The Katz Files – Arnie Katz
Revamping the WWE Championship Structure
The Kingfish Arnie Katz examines the forthcoming big changes for WWE championship belts – and offers some suggestions of his own.
It’s pretty obvious that WWE is ready to implement a new strategy for its championship belts. Unification matches and rumors of retiring certain titles abound.
It’s certainly a good time to make the move. Business will be down this spring and summer, so they can fine-tune things before the big-money fall and winter pay per views.
It’s also easier to make the changes now than at any time of the year. WWE has WrestleMania and Backlash for big title contests and the so-called Draft Lottery to reassign the talent among its four shows. (If WWE forgets Superstars, the WGN series will fail.)
