It's still better than the spinner belt, but why are all titles starting to look the same? It's possibly copying the much more successful UFC or just an easy way of trying to make the titles equally important. After last night, that tells me not very important at all. So Stephanie said she doesn't consider UFC their competition, yet the company bows down to a former UFC Heavyweight champion after he left the WWE full time and now they design the belts similarly? Even just a handful of years ago, each title had its own look. Think about the iconic belt looks in wrestling history - Wingled Eagle, Big Gold, IC - Heavyweight and Oval, Attitude Era belt, Smokin' Skull, Ruthless Aggression Era title, European Title, the tag titles before the original brand split. Now this is what we get. Great.

I really can't believe people are more concerned with what a Championship looks like than they are whether or not Finn is going to be out long term. Because if he is, we all know what that means.

C'mon, they gotta do something......SOMETHING!!! They do.. i'm almost 99% sure we're getting Bayley. But like others after that horrible finish last night, I was waiting for Goldbergs music to hit. Sadly, we got nothing. Yeah and for the people saying no one wants Goldberg, I'm pretty sure 80% of that crowd was chanting his name and it may have been one of the loudest pops in forever.

I mean think about it.. after all this stuff with Conor McGregor and UFC fans calling the WWE "Fake" and what Conor does is "Real" Vince probably just threw that in there just to say "Hey, not everything we do is fake"

Denying their own identity is a big reason why I personally feel so disconnected from the current show.

Hell I was so pissed because I'm so sick of Brock standing tall in everything when he does absolutely nothing, I was hoping Randy would've gave him an RKO when Brock had his back away from him facing Shane.

No I watched it back and I think the ref told him to move out of the way so brock could f5 Shane lol

Absolutely, someone posted a picture of Orton backstage. That cut on his head looks jagged and deep.

Finn is going to come out and give up the fruit roll up women's belt after only 1 day as champ.
But more importantly, we might get Bayley's ass on RAW tonight!

Denying their own identity is a big reason why I personally feel so disconnected from the current show. Yet making each belt look the same and trying to copy UFC is denying their own identity. I prefer wrestling to MMA and there are some reasons for that. Sure UFC has no script or writers while the WWE does, but the WWE should do its own thing and be the unique thing that pulled in the fans in the first place. What works for one company might not work for another, like Russo trying to make WCW edgier.

If that is true what a disaster that balor/Rollins match was. All fans care about is a belt design and the 1st champions reign of this historic belt is less than a day.
