The Mat Men Podcast (who broke the NXT to Tuesdays story) reported that the Million Dollar Title is being brought back in some capacity. I presume for the current Cameron Grimes storyline.

I'd really rather just not? If you're going to do the novelty title thing, just make one that people will actually associate with the person carrying it around. Is there anyone who's really like, "Yes, I remember the glory days of that Ted DiBiase Jr. vs. Goldust feud over it!" or really even Austin carrying it around? It's so firmly Ted Sr.'s that it doesn't really do anything for anyone else and feels about equivalent to if someone went around with the WWE title with the nWo logo spraypainted on it.

I guess they want to sell more replicas so need to give it some TV time!

I don’t know, I’ve always loved the million dollar belt. Virgil winning it from DiBiase at the Garden was a huge moment.

I want Grimes to Grime-ify the belt, putting like touch screens that show Grimes NFTs on it

I've always thought the Million Dollar Belt would make a much better prop for Money in the Bank than a briefcase.

Pretty smart. Introducing more titles lowers the percentage Kenny Omega can acquire.

Makes sense, and it'd be great if this leads to Grimes either getting it, or making his own version.
I'm all for a lower card belt for Grimes to do something with.

I hope it can be defended anytime, anyplace.

Idk if they'll actually use it as a real belt to be defended but it would make sense for Cameron Grimes to use it as a prop since he's literally feuding with Dibiase right now.

F***, I would genuinely mark if Kenny Omega randomly appears on NXT just to fight Cameron Grimes for the Million Dollar Belt. On the topic, the execution could be fun, especially if you just say, like, Grimes got it in a random auction from the fallout of the Dibiase kid scandal or something less serious.

Is next week's Million Dollar Face Off is going to end with DiBiase becoming Grimes' manager?

Belt? I think Grimes should get some Million Dollar suspenders.
Rings are passe'.

Must have wanted to nail it down before Tony Khan started looking into reviving it.
They'd probably want merge it with the FTW title.
The "F-The-Million-Dollar-World" title.
EDIT: any other inaligned titles to add to the pile?
