#4 Part-timers shouldn’t be Champions
Trending
On the surface, Brock Lesnar being WWE champion seems like it would be great. He’s a monster who makes every championship match feel like a marquee event. But the simple fact that he’s not on TV enough negates all the good he could do as champion.
WWE needs to have their top champion be someone who shows up week in and week out. If Kevin Owens loses the Universal title at Fastlane, we won’t have that for at least a few months.
If Goldberg takes the title in three weeks, it doesn’t matter if he or Lesnar wins at WrestleMania. Either way, one of WWE’s top champions will be someone who only has limited dates on their contract. That’s not best for business.
Raw’s top champion should be someone like Owens who is capable of wrestling for the company every night. Even though Owens is consistently booked like a coward, he’s still more of a fighting champion than either Goldberg or Lesnar would be.
Look at any Raw main event in the past couple months and odds are you’ll see Owens somewhere in the picture.
Part-time champions are not what WWE needs to spice up their product, especially on Raw which has noticeably been trailing behind SmackDown in terms of quality.
