I've always thought no, but after all of the hotly-debated recent views on the topic, I created this thread to really address the possibility that it very well could.
If the two big belts were unified, then a large group of lower main event superstars would probably rarely, if ever, see another WWE Title match/Title run, such as the Hardys, JBL, CM Punk, HBK, Big Show, etc. etc. However, this could very well then put all of these guys back into the mid-card belts' divisions, and bring some MUCH-NEEDED credibility back to these belts. Seeing HBK vs. Jeff Hardy for the I.C. Belt in this day and age would be a true classic. The tag belts could also get some MUCH-NEEDED attention..... anyone want to see the Hardys vs. Edge & Christian in a TLC Match one last time for the titles??? Also, if they did this, more feuds could arise in the WWE, and I don't mean trivial ones that are resolved in a month, or on an episode of Raw, but I mean year-long, heated ones full of hatred, a la Jericho/HBK that we got to see last year. Now imagine if we could get moer of these such feuds-- well we could, if certain big names werent constantly in world title contention! Another plus could come in the fact that, if they were unified, it would open up the opportunity of having another undercard belt or two brought back for contention, such as the Cruiserweight Title, Hardcore Title, or Euro Title.
The only drawbacks of doing this would be that the big title would then be only passed around between the likes of Cena, HHH, Orton, Batista, 'Taker, and a few others. Also, some guys' careers might suffer a little bit, since they might not reach the level of success the could have pre-title unification... However, on the flip side of all of that, the big title in the WWE would matter again, as matches for it would be alot more epic and defined, and there would be that 'sole guy' in the WWE again that would be 'the undispted' best- he would just have to appear on both shows, or they could work it out somehow... Plus, the WWE Undisputed Champion sounds BADASS.
What are your thoughts on all of this? Its just an idea...
