I am really happy they separated those titles, it made sense when the usos were on top but it hasn't made or been booked as a dual title in a minute and this will be way better for both shows - with the way WWE separates their roster, it felt like the tag scene on SDL was pointless and heatless without a title on the show weekly

Yeah it's officially 2 Championship reigns right now. Cody is listed as both Champions, and also the history for both championships has Cody winning them on Sunday. I do expect them to retire the lineage of the Universal Championship.

Yeah I've said a million times they would have already retired it when Roman unified them but they couldn't bc the Universal reign was what he started with so that's how they were counting his reigns days

Now we just need to wait for Awesome Truth to get drafted to Smackdown and A-Town Down Under to go to Raw, so that they have a reason to redesign the Championship Titles into WWE Tag Team Championships and World Tag Team Championships.

Unrelated but I wonder if "Belt" is still a bad word in modern WWE. Now that "Wrestling" isn't a bad word I wonder if "Belt" is OK.

I think they will still try to say title so they can add the WWE prefix to it, but I don't think a single person will get in trouble or scolded for saying belt, either.

Yeah that's how I feel. I don't even mind that Vinceism compared to the rest I actually like referring to them by the more proper names, I just didn't think it needed to be strict. I'll always say championship and title when referring to them, I feel like I only say belt when I'm talking about the actual cosmetics lol

smashed him over the head with the belt - x won the championship/title

makes sense to me to say it like that. but to me also belt is like the term when casually talking too

Elimination matches have the same scoring as gauntlet matches. Apparently we had one on Rampage?

Yes, a 4 way. To get over the final 4 for synergy on TNT and TBS I think was the point
