Triple H and WWE have just introduced a new WWE world heavyweight title.
There were also some hidden jabs towards Roman Reigns, so we’ll see what’s that about
as well
Let’s start things off with the new world title for WWE
It’s been rumored for a while now that Triple H had improved the design and creation of
a new WWE world title and how it was coming to WWE television in the near future
Now initially, everyone thought that this new world title that Triple H was bringing
in would replace Roman’s two titles and how things would back to just one world champion
for the entire company
But that’s not exactly how things turned out, the rumors of a new world title did turn
out to be true, but that new title design wasn’t replacing Roman’s two titles
instead, it will now be its own separate world title, labeled as the WWE world heavyweight
championship
Triple H revealed the new world title on the April 24th edition of Raw
And it’s not really a ‘new’ title per say, you can basically say it’s the reincarnated
and updated version of the classic ‘big gold’ world heavyweight title
Looking at the title, you can notice right away that it’s most definitely inspired
by that classic world heavyweight title
It has the same similar outline on the center plate and similar designs all over, the only
big difference is that the title now features the WWE logo in the center
And the WWE logo being in the center of titles has been a big debate amongst fans for several
years now, but everyone agrees and understands that the the titles just have to the represent
and promote the WWE
So they have to put that big logo in the middle as basically free promotion and advertising
for the company for whoever sees the title
Sort of like when WWE gives the championship winning sports team a WWE title
The big athletes pose with the WWE title at the parades, everyone sees the big “W”,
and it’s easy promotion for the company
And the general fan reaction for this specific new title seems extremely more positive than
the last few titles WWE has revealed
Everyone remembers the big disappointment that the universal title was when it was first
revealed
Everyone thought that the Universal Title would be this great new and unique design
that’s separate from the WWE title
But then the title reveal took place, everyone saw that it was just the same exact WWE title
with a different color strap and that was a big let down
But at least in this case, it’s a new, reimagined, and updated version of the classic ‘big
gold’ world heavyweight title that everyone holds close to their hearts
Another big topic of discussion that some fans feel like instantly devalued the title
was some of Triple H’s remarks when introducing the championship
Triple H didn’t really present it as this new world title that was on the same level
as Roman’s titles
Instead, Triple H’s presentation of the title was him basically talking about how
Roman is approaching 1000 days as champion, how he works a limited schedule, and how no
one has been able to defeat him for three years
So as a result of that, they’re creating a new world title that will be defended by
a full time WWE superstar
So fans weren’t that hot about Triple H’s wording during that title reveal because it
really made the new world title seem like more of a consolation prize, and a runner-up
sort of title, rather than it being on equal and fair grounds with Roman’s titles
So that was one big complaint about Triple H’s wording and it definitely will be a
problem for the new world title
Everyone is still gonna look at Roman Reigns as the main champion that’s on top of the
food chart with the world heavyweight title being at second place under him
Despite both titles being labeled as world titles, that’s just the reality of it
Given his statue, his aura, his mystic, and his 1000 day milestone…
Ronan’s title will still feel just a bit more prestigious than this new title
Seth Rollins also cut a promo on what the new world title means to him, and a lot fans
said that Seth’s comments really did clean up what Triple H said and made fans care about
the new title
Similar to Triple H, Seth Rollins also took some subliminal shots towards Roman Reigns,
saying how the person who wins this new world title will be a fighting champion that’s
around 24/7
So that’s another weird and reoccurring topic here, Seth Rollins and Triple H both
took shots at Roman Reigns for his limited schedule
Obviously, everyone knows that Roman Reigns slowly shifted into a part time schedule in
2022, but we’ve never seen WWE acknowledge that fact on WWE television and verbally take
shots at Roman Reigns for his limited schedule
Even in the peak of Brock Lesnar’s WWE title runs in the mid 2010s when he was a big part
timer, no one really took heavy and constant shots like this at Brock’s schedule on WWE
television
So it is definitely strange to see that real life situation being brought onto WWE television
Some fans even wonder if it’s a way of showing some sort of power struggle going on between
Triple H and Vince McMahon
Does Vince McMahon want the titles to stay on Roman Reigns, so this is Triple H’s way
of taking some little jabs at Roman that’s actually meant towards Vince McMahon?
It’s hard to tell but the slander on Roman’s name is definitely strange
And you just know that Roman Reigns will have a field day talking about the new world title,
he’ll definitely poke fun right back at WWE and the other WWE superstars
He’ll most definitely mention in his return promo how no one could beat him so they just
created another world title
So the fact that there’s another world title and that situation has been fixed, fans are
also wondering just how long Roman will hold onto the undisputed universal title because
now there’s nothing really standing in the way
WWE has another world title and they’ll have a full time world champion, so does this
clear up everything for Roman to hold onto his title for more years to come?
It’s a question that’s being asked by fans
Another interesting theory and point that fans have also brought up is the idea of Roman
Reigns going after the world heavyweight championship
Of course in reality, there’s no shot at all of Roman Reigns capturing this new world
title because the whole point of its creation is to have a world champion opposite of Roman
But at least within the storyline world, Roman should be a little ticked off that WWE simply
created a new world title because no one could beat him, so does that motivate Roman to throw
his name into the hat and make a run for the world heavyweight championship himself?
It definitely seems like something his character would do and perfectly fits his persona
He always viewed himself as the number one champion in WWE even when he had just one
title
And having that sort of conqueror mentality that he has, Roman should set his eyes on
the world heavyweight title
It’s definitely something fans are talking about because it would just be ridiculous
if Roman captured it too
But if there’s some stipulation that Roman is banned from competing for the world heavyweight
title, a nice little bypass for Roman will be to send Solo Sikoa into the tournament
for the world heavyweight title
It’ll be a way for Roman to still have his hands on the world heavyweight title without
directly holding the title, and it’ll also push the storyline forward for The Bloodline’s
inner conflict
Roman Reigns picked Solo Sikoa to represent the Bloodline and try to capture the world
title, that’s just not gonna sit well with Jimmy Uso and especially Jey Uso, who has
been Roman’s right hand man for several years now
So in reality, Roman Reigns and The Bloodline definitely should be no where near the world
heavyweight title, but in the storyline world, Roman and The Bloodline should show interest
in it because it does fit Roman’s character to be interested in winning the title just
to stick it to WWE even more
Triple H, Seth Rollins, and all these superstars are taking these big open shots at Roman Reigns,
so the best way for him to get back at them is to try and at least put The Bloodline’s
fingerprints all over that new world title
So it’s definitely gonna be an interesting situation to keep an eye on
