Which Title Does Elias Think WWE Should Rename?

"It's essentially [insert name's] title".

Elias told SportsKeeda that WWE should just rename the 24/7 Title in honour of 42-time champ R-Truth.

SmackDown's music man said the belt was "a really fun and creative idea" when it started in May 2019, but has since become "over the top". Furthermore, Elias doesn't think there's any point in pretending that it's not a plaything for Truth.

Truth's comedy character has pretty much existed exclusively in the wacky 24/7 universe since last year - his 42 reigns are obviously unrivalled by anyone else in WWE. Mojo Rawley (seven reigns), Drake Maverick (six) and Akira Tozawa (five) are the closest to matching his haul.

"Closest".

Elias himself is a former four-time titleholder. He has held the undercard belt for a combined 14 days across those four stints, but it seems the heel has moved on from 24/7 dreams. It also seems he'd encourage everyone else to do the same...except R-Truth.

Do you think WWE should rename the 24/7 Title in honour of R-Truth? Or, do you think the title has run its course and that the company should just abolish the comedy belt and move on?
