I love the idea of Carmella as the 24/7 Champion for sure. It allows a lot of the female roster to be involved in the title picture, and can give them screen time for weeks on end, I think. I'm just a little concerned that this will affect what I thought was a different direction for Carmella, only last week.
We saw the hint of an alliance between Carmella and Charlotte Flair on SmackDown Live, and that would have been a bigger deal than becoming 24/7 Champion. Like it or not, WWE's comedy segments often relegate you to a certain spot. Only a few like The Rock can rise above this condemned spot, I fear.

That said, it's a natural progression of the storyline to have Carmella become Champion. I just wonder why R-Truth isn't trying to win it back again.
Remember Alexa Bliss trying to pin R-Truth at WWE Clash of Champions 2019?
