While The WWE Universe has despised the idea of part-time champions for years now, it is sometimes a very effective way of making a title seem more prestigious and even establishing new stars. Beyond that, it also makes when the champion does defend the title a big deal, which can help pay per view buys, and even TV ratings if done right

Unfortunately for The WWE, their fans go into full-blown rage mode whenever a part-timer wins or even challenges for a title and will threaten to boycott the company if the decision isn't changed. What fans fail to realize however is that part-time champions are a big part of the storytelling process and is an effective way to build for the future.

Think about it! WWE tried for months to get fans behind Roman Reigns and was continuously met with failure. In fact, it was only when WWE started bringing Brock Lesnar back, playing up on his part-time role and portraying him as lazy that the fans finally started to accept Reigns as the viable alternative.

In the end, this kind of storytelling works and while it may take a long amount of time to unfold, its worth it when you see the finished the product. Then again, The WWE Universe doesn't seem to have the kind of patience for this kind of storytelling, which may eventually force the company to book more short term.
