Women's Secondary belts?

[john84]

I don't know if there's been discussion about this recently but I was just wondering what peoples thoughts were about there being a ''mid-card'' title for women whether it'd be on Raw, SmackDown or NXT?

Personally I don't think we're quite there yet for the women but was just wondering what everyone else's thoughts were.

They can't even do the tag team titles right consistently

Singles womens midcard title might work but it will default to the top women who aren't champs

Yeah, the way the WWE handles the tag divisions is ''disappointing'' shall I say? At the time it was announced they were doing tag belts for the women a part of me was like ''I'd have preferred a mid-card title first''.  But yeah thinking about it they'd probably put the belt on like a returning Charlotte or an Asuka, Bayley, Sasha.

Ah well lol.

Exactly

A new title does not mean more oppurtunity for the other women it just means more titles for the likes of the 4H to lug around.

Becky dissapeared we got charlotte on every show

Charlotte dissapeared and it all just defaulted to Sasha and Bayley with every belt

I am just waiting for the day because I am sure it is coming where they just shove all the 4H and the MMA 4H onto one brand and all the rest get shoved onto the other shows.

They could maybe make it work in NXT with the talent they have.

But I don’t trust the main rosters enough to make it work.

It's a nice thought, but they wouldn't be able to resist having the 4HW, Alexa or Asuka hog it.

If there's one thing this company does not need, it's more championships. Remember, both of the 'main brand' women's champions ALSO happen to be the Tag Team champions as well, meaning they aren't even bothering to write for those anymore and just using them as the prop of 'double champ' they've been playing to death since Becky won last year.

If anything, I'd rather they unify the branded titles (including the Universal/WWE Championships) and just make the champions work both shows like they already have been doing. Reduces the amount of championship matches to have on the shows and gives them a bit more breathing room for more unique stories.

There isn't enough women for a midcard division.

I think at that point, they'd have to move to having a Women's show to cover the additional feuds and story, or, alternatively, cut back on more men's titles (Drop the 24/7 belt, and either IC or US) and do even more women's stories that move between both shows.

Don't think you need them when each brand has its own belt. To add more individual belts would seem like overkill.

[MrElijah]

They can't even book the mid card belts they have now. And mind you one those belts is the 2nd oldest title in the company.

[Cranjis McBasketball]

They should just have titles for everyone. That way, every match is a title match and the story writes itself. They just swap titles forever and ever and ever and ever until the sun explodes.

[john84]

I see the consensus seems to be that it's a hard NO on the idea of a mid-card women's title. Least I have my answer to my question

[A Platypus Rave]

they can barely book the 4 women's divisions they have now...

I don't see how booking a new one would work.

[06vwgti]

somehow it will find its way to bayley or sasha

[Deleted]

Conceptually it's a good idea but in practice it wouldn't remotely work with the layout of the division right now.

You had me at "Drop the 24/7 belt."

kill the SD women's championship and make it the women's IC title

Do the same for the men, and ditch the US title.

There are far too many titles

The women's secondary title is winning a date with Angel Garza

A secondary women's title?


For NXT: Yes, definitely.

For the main roster(Raw/Smackdown): Hell No!
