I say reignite the brand split instead of unifying the titles! Who's with me!?!? That really wouldn't work anymore. The idea of treating RAW and SmackDown as equal is dead. If they went to a full brand split, all they would end up doing is putting the majority of the stars on RAW, and then sending 1-2 random "stars" to SD (either Punk, Bryan, Sheamus, or even Miz) who would just be the big fish in a small pond. Anyone who gets red hot and hugely over on SD will just get drafted to RAW. Imo the best course of action would be a restructured casual brand split with some crossover where RAW is focused on main event storylines and SD is focused on midcard storylines (with top guys still making appearances). And ideally there should be one top title, one upper midcard title (an actual upper MIDCARD champion, not one that they pretend is a main eventer), one lower midcard title, and one gimmick title (Hardcore/Cruiserweight).

I somehow see the match ending in controversy. Maybe Vacant unifies the title. Anything can happen in the blah blah blah...

Maybe since the word unification wasn't used both men will grab a title.

I just realized that tonight Triple H booked the match to possibly retire the title that was brought back for him.

Funny how the big gold belt was the second tier title, but it's all of a sudden an equal to the wwe championshjip because Cena has it.

You just KNOW they're gunna pull some funny bullshit out of their asses and we will still have 2 champions at the end of TLC.
They focused more on Big Show than this historic match and only have 2 weeks of buildup to go.

Next month after is the Rumble. They don't have any reason to delay unifying the belts when having Cena come back so soon, and win the belt with Sandow losing his cash-in all point to them wanting to unify the WWE and WHC Titles as fast as possible.

Cena will climb up the ladder and take off the WWE Title. Crowd cheers. Announcers say he wins. Then Orton pushes the ladder over, Cena falls. Orton sees the WHT still up there. Climbs up, grabs the WHT and poses. No one knows what's going on. Want to know. f*** you, watch Raw!
On Raw, Cena is the WWE Champion, Orton is the World Heavyweight Champion. Rematch on Raw, no one wins. Happy Holidays!

At TLC both men will climb the ladder and each one will grab the other belt. SO the match ends with Cena as WWE champ and Orton as WHC. At Royal Rumble they will unify the titles.

A "title swap" Dusty finish does seem like a possibility if you want to hang your hat on HHH's NWA obsession, but Cena did express his desire for one world champion. Plus I can see WWE wanting to play it conservatively and just unify the belts ahead of the Rumble, so as not to mess up the dynamic heading into WM. Although I would love to see another Royal Rumble with the title on the line a la 1992.

I just don't see them unifying both world titles on TLC of all shows. Had this been a more major PPV I would be more open to believing it. I expect a screwy finish but I'm not sure what finish they could do. I guess if it ends on a DQ both men keep their respective titles right?

With the way things are going right now, I can't say I would rule it out.

So a minor show getting this wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility.

They unified titles at Vengeance before, so why is them doing so at TLC so strange?

And it could eeeeever so slightly help the buyrate for that minor show, one that's usually one of the weaker ones in their schedule. I'm not saying they absolutely won't simply swap the titles (don't post that lame ass "let's just see" pic), but there are reasons as to why the odds of unification could go either way.
