They had to make custom belts for Shorty as the previous ones were too big!

It only means something with limited titles.
Joe, Angle, Lashley in TNA.
Lance Storm in WCW.
The Two Man Power Trip. Even Naito.
It can work and be mega badass. But WWE has 400 titles, having this many multiple champions is a demonstration of how bloated their title scene is and how limited the TV time is despite having the greatest roster in wrestling history.

I mean, the Becky one was undone almost immediately at least, and the Keith Lee one works for the purpose of elevating the Cole match and really trying to play it as the biggest fight in the history of NXT like they were talking it up as. Bayley's pointless on the face of it but I guess it's a mix of she's out of challengers but they're dragging the reign out for some reason (same logic went into Becky spending a few months around the Women's Tag titles last year), the tag division's a joke that needs all the help it can get, and for some reason they decided she and Sasha need as many bad promos as possible on all three brands. especially because Sasha and Bayley have been on the shit or get off the pot part of their obvious upcoming feud for like... 2 years. Thing is, Bayley sucks as a heel and Sasha is injury prone so we may never even get that resolution.

I don’t mind when someone holds a singles and tag title simultaneously, but holding two singles titles takes opportunities away from other wrestlers. This should be kept to an absolute minimum.

it's something that should happen relatively rarely so it looks like a big deal... if everyone is running around with two titles it diminishes it...

If you’re doing the 2 belt gimmick every few months then you probably have too many title belts

I may be misremembering, but hasn’t Miz held two belts more than once?
*double checks*
He did, very briefly, when he and Cena won and lost the tag titles on an episode of Raw when Miz was WWE Champion.
How many times has someone held multiple belts more than once?

I may be misremembering, but hasn’t Miz held two belts more than once? *double checks* He did, very briefly, when he and Cena won and lost the tag titles on an episode of Raw when Miz was WWE Champion. How many times has someone held multiple belts more than once? Diesel has been a double champion for a day, twice. In 1994, he and Shawn Michaels won the World Tag Team Championship the day before SummerSlam but then at the PPV itself, Diesel dropped the Intercontinental Championship to Razor Ramon. In 1995, while Diesel was reigning as WWF Champion, he and Shawn won the tag titles at In Your House 3, but Yokozuna and Owen Hart got the tag titles back the next night on Raw. Shawn Michaels has been a double champion twice as well. When he and Diesel won the tag titles in 1995, Shawn was also Intercontinental Champion at the time. Then in 1997, Shawn held the WWF Championship and European Championship simultaneously. Stone Cold Steve Austin has been a double champion three times. In 1997, when he won the Intercontinental Championship from Owen Hart at SummerSlam, he was also tag team champions with Dude Love. In 1998, he wins the tag titles with Undertaker while reigning as WWF Champion. In 2001, he wins the tag titles with Triple H while reigning as WWF Champion as well. An argument could be made for Chris Jericho but he would count on technicalities. He definitely counts as a double champion during his tag team title run with The Rock in 2001 while he also holds the WCW Championship. Earlier in the year, while holding the tag titles with Chris Benoit, Jericho briefly becomes Hardcore Champion as well, winning it from Big Show but immediately losing it to Rhyno due to the 24/7 rule. I would personally count his run as Undisputed Champion in late 2001 as one championship represented by two titles rather than being a double champion. Kane has done it twice, holding the WWF and WCW Tag Team Championships simultaneously in 2001, then the Intercontinental and Tag Team Championship simultaneously in 2002. The Miz did it twice but barely counts. He holds the United States Championship along with the Unified Tag Team Championship in 2010, whereas during his 2011 WWE Championship run, he and John Cena hold the tag titles for all of about 10 minutes if that. Seth Rollins has surprisingly been a double champion three times already. He held the WWE Championship and United States Championship together for about a month in 2015. He held the Intercontinental Championship and Raw Tag Team Championship simultaneously during his 2018 feud with Dean Ambrose. Most recently, he and Braun Strowman won the Raw tag titles in 2019 while Seth was also Universal Champion.
