Truth has been all types of entertaining with this belt so far.

I'm really liking this concept so far. I just wish the belt either looked good or so bad it's good. Now it's just bad.

I love how everyone is having fun with it. Seems good for lockerroom morale too, besides just entertaining fans.

If Finlay comes out of retirement for even a few minutes and is champion just for those minutes, I will probably go insane.

I know the stupid ugly ass belt works when I got worried Jinder would pin R-Truth.

I was really meh on this. But so far it’s been fun. The novelty could wear off quick. But it’s good for now.

After seeing it on Smackdown right before a MITB mention, it got me thinking that it would be cool if they added some stipulation to the belt. My two ideas are: 1) Set a length limit that someone has to hold the belt, and if they reach that mark, they get a championship match for one of the other belts. So like if the goal is 90 days, and say Cesaro gets it and he’s at day 81, there’s some intrigue over whether he can hang onto it long enough. 2) Same idea of having it lead to a bigger title match, but play on the Wild Card theme by having it basically be a ticking bomb. Nobody knows when it is going to go off, but when it does, the person that currently has it gets the title shot. Adds in urgency in a different way where you never know when you could get a huge opportunity. Just spitballing some ideas to maybe add to it. Like I've said before: hold it for 30 days, get a $100,000 bonus.

I ship Truth and Carmella so hard. I found it cute when she was trying to help him as they ran through the backstage area.

Now if he goes postal and starts to demolish R-Truth with a shillelagh, then I’ll be down for a Finlay reign

Damnit R-Truth, you coward!
I propose we turn this thread to the official 24/7 thread so we can track what the heck is going on from social media.

R-Truth is making this work for the time being. The guy is entertaining and fun.

Drake Maverick has been putting a lot of effort into getting this over, too. All those flyers are his doing.

Not really surprising that the actually kind of fun and entertaining thing is something that lets people be entertaining as performers doing their own thing without needing Vince micromanaging scripts for them. It might wear its welcome out before too long, but for now the idea of something people can have fun on social media with is way more appealing than the actual on-screen product. Truth is knocking it out of the park with these.

I really like this. It’s taking one of the very few things from the Attitude Era that hasn't aged horribly and repackaging it for a new generation, and so far seems to be just as fun.
The funny thing is at the time, I really didn’t care for the 24/7 Rule Hardcore Title.
Age and retrospect are a hell of a thing.
