Traditionally speaking, a champion in wrestling or boxing is only "undisputed" if they hold ALL the world titles. Neither Auska or Roman even hold all the World titles in the WWE.

Hell, there's only ever been one time when the Women's title was more disputed and that's when Laycool were each carrying half of the belt and the Divas Title was still around on the other show.

Because WWE doesn’t get what “Undisputed” means Side note: they also tend to forget what "anniversary" means. See the 25th WrestleMania.

I'm telling y'all, it's a tie in with Fox and they're setting up a Skip Bayless v. Asuka match.
Also it makes sense for Roman to cling to "Undisputed". He united the WWE and Universal titles, which in WWE land ties together the NWA, WCW, ECW, WHC, WWE, and Universal titles.
Why should he acknowledge a title made because he can't be beaten?

I think it’s worse how they give sports teams replica belts with that teams logo on the side plates. You just reached the heights on your profession, here’s a useless belt you can tweet of picture of. “Any publicity is good publicity” Lee Harvey Oswald.

It is held by a dude he has never beaten though.

You just reached the heights on your profession, here’s a useless belt you can tweet of picture of. “Any publicity is good publicity” Lee Harvey Oswald. Definitely understand the sentiment but most of these athletes you see with the belt are huge fans of WWE. If they were doing it solely for marketing purposes and having people who aren't into wrestling at all and giving them titles then yeah.

They hand over a belt to anyone who wins anything. They don’t give them to specific players. They give them to the team. So every player on the Vegas Golden Knights are super WWE fans? I’d give you another example but that’s the only winning team I know this season.

R Truth needs to return from injury and dispute the titles thus fixing this timeline.

Patrick Mahomes walking around with the WWE title for days everywhere after winning the Super Bowl? Brands pay these athletes hundreds of thousands of dollars to do something WWE can accomplish by mailing them a belt.

I mean... most of the time, the best player on the team is wearing the belt at the Victory Parade, so (or at least Patrick Mahomes did.... one of the major faces of the most popular professional sports team in the US). I think the teams love getting these.
