so in essence since they merged the 2 titles, what happens with the title lineage now?
Good luck trying to work that out now lol

How can they still call it the Undisputed championship when they created a new world title?
Titles should have been merged before they created a new one too. Such a clusterheck.
Mostly forgettable SD, although the last 10 minutes was good.

Better than the ugly Raw one I suppose.
Hard to think of them as equivalent when the champion didn’t lose either of his 2 belts.

It's a weird show, hey? An hour and 45 of it ranges anywhere from skippable to completely unwatchable... then you get this storyline at the end that engrosses you.
It's like we've got the same shitty, uncreative wrestling "writers" that we've endured for 2 decades writing 90% of it, then off to the side is one of Hollywood's best writers.
I have to feel this is Heyman delivering his creative magnum opus. It has to be a Heyman story cos it's so different to everything else on the show. (Everything else on the show for the last 2 decades!)
Another one of the reasons I'm loving it so much slapped me in the face today when Solo said "they're my brothers" and joined the Usos. It's because in WWE the story has always been told through the babyface/protagonist's eyes - you can see it on the other show, where everything in the main event is viewed through Cody's eyes.
We're generally presented heels who are complete jerks, completely unreasonable in their justification... but another of the reasons this works so well is because, depending on the week, we're seeing the story through a different person's eyes. Today we saw it through Solo's eyes more than we have in the past. At NOC we saw it through Jimmy's eyes. In the weeks after WM we were seeing it through Jey's eyes. We even see it through Heyman's eyes on occasions.
It's so untypical of WWE that they've got this longterm, central heel character - that's more a WCW/NWA thing. And on top of that, he's barely the focus - the real focus is everything happening around him.
(By the way... "Jey will do what he always does. He'll fall in line." What a great little line, said right at the end without a mic, to get you to watch again next week. Such a tiny thing, but such a great impact.)

Butch will get In as Money In The Bank is in England. Will get a very good crowd reaction
Also don’t mind giving some shine to the less established talent, they need to try and build stars now more than ever.
Bloodline story has to now be at least considered and in the conversation for best storyline in wrestling history.
Pretty Deadly wtf is that crap my god and I thought Hit Row were bad
Title belt should of always been gold like that.
No way would they change the design considering the main stream exposure it’s had with winning sporting teams in America.

So what happens now do the raw and smackdown titles get binned now that there is one belt to represent both?

Common sense is and was too give it to one of the members of the Judgement Day with a swerve storyline that they can beat someoe up 3 on 1 and have the other pin for the win and what not. Probably give it to Dominik and have him tease Seth with it, but then have him use it to win the IC title perhaps as a different spin on it. So Dom basically just pinning a knocked out Gunther for example
Shaxx I noticed your laugh reaction.
Keen to know your thoughts?
Would it not be in the considered as one of top all time wrestling stories?

they will most likely have a 2nd chance match for the losers of the qualifiers.

let's throw it open to everyone. what do you consider as some of the all time wrestling stories?
Austin/McMahon, Megapowers, nWo...
It’s a great question.
They are the 3 that definitely spring to mind. I think the Bloodline story from its beginning 3 years ago definitely fits into this category comfortably.
Austin/McMahon in my opinion is wrestlings greatest rivalry.
Nwo Austin/McMahon and bloodline for me. Nothing else today is even close

The Evolution story arc was very good as well and in a way similar to the Bloodline story.

you can argue that it failed with Orton, and they had to course correct it with Batista.
