5 ways for the WWE to improve Monday Night Raw

#2 A full time champion

Seth Rollins as WWE Champion

In addition to the Raw brand currently being way short of individuals or teams that fans fully want to get behind, there’s also the feeling that there isn’t really much on the line on the red brand. And by that, I mean there’s a gaping hole where the Raw roster’s mountain top should be.

That mountain top? Why, of course, it’s the Universal Championship.

Despite losing the belt to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 34, the Universal Championship is once again around the waist of Brock Lesnar. Thus, we all know that we won’t be seeing the Universal Championship on a weekly basis or even likely a monthly basis.

Realistically, you’d have to imagine that the earliest Lesnar loses the gold would be next year’s Royal Rumble, with WrestleMania 35 seeming a more likely location for the big title change – particularly if those rumours of Seth Rollins challenging Paul Heyman’s Beast prove to be true.

Regardless, one of the main reasons Monday Night Raw currently feels so directionless is because the weekly TV show rarely makes it feel as if anything is at stake for its superstars, which is largely a result of the brand’s biggest prize being out of sight and out of mind.
