I definitely think that some title unification would work.
I think that the U.S. Championship and the Intercontinental Championship should probably be unified, but I could easily be talked out of that. As long as they keep one primarily on a RAW guy and one primarily on a Smackdown! guy it makes sense to have two, but with such blurry lines between the two brands at this point it might be a little much. In the end though, I consider the U.S. title to basically be the third tier title in the company and I do not really mind a company having three tiers.
Obviously, the Diva and Tag team divisions are not big enough to warrant two titles running around, so I am completely fine with the unifications there.
As for the World Heavyweight and the WWE Championships I am constantly changing my mind on this. Honestly, there are a ton of legit top tier guys with hours of legit programming to go around every week ... so I have no problem at all with them being two separate titles. What I think SHOULD happen ... is every now and then one champ or the other should WANT to win the other title and go after it. Not really "unifying" but more or less attempting to hold both at the same time.
This person could then defend them separately ... maybe even be forced to in a PPV or something ... but it would be a fresh storyline and interesting to see for sure.
Just a thought though ... but in the end ... I am not all that unhappy with the number of titles in the WWE.
