Title: RAW 5/20
Post by: SupTool on May 20, 2019, 05:36:43 PM

We get the follow up to Money in the Bank


Foley will introduce a new title, rumours are either a new Hardcore or Legends title.

When Champions are appearing on the undercard of PPV events, there are too many titles already.

With that, and a 20 minute promo with Heyman and Lesnar, not looking forward to too much on RAW.

Reportedly a "Wild Card" Title; defended across brands and possibly with the 24/7 rule. Sigh...

Foley did say everyone, not every man.


After sleeping on it. I like the move. Spotlights others who wouldn't otherwise. And in the PG era it's the Hardcore without calling it Hardcore title

Of all the things to bring back, a 24/7 title?
Is this going to be a YouTube or WWE Network series?

Probably not but I'll bet you they'll fully utilize YouTube,  Twitter and other social media outlets since they get tons of views

It's a shame the Upfronts past already, this would be a good gimmick there.

I can see it now, Smackdown goes off the air with person A as champ, then RAW comes back on the next week and person K is champ. Then we get "in case you missed it on YouTube and Instagram, our 24/7 title had *10* new champions since Smackdown went off the air!"...

I've seen mostly positive thoughts online about this title. It's "entertaining" they say. Well, that's subjective, and I don't care for it.  :unknw_mini:

I know several people who would watch an impromptu live match to see if the title changed.  It's definitely a new way to take advantage of social media.

And a Fox Sports host momentarily held the belt.  Sheesh.

I have no problem with it. I thought it was funny

It's pretty clear that the entire concept is to give undercard guys something to do who otherwise would have nothing.
I am curious what one wins by becoming a champion for five minutes though.
