10 Changes WWE Will Make Post-Vince McMahon

5. Greater Emphasis On Midcard Titles

To Vince McMahon, most championships in WWE are mere props only good for boosting a worker's profile in the short-term. The once-proud Intercontinental and United States belts, for example, are often passed around like toys; 'OK, Ricochet has had a shot of it! Now, give it to Gunther to play with!'.

Not many fans enjoy that way of doing things, and they'd much rather see each title get its proper place in the context of WWE shows. Bobby Lashley should be every bit as proud of being US Champ as Roman Reigns is of being Undisputed and Bianca Belair is of being Raw Women's, basically.

Greater emphasis on those prizes is essential going forwards.

Trips is a bit of a wrestling historian, so he won't be turning his nose up at the IC or Tag-Team Titles (at least not with the ignorance that McMahon did). Finally, midcard belts could become important yet again. They deserve the spotlight.
