Reflection
is a happier and wiser man
I can see the Title-Unification as a possibility once the Brand-Unification happens (which is unlikely). As long as they are two separate shows, I don't think it would (or should) happen.
The most common pro would be "ONE Champion"- the guy who will be declared Best in The WWE, with no other person on the same rank as him.
On the other side, the most common con will be the lack of chances of most people winning the belt. For example, we already have Cena, Orton, Sheamus, Punk, and now Bryan competing for the belt. Chances of guys at slightly lower level than them, like Wade Barrett, or Dolph Ziggler, or Mark Henry for instance, their chances of winning the belt comes down to almost Zero if the titles are unified; and that is one reason why I believe the titles should continue being the way they are now.
Same with the talks of IC/US Title Unification- We have one guy (say Christian) holding the belt. That would leave about 20 others (from Santino to Swagger to Ryder to Rhodes) competing for the belt, which I feel is a little more than they can arrange for. Plus if the Undisputed champion is from SD for some reason, that would only add to the clusterfuck as Supershow guys don't come to SD.
The Unifications of Divas title and Tag Team Titles worked because there were not enough talent left to compete for two separate titles. But that's not the case of the two World titles and the two Mid-Card titles.
