Just to give the lower-lower card something to do? A lot of it seems like "filler;" I feel like a TV title, that's defended every Raw, could really do wonders to spice up the wandering "now it's Miz and Kofi for the umpteenth time," "Brodus R Srs," type feuds going on.
What do you think?

We have too many titles as is. No more titles, it just devalues them all the more and adds to the clutter.
If I had it my way, I'd get rid of the US title too. Forcing the WWE to actually give a damn about the tag and the IC titles again in theory.

It should be
- WWE (World Heavyweight) Title for the top guys - Intercontinental Title for guys on the cusp or for the demoted main event guys like Miz, Ziggler and Ryback. - Bring back the European Title or make a brand new Television Championship for the lower card. - Bring back the Hardcore Title as the gimmick belt and let the high flying/faster paced wrestlers (both Cruiserweight and non-Cruiserweight) fight over that in relaxed rules matches where they can use the ringside area and OCCASIONALLY bust out weapons.

A TV title sounds nice in theory, but after a couple of weeks it will lose it's luster and people will stop caring a sh** about it.

They're not even using the midcard belts they have now properly. Hell nah.

Diva's tag belts are the way forward.

No, we don't even have midcard storylines at the moment. Adding another title to get lost in the shuffle is stupid.

Diva's tag belts are the way forward. Yea I guess this is the only one I can see feasible if the WWE just randomly decides to push the diva's division. With 1 title, they would have a hard time booking more than 3-4 divas at a time so a tag belt can help mend that problem.

yes, I'd love it. I'm perfectly happy seeing a guy wearing a belt or carrying it over his shoulder. I don't care if they don't do anything more than that with the belts
Boxing has belts for weight classes that I'm sure hardly anyone cares about. Professional team sports crown winners down to division levels frequently allowing six-to-eight, or even more, teams to claim to be champions of something.
I'd like it if WWE was the same way

No, just have midcarders, and main eventers too, feud with each other like every other decade ever. If you need a belt to get over, then I don't know what to tell you.

I have always liked the idea of bringing back the Hardcore Title as it would give guys who don't have anything to do something to do and guys who aren't particularly over would be able to get reactions by using plunder, but with the caveat that the 24/7 rule is abolished.

but with the caveat that the 24/7 rule is abolished. Why shouldn't Big Johnny be able to pin Yoshi Tatsu in an airport for it? With social media, it'd be great to see wrestlers uploading videos of themselves attacking the champion in random places and winning the title.

I really wouldn't mind the return of a Cruiserweight/Light-Heavyweight Title.
They have lots of smaller guys that don't get much TV time anymore, so I would hope that having a belt for them could help them out a bit. I'd enjoy seeing more matches on TV between Justin Gabriel, Drew McIntyre, Sin Cara, Rey Mysterio, & JTG. They could also have a good use for others that they call up such as Sami Zane & Adrian Neville. Even if they were to sign guys like Prince Devitt or Alex Shelley, they'll have heaps of talent to fill up the division.

There's already two midcard belts going unused if they want to push the midcard.

There's already two midcard belts going unused if they want to push the midcard. Exactly. If the WWE wanted to push the Justin Gabriels and Yoshi Tatsus of the world, then they would have been consistently involved in the IC/US/Tag title scenes. They aren't pushed because the WWE doesn't want to push them, not because of a lack of space in the midcard.

No! No! No! Stop with the f***ing titles. Major, midcard, tag titles and if you insist, women's. That's all.

I like this idea. They need to have actual feuds as well rather than "So-and-so has just pinned the Intercontinental Champion!" and then so-and-so gets a title match.

I think the Hardcore title should make a return. The matches were always a lot of fun and, with the size of the roster, there are plenty of lowercard guys with nothing at all to do who could compete for it. Plus 24/7 rules made for some hilarious segments and impromptu matches.

The lower card is always going to feel like filler because it's the lower card. A meaningless title isn't going to change that.
