Well, honestly, theres only really one MAJOR flaw for me right now.

The WWE does not know how to build championships.

As of now, the WWE Championship is the last step on the stairwell of success. Its a huge deal. Which it should be, but its really casting a nasty shadow over the other titles.

Last Raw, when it came time for Cena to choose his challenger for Summerslam, the World Heavyweight Champ Bertie Del Rio stood amongst the roster, waiting for his name to be called.

Now first off, this makes the WHC look like mince meat. Why on earth, would the World Heavyweight Champ be concerned with the WWE Championship?

Now, I thought that the WWE Championship and the WHC were supposed to be equal? Well I dont see equality here.

Second flaw? Because the WHC looks minuscule, every other title below the WHC seems like dust.

In order for WWE to build respectable divisions, they need to make the titles respectable, or no one is going to give a fuck.

If they don't confront this, then we might have a big issue.

I really don't see an issue with it...to me they are equal why wouldn't Del Rio want to hold both belts and proves he is the best....same as I am sure John Cena would love to hold both as well...I don't see the flaw in it at all...the IC title is being built back up and being used to build a new star as is the US Title...I believe they need to bring back a cruiserweight title for guys like Gabriel, Kidd, Zayne

While he might want to hold both it still looked incredibly bad for the World Champion to be waiting on top of the ramp like a chump.

I even made a point about this during the discussion. And they're definintely not equal. The world champion never closes the show anymore. Never main events a PPV.

Once WWE shutdown the brand extension the world title became the old IC Championship. Close to being the top title, but not actually the top title.

With all talent working on all shows now, there really isn't even a point to the world title if I'm being honest.

One thing I agree with [MENTION=53]Booty Wyatt[/MENTION] about is WWE needs a Cruiserweight Championship for the smaller wrestlers again. That division usually contained the best wrestling too.

I'll agree with the title situation. Especially as nowadays the IC/US titles seem to cause the champ to start jobbing frequently. Change one of those midcard titles to a cruiser title or something else and you'd be back on track.
