7. The Title Situation
One of the biggest criticisms of Lesnar as Champion is that he won’t be there at every SHOW. You can forget seeing the WWE title at upcoming house shows. He’ll barely even be on Raw. It might legitimately be a case of the WWE Champion only being on special event shows, with taped segments and Heyman promos filling in the blanks.
Some FANS think that will hurt the WWE product, but we’d argue otherwise. Remember when Orton was Champion from October 2013 to April of this year? It was hardly the most inspiring title run.
What’s worse then? A boring champion who’s there every week, or an interesting champion who’s there once a moth? In our opinion, WWE will do better business with a part time Lesnar as Champion rather than a full time overdone act like Cena or Orton.
The other thing about WWE nowadays, it’s so much more than just the title. The weekly show and indeed THE HOUSE shows are sold on a basis of seeing the superstars. Already you have many house shows that don’t feature the champion, due to house show business being split across two tours groups.
