Amidst poor ratings and fan backlash, WWE came up with the concept of the 24/7 Title, which was heavily influenced by the Hardcore championship. The unveiling of the title was an awkward affair, as fans disliked the belt design with all their hearts. Most importantly, fans weren't sure whether WWE would be able to create the same magic with the belt that it did with the legendar y Hardcore title.

A month later, the 24/7 Title has become the most entertaining part of WWE's weekly shows. R-Truth has turned something silly into must-watch TV. He was currently voted the WWE Universe's favorite current champion, winning 27% of the votes! It's crazy how several main event storylines have taken a backseat to this mid-card title.
Although the fans didn't have many hopes when the title debuted, the situation has taken a complete U-turn and the WWE Universe eagerly awaits segments featuring the belt on a weekly basis.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
