WWE: 10 Ideas For Making The Miz, Dolph Ziggler & Zack Ryder Faction A Success
9. Create Their Own Title
Taking a play from the Million Dollar Man's play book, Ziggler, Miz, and Ryder could create their own title and defend it against all comers--perhaps the Internet Championship or something that similarly hearkens to their talent or gimmick in connecting with the fans. Of course, this approach only works if they work it so they always retain it (somehow), but it would make perfect sense considering they are being billed as "overlooked" talent, for them to create their own title. The rationale here would be that since they can't get their due title shots, they've created an "everyman's championship" as it were, and defend constantly and successfully to prove their superior qualities. Depending on if they are going to be heels or faces they could either defend them clean, dirty, or not at all because other superstars "aren't worthy contenders for the title". The point is that they'd be defending a title--and while some may say that there are actually plenty of titles in the WWE that aren't getting their proper due (Intercontinental and United States Titles....we're looking at you!), this would be more about a gimmick than an actual ongoing championship being introduced. It would help bring the title's holder into the WWE Heavyweight Championship contendership and could lead to some interesting developments explored in the next installment....
