era on NXT, could make for a great scenario. Will it happen? It does appear unlikely, and it would be a wasted opportunity if WWE opt not to do it. It just adds to the unexpected nature of this title. Moreover, WWE doesn't have to create a new rule where other brands' stars can appear on a different show. Just have Truth hilariously show up, and it would be unlikely for even the most avid wrestling fans to have an objection.
