Are you a fan of the title and secondly would you bring it back?

For me both answers are no due to the nature of the 24 hour rule leading to the belt being passed around a stupid amount of times. Click here to see a list of the reigns The 24 hour rule was fun at first but how many times can you have a guy be pinned quietly whilst he's sleeping? It just got to the stage when it was played out imo.

I loved it when I was a kid, but it has no place in today's WWE

I definitely would not want it back today. It was only really fun and entertaining when Crash Holly had it and the whole 24/7 rule was going on with him. Otherwise, I'd want less (rather than more) hardcore matches so as to make hardcore matches seem less casual and more special and having an actual championship around that is defended only in hardcore matches will only guarantee more hardcore matches, not less.

This is the problem with the gimmick PPV's such as ER. You're guaranteed at least one hardcore style match even if a feud doesn't deserve it so it ruins the match stip.
