4 ways to make the WWE Championship feel important again 

The WWE Championship is the most prestigious title in sports entertainment. Over the years the championship has been held by many great wrestlers, and the title gave a significant boost to their careers too. Last year, Jinder Mahal lost his WWE Championship to AJ Styles, and since then Styles has continued to impress the fans with his in-ring work.

He also defended the title against many wrestlers, and this is what makes him a fighting champion. It's almost been a year since his title victory, and now, as the time goes on, his title reign is becoming stale. Styles is not the reason for this; it is the way WWE is booking him.

If this continues to happen then the title will lose all the value it had before. Let's take a look at four ways to save the title from getting wrecked.

#4 Let it headline any major WWE pay-per-view

Daniel Bryan with the championships

The WWE pay-per-view calendar consists of 4 major PPVs: the Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, Summerslam and Survivor Series.

So far the Universal Championship has been getting the main event treatment from the company, but the same isn't the case with the WWE Championship. The first ever women's Royal Rumble match headlined this pay-per-view, whereas Roman Reigns continued to main event Wrestlemania.

At Summerslam, Reigns again became the headliner. Survivor Series is yet to happen (and it's likely that the WWE Championship match will not headline it).

Other than that, two major shows also happened outside of the United States of America known as the Greatest Royal Rumble and the WWE Super Show-Down. Again, the WWE Championship didn't headline any of these shows.

Fans showed their frustration to the WWE as they want the world title to become the main event thing again. However, WWE seems hellbent on doing otherwise.

#3 New rivalry with the old story

Styles and Nakamura

After winning this year's Royal Rumble match, Shinsuke Nakamura started his rivalry with WWE Champion AJ Styles. At Wrestlemania, the dream match between these two superstars also happened, but Nakamura lost the match, only to turn heel later. After that, Samoa Joe entered into the title scene and again WWE used boring storylines only to stretch the rivalry for some more weeks.

Now Styles is going to feud with Daniel Bryan as he is scheduled to defend his title against him at WWE Crown Jewel.

The WWE is doing similar things with the Universal Championship but they have to see the where the problem is and fix it. An extended feud is not always the right to do and they could still provide an intense rivalry without stretching the feud so much.

During the Attitude Era, feuds were not supposed to be short and this idea turned out to be beneficial for the company because the storylines were fresh and interesting. However, nowadays the feuds are new but the stories in them are almost the same.

WWE should try new things to entertain the fans and should focus more on building the story then extending it.

#2 New Champion

WWE Championship

Even though he is a great champion but we have to admit the fact that Styles' title reign is becoming old day by day. He is doing his job with perfection, but I think he should have dropped the title against Shinsuke Nakamura or Samoa Joe.

At this moment, a lot of fans will agree with this fact that a new champion can do new things for the audience which will again make this championship the most prestigious in the world.

WWE did the same mistake with the Universal Championship by letting Brock Lesnar retain it on many events but now Roman Reigns has captured the title and it seems like the title is in the same hands.

Currently, Styles is going to defend it against Daniel Bryan at the WWE Crown Jewel and it will be good for him to drop it to the latter. This will also help Bryan to get back into the main event scene.

#1 Having 5-star classics

The 5-star producers of NXT

A majority of the WWE fans only watch Raw or SmackDown, but those who watch NXT knows how a 5-star match changes the whole scenario in the company.

This year alone the NXT produced many 5 star classic matches, and this is why the fans love to see the show. If the WWE did the same with the WWE Championship then without a doubt, it would again become the top gold.

In 2011, when CM Punk faced John Cena for the WWE Title in Money In The Bank's main event, the match received a 5-star rating from Dave Meltzer.

But now, even after many years, the WWE hasn't provided another 5-star match with the WWE Championship. It seems like the WWE don't want to take the risk with their champions, and the 5-star match is still far away from reality.
