7 Controversial ideas to improve WWE programming

#2 Make the WWE title the top title and make the Universal title the secondary world championship

WWE Champion Daniel Bryan, the real world champ

Let's face the facts that the Universal title has been cursed from the get-go, and literally has no meaning behind it, due to Brock Lesnar's noticeable absence and lack of defence. It is going to be questionable even when the title does get back onto TV full time, whether management can make the Universal title gather some prestige, and be accepted by fans again as a world title.

An opinion that I'm sure most of us would agree on, is that Brock Lesnar has not given the title any sort of prestige whatsoever. As it stands now, the Universal title has become somewhat of a joke to most wrestling fans, with some fans not even liking the belt from the very start, due to its toy-like presentation.

Who will ever forget the night on Monday Night Raw when it was revealed in 2016, following the brand split. The crowd was chanting "that belt sucks," and to be hones,t it doesn't look very prestigious, but it wasn't the worst design.

Since the Universal title hasn't been received very well or garnered any sort of prestiege, it should become more like a secondary world title, more like how people viewed the World Heavyweight Championship in its later years. It could be a cross between a world title and sort of like a TV title, due to how damaged its reputation is.

The WWE Championship needs to go back to being the most coveted and prestigious title that everyone wants to hold. It was always known to be the top prize, even when the WWE officially introduced the World Heavyweight Championship because the WWE championship is synonymous with the company and has a rich 50-year history. Some of the greatest legends of the sport held this title and it needs to be treated the way that it was for most of those 50 years. No title should ever be created (or existing ones), made higher than the coveted WWE Championship.
