Had to. They realized quickly in 2003 brands need a secondary belt. Hence the US coming back two months later for SD to have, too.

Especially when Triple H is monopolising the main one

 

[Chris]

The last hardcore match on Raw

 

[O-Blaze]

Especially when Triple H is monopolising the main one

He deserved too

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Especially when Triple H is monopolising the main one

Especially with that. Which I like Triple H so I don't hate it like others, but if there aren't title changes on top, you really need another belt.

 

[Chris]

Yeah like how the IC title became more important when Brock would work select dates as Universal Champion. I like Brock so I wasn't complaining there but the IC title def needed the push it got from like Reigns and Miz during that era

 

[Sky]

I like falls count anywhere matches too

 

[Sky]

Reminder that TNA 2010 did a falls count anywhere match that ended in the ring by rollup

 

[Chris]

I don't mind that if it fits in the context of the match but on paper that does sound hilarious

 

[O-Blaze]

Well the ring is ANYWHERE

 

[Sky]

I don't mind that if it fits in the context of the match but on paper that does sound hilarious

There was a rope break in a falls count anywhere match

 

[Chris]

Oh that's no good

 

[O-Blaze]

Well yeah I can't find away to defend that

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Dreamer got fed to the slaughter. Never stood a chance.

 

[Chris]

The sportsmanship though

 

[O-Blaze]

cause the ring is anywhere, I can defend that.... but a rope break, no
