Was the WWF/E product actually better with weight classes?

No, that is not what I am saying. I am saying they shouldn't​ have a weekly show dedicated to the cruiserweight championship. With the cruiserweights having their own weekly show and having matches on RAW makes it look like that title is more important than the others especially the World or Universal championships. I am not saying forget about it or any of their other titles, but anyone involved with the WWE should be making sure the focus is on the top titles. (world/Universal) The cruiserweights having their own weekly 205 live show just limits the whole company. Because now they all look like they are guys that can only wrestle small guys instead of guys who can help advance the Tag Team championships, United States championship, Intercontinental championship, Universal championship or World championship.

But clearly there are cruiserweights like Neville and Balor can wrestle guys who are larger than them and make it believable. The Hitman, Jericho, HBK and Styles have made careers out of it. You think Rey Mysterio wrestling and beating Big Show is more believable than a guy like Seth wrestling Strowman? how about Roman wrestling Strowman? Because I look at Seth and Roman and while he's taller I don't think Roman is really all that much bigger than Seth.

Speaking of weight classes, they introduce the Cruiserweight division, have two of their biggest names get misused and walk out, while half the roster isn't really used. They put their faith now in a guy who had extreme heat in the locker room who is a glorified manager and a luchador who has largely been missing from TV for months to now carry it.



As for the rest of the roster, oh lordy.

Their current WWE champion is purely being used to build the name up in the India markets, 100%. Classes don't matter here, so far he's gone through Orton and Nakamura, two different size and style guys and won. Its all been so largely unmemorable. All I can remember is the face Orton made when he put a Singh brother through a table, Great Khali coming out, and his cheesy racist promo, other than that, so forgettable.

Their current WWE Universal champion is a novelty guy who is around every other month at best. He's only given big guys like Roman, Braun, Big Show, Samoey Joey, Taker as of late. Supposedly Finn will be going up against him in the near future, but isn't the plan to have Roman face Brock again at WrestleMania? This one seems to revolve around big guys, but this seems to be by default?

Their current Intercontinental champion is a guy who largely doesn't defend the title nearly enough and its reminiscent of Dean Ambrose Shield/US title run, he's just holding the belt to break records. When he does defend it, its always outside interference that gets him the win, so boring, so predictable. He was nothing until he cut a merely OK at best promo on a beloved Daniel Bryan, but to me, he's still merely OK at best. 2017 was largely the Ambrose & Miz show with the title, there hasn't been much of a market for the IC title.

Their current US champion scene actually has the most potential, there are at least three guys going for the belt as of this past Sunday, there's a glimmer of variety there, but its paper thin.

I know I kind of went off track from the topic of the weights and my take on the titles, but gosh dang the current product sucks so bad.
