Following Clash at the Castle, fan sentiment toward splitting the two WWE Championships is louder than ever, and it seems like Drew McIntyre thinks it might be a good idea.
Ahead of his match against Roman Reigns at WWE Clash at the Castle, Drew McIntyre spoke with Inside The Ropes to discuss a wide variety of topics. When asked about the possibility of splitting the WWE Championship and the Universal Championship in the future, McIntyre thinks it might not be a bad idea.
“I mean, there’s no talk to me about any plan whatsoever,” Drew McIntyre said. “That’s truth, and generally, I don’t like to find it til the last minute because things change so much anyway, but splitting the titles may not be a bad thing if it’s possible. And I’ve been seeing it constantly on TV and in media. I do believe the titles deserve to be represented in an appropriate manner, which means being on the show.
“When they’re both together, they can’t be on both shows. The weekend live events, the media interviews right now, the title should be represented should be very visible. There’s a certain honor and prestige to those titles, and they used to be defended every 30 days, and we’ve lost that somewhere along the line. And they’re fine right now. They’re on a huge star like Roman Reigns, but at the same time, I do believe they need to be on the show. And there’s more emphasis on wrestling right now. It would be nice if the champion would wrestle.”
