#3 The WWE Championship has only main-evented 8 pay-per-views since the 2016 Brand Split
Since the 2016 Brand Split, the WWE Championship has had a fair share of memorable matches and feuds. However, the largest issue with the WWE Championship was its lack of importance in comparison to the Universal Championship.
For the first year or so, promoting the Universal Championship made sense. However, since the brand split, the WWE Championship has only main-evented eight pay-per-views. With its prestige and history, the WWE Championship should be elevated to consistently main eventing PPVs.
#4 Ric Flair had the fastest rise to the WWE Championship
While the original 'Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers was the inaugural WWF Champion, Ric Flair won the championship only four months after his debut, winning it at the 1992 Royal Rumble.
Though Flair only held the WWE Championship for a combined 118 days between his two combined reigns, his meteoric rise to the WWE Championship stands today against fellow rapid risers to the main event such as AJ Styles, Kurt Angle, and Sheamus.
