    I don't know about that, it seems like Styles is in line to get the title soon and if he keeps putting on matches like has been since WrestleMania, that title won't lose anything

      I don't understand the logic in this at all. Yes Raw is the big show, but honestly I'm more invested in Smackdown.
      That's what I don't get. Does anyone remember when Heyman was running SD and it was regularly kicking Raws ### every week?

        Yes that belt needs to come off of Dean ASAP.

            Let's talk about a positive, I really enjoyed Finn winning. Was a little shocked as I wasn't sure they'd quickly give him the title. His PPV debut, he won the Raw Title.

            Anyway, I feel like they could do a long feud with Finn and Seth, them trading the title back and forth. I'm talking them feuding for like a year. Finn is sometimes Finn, and is sometimes Demon King.

              Until it turns up on Smackdown in a few years like the way it happened last time. Just sayin...

              And how'd that work out? For starters they thought they were ****ing Heyman over by giving him nothing on Smackdown and taking all the talent for Raw. Over course that shows what they know because they didn't realize how good the Smackdown 6 were and Heyman used them to kick Raw's *** every week until they raided him for all his talent and booted him from the company for being too good against they're flagship. This is what I'm trying to tell y'all

              The WWE title is on Smackdown right now for a reason. It's the same reason it went there initially in the first brand split. In order to legitimize Smackdown they sent THE title over there and allowed the brand to be built up enough to keep making them money and once it was they shipped the title off to Raw, the show that didn't exactly NEED that belt. But it's the flagship so that's what we ended up with.

                I could see that. Somehow the champions get traded and Shane and Daniel decide to change the belt from red to blue.

                  I don't like the name Universal Champion. It just doesn't sound right to me. I think Universe Champion sounds better.

                    You're missing a very crucial element. Smackdown was on regular TV while it is now on cable. Both shows have the same network to answer to. That's why I think it will be different this time around.

                          You can believe this article or not. But NoDq.com was told by WWE that it was a planned finish. Spoilered by of the picture in the article (Orton post-match).

                            And now there are reports that Jericho and Lesnar got into an argument backstage. That led to HHH breaking it up once and then Vince doing it later on.

                            The ending of the Randy Orton vs. Brock Lesnar SummerSlam match, which went pretty much as planned, led to a verbal and somewhat physical confrontation between Lesnar and Chris Jericho last night.

                              Yeah I agree. I'm souring on Ambrose very quickly. I can't remember the last time I got really into one of his matches. I really wish Ziggler had won. Ziggler v Styles would have a way higher chance of 5 stars than Ambrose v Styles in my opinion.

                                Yeah it's really rare to see Ziggler have a bad match. I've noticed Ambrose only works well with certain people.
