WWE’s brand split – What happens to the US Title?
There have been rumours running rampant lately that Shane McMahon will assume control of Raw, and then Stephanie will take over SmackDown, and we’ll have the WWE brand split again.
These were further fueled by WWE’s latest promotional material (an example pictured above) being divided into Raw and SmackDown superstars, and it’s a great possibility that we’ll see this post-WrestleMania.

So what happens to the championships?
I think it’s fairly safe to say that the WWE World Heavyweight Championship stays on Raw, but the others are unknown. The Intercontinental Championship could become the primary title for SmackDown, and the United States Championship could be a secondary title between both shows, or both current secondary championships could be of equal importance on SmackDown.
WWE could split the WWE World Heavyweight Championship again as well, and have the new title be the primary on SmackDown, and have one secondary on each show, with perhaps the Divas’ and Tag Team Championships being flexible. The possibilities are endless, but the bottom line is, any way you look at it, the United States Championship becomes at least a little bit more important, and that’s good news any day of the week.
