Calling it the Undisputed title is kinda dumb, but I like the design.
My only question is which lineage it keeps. I don't think they'd retire the WWE championship, it's the one with over 60 years of history, the one Bruno, Hogan, Andre, Savage, Austin, Rock, Cena, HHH, held.
Getting rid of it would be beyond stupid.

So, Vince and company just love writing their way to corners, don't they?
If:
They continue the lineage of the Universal Championship, they wipe away 60+ years of the history of the WWE Championship.
Or,
They continue the lineage of the WWE Championship, wiping out the 1,000+ day reign of Roman Reigns, essentially rendering his reign pointless.
If I could hazard a guess, they'll continue billing it as the Undisputed WWE Championship until Roman loses, quietly retire the Universal portion of it's lineage and call it the WWE World Championship again. Still stupid nevertheless.

They did this before when they merged the world heavyweight and wwe title. Eventually, they’ll drop “universal”, it’ll just be undisputed championship or WWE championship. They’re not dropping the wwe lineage. They’re merging them.
I kind of love it, ngl. All the gold. I’m used to the wwe logo by now, and I’m a sucker for the red attitude underline. Gonna miss Roman swinging them belts doe

Glad they got rid of the Universal, belt sucked from the beginning
Doesn't erase the problems the World Heavyweight Title have in existing, but at least there are only two titles again
That being said... that design is f***ing ugly, like we traded in a gaudy colored championship, and a completely competently designed belt, for the competently designed belt to now look like it got dipped in Honey Mustard Sauce... not really a fan lol.

Nothing like ending a 60+ year lineage with a ton of legends that will not be replicated in any way...just because you want to continue a stupid reign that next to no one cares about except yourselves.

By the time mania 40 rolls around Roman will have held the wwe title for 2 years which also nobody has done since the 80s. I think the Universal title continues its lineage till Roman drops the titles

They could have gotten rid of the "Universal" aspect if Cody were champion. They'd respect the lineage more rather than be concerned about Reigns' meaningless records. I hope the WWF/WWWF lineage doesn't go away. The New title design is kind of ugly, too.

The more I think about it, the more confident I feel that they’re not ending the lineage. Why would they make such a big deal about it just to be like “welp, none of that history matters now.” My guess is they merge the lineage of the two belts and call it a day. |

I mean, they did it with their tag belts that were around for 35 years...and kept the lineage that started by being co-held by murderer. Like...I get eliminating the original Women's title lineage since Moolah "holding it" for 28 years makes it look ridiculous, but they should honestly keep all the other lineages. |

They've been introducing the same belt design over and over for almost a decade.

It looks like someone peed on it.
Also calling it “ Undisputed” makes no sense anymore with another world title on the other brand.

So Cody is going to save the WWE Title from disappearing right? Right?

I can't wait until that belt is eventually merge with the other new title. One day they gonna merge that belt with a new new world title and it's gonna be a title too many and the belts gonna explode. Each belt will fly to another part of the world like when Shenron disappears.

Same shit, different pile. Honestly, I'd rather go with a different belt design altogether. Never was a fan of that one.

It was so simple.
All they had to do was have Roman drop the WWE title to Cody at Mania. He could have even kept the Universal belt and got his 1000 days.
But no that would be too simple, now we have a new unessecary title and whatever the hell this thing is.
f***s sake WWE.
