I could easily see the WWE giving a year plus title reign to Reigns or Rollins in the near future.I would believe more so Reigns who could get the title at WM 31 and go on a reign to beat Punk's record and turning heel like Punk did during his reign.He could work with the likes of Cena,Orton,Bryan,Ziggler,Ambrose,Sheamus,Rollins(if he turns babyface)and a youngster from NXT like Zayn.More then enough babyface he could work with and hopefully put on good matches with to keep things fresh and to get to that year plus title reign.

It's one of those things were he was blamed for it, even though you can see the real problem. The main events during his title reign were matches like John Cena vs Big Show and John Cena vs John Laurenitis. Thats something personally I don't buy into... So the main even is Cena vs Laurenitis, that doesn't mean im not gonna order the PPV, I dont like divas but I wouldn't base that dislike on weather or not im going to order a ppv or watch raw. Thats just my own oppinion though. I think the numbers just prove Punks reign was bad for buys. Obviously it wasn't bad enough to force creative to have him drop the belt, but since the network started WWE evidently has been a little more careful with who they're investing in. I think you missed the point. The cards in general were really bad, yet Punk was blamed for it. Remember, a lot of the PPVs during Punk's reign would only have about 4 matches actually promoted, then they'd throw in a random Ryback squash, random Brodus squash, random Primo & Epico/Prime Time Players tag team match etc. I think we had like 4 ppvs in a row where the only matches that were announced ahead of time were the Cena match, WWE title, World title and one other match.

I wish Cena just had the title for the past 7 years. It feels like he's had it that long anyway, with all the main events and short title runs he's had.
Seriously, ONE 6 year title reign >> 16 individual title reigns that last approximately a month. Some even lasted one night. And I feel that really cheapened the title. It's too late to do it now... but nobody should ever hold the title that much. Flair and HHH did it and that was kinda their thing. And it played into Flair being HHH's mentor. But Cena, Edge and Orton with their 10+ title reigns? No thanks.

I hope next in line to hold the title for long is Cesaro.

This sounds like a job for SuperCena! I hope John Cena wins # 16, loses in minutes at the Royal Rumble, then wins # 17 at WrestleMania, and has the longest WWE Champonship Title reign in Professional Sports Wrestling Entertainment history...by being part time, 4 defenses a year Champion!! Let's go Cena!!

Just let Cena win the title again to break Flair's record for title victories and then break Bruno's record of most consecutive days as champion. Seems like the perfect move for the company to make given how out of touch they are with everything else that goes on.

Nobody is entertaining enough to hold it that long.

Let me clarify: They won't remove the 434-day title reign from WWE history, but they are looking for a new guy to surpass that record with 434+ days.

Not sure I understand this "record" that Punk has....Especially seeing as how he is the 7th longest reigning WWE Champion. I didnt think 7th was a record. It was silly to say "longest reigning champion of modern era" during his run and it would be silly to say it after it.

People don't seem to know the difference between modern and contemporary, he has the longest reign amongst his contemporaries. But they screw that up and call it modern, all the WWE/WWF/WWWF champions were in the modern era.

I'd hate to see them try and erase it from history, but it wouldn't surprise me if they just stopped talking about it on the whole.
