10 Things WWE Needs To Stop Doing IMMEDIATELY

1. No World Title Presence On Raw

Whether the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship is once again split into two separate entities or not, there absolutely needs to be a World Title presence on Raw once WrestleMania 39 is in the rear-view mirror.

It's long been reported how WWE has discussed splitting the two belts that are currently in the possession of Roman Reigns, and likewise there have been rumblings that USA Network executives are keen to have a World Championship on the Monday night flagship show. After all, if USA Network sees the company's biggest prize(s) over on FOX on a Friday evening, they can't help but feel a little short-changed when Raw's biggest slice of gold for its men's roster is the secondary United States Title.

As alluded to, WWE has a couple of options on this front. The most logical may well indeed be to re-establish the WWE Championship and WWE Universal Championship as individual beasts, with one of those titles housed on Raw and one based on SmackDown. Should WWE decide that it still doesn't want to split these belts, the other sensible option would be to have the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion actually appear on Raw on a regular basis.

Granted, Roman Reigns and his schedule means that the Tribal Chief doesn't necessary appear on every single episode of SmackDown, but it's laughable how few Raw appearances Roman has made on Raw since taking that brand's top title from Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 38.
