Propose ditching the title distinction.

[edit]

I'm proposing that this template be reorganized to remove the distinction of winners by world titles, because it is not a valid distinction. Or at least hasn't been since WWE eliminated the separate MITB matches for the separate brands. Since that time the annual winner can challenge for either world title, with no limitation on challenging for their current brand's world title. Plus the poor current organization makes it look like a given year's match had only competitions from that brand, which is plainly incorrect. It should just be a straight chronological list of men's winners and another of women's winners. For the four years (out of 19 now) where there were two winners, list them both with the brand noted. So it would say, for example: Alberto Del Rio (2011, Raw) • Daniel Bryan (2011, SmackDown). Especially since the titles have switched brands during both brand splits, so telling the title doesn't illustrate anything. Frankly, to be extra blunt, the current organization is shit.

(Frankly, I think we make too much of the brands, as it's a purely in-universe distinction and in reality it's all WWE, with zero distinction in wrestlers' contracts and them assigned or moved to whichever brand creative deems them needed in at a given moment. But I digress.) oknazevad (talk) 22:28, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
