Hey guy's, Steve here, wanting to talk about the standings of WWE's titles. Most of all what kind of prestige they are pulling in at the moment. Now all of the titles have some weight behind them, but let's she how they progressed and how they look today, starting with...
WWE Tag Team Championships
So, we have the tag team of Team Hell No who are the champions, have been for a while now, going on strong. Now, anyone who knows me on here knows that I can't STAND it when tag teams are just made because high-profile superstars have nothing better to do. I hate it even more when they go over legitimate tag teams in their first night! But there's something about Team Hell No, I like them, Kane and Bryan have GREAT chemistry and are rapidly becoming my favourite Kane tag team. *DONG*
SORRY SORRY, I mean second favourite Kane tag team, don't put me in the Hell's gate!
Anyway, they are adding some good weight behind the TTC, the titles that were mocked for looking like pennies are now looking like prizes worth having. Especially with todays tag teams, there being a bountiful amount, being the top team MEANS something. I'm sure most of you guys will agree with me in saying that it's the best it's been in years and is maybe on par with the US and IC titles? Maybe pushing it, but I could be right, you decide.
WWE Diva's Championship
Sigh, I know, I know... But I have to include it. Let's face it, the fact that it's called the 'Diva's' Championship sounds stupid enough... Especially since doing that retired the Women's Championship and ended the great prestige behind that title. All the great women wrestlers all held the Women's Championship, but I digress. It seems like the DC has been just been for the generation of cheerleaders and pretty little girls.
Eve is currently Diva's Champion, she won it after being cheaply inserted into a match she should have been in, in the first place. But of course, it didn't go as plan because she messed up. Now I ask you, is it 'fair' that Eve won it after a huge goof like that? In my opinion, they need to change this BACK to the Women's title and put it on either Nattie or Tamina, REAL WRESTLERS! There's always this talk, it seems every couple of months that they might be bringing in real women wrestlers, but until I see the evidence, I'm not gonna believe the hype. (Also if you read through all of this section about the Diva's title, good for you, you deserve some good rep for not just skipping it, which I wouldn't blame you if you did!)
WWE US and IC Championship
Y'know, at first I wasn't on board with the idea of unifying these titles, but I'm starting to see it. If they did though, I'd like to see them lose both names and put on a new one. Why not WWE TV Championship? Maybe not, maybe something else... Something that solidifies the title's place in the line up, like WWE Junior Champion or something.
Anywaaaay, we have Kofi and Antonio as the champions. Kofi in his... 18th title reign I'd assume with the IC title and Antonio being a first time US Champ. As you can tell, I don't really like Kofi as the IC Champ, he's had it too much, it doesn't work. He's an OBVIOUS transitional champion and I hate that, because it's just so vanilla. Antonio, I personally don't like, loads of people like him, fair enough, but I don't. It's just annoying when he does that stupid thing where he pulls on his skull and WTF is with that arm thing? I'm hoping one day he'll dislocate a shoulder from doing that to teach him a lesson. Anyway, both titles are maintaining some good prestige, but in my opinion, can do with a unification and new champions.
WWE and World Heavyweight Championsip
Now we come to the biggest and most prestigious titles in the WWE, the World Heavyweight Championship (Not the
World's Heavyweight Title Matt Striker) and the WWE Championship. Now, when we had proper wrestler exclusive brands, having two world championship actually meant something, but now that they are mixing, it's starting to lose... Some face, they are still high as ever but, eh. Let's talk WHC first, shall weeeee....
Big Show is the World Heavyweight Champion. He won after beating Sheamus for the title and is gonna be in a 3rd match with Sheamus at TLC with the title on the line... I'm not liking this feud to be honest, yeah, it was good at first, but you gotta have more then just that contender. Maybe Randy can be the next one up to the Rumble, that could work. As for prestige, it's pretty high right now, definitely the title which defines Smackdown, which is a great thing, let's move on.
CM Punk, he doesn't mind telling you he's the longest running WWE Champion in modern wrestling. That's DEFINITELY something to proud about, taking that accolade away from Superma.... John Cena. I didn't think he'd make it, but here we are. Punk's next contender is the Rock, do I want the Rock to win... NOPE! A guy who's not even here full time is gonna end the longest title reign in modern history in one swoop, I know I don't want to see that. Let's see Punk take it to WrestleMania. The next champion has to be someone who has truly earned it, someone who hasn't been a world champion yet. As for prestige, the title is golden and looks great with Punk's reign, but of course... THERE NEEDS TO BE A NEW DESIGN!!! I swear, the only reason why there hasn't bee a new design is because the backstage types are procrastinating... If we want Punk's reign to be locked in, we need him to debut a new title design.

Now it's your turn.
