WWE is considering a new championship belt for the men’s division of Raw or SmackDown.
As exclusively reported by WrestlingNews.co, WWE wants to have a top title for each brand heading into the summer.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported that “there remains a lot of talk of creating a second title for Raw (or SmackDown if they switch brands with [Roman] Reigns or if someone beats Reigns) in 2023.”
Reigns is likely going into WrestleMania 39 as the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. There have been recent reports that WWE is considering the idea of having him work both nights of the two-night event.
It’s no secret that WWE wants to have The Rock back to do a match with Reigns and the speculation is that if WWE can’t get The Rock or they go forward with Reigns working back-to-back nights, then Cody Rhodes would face Reigns at WrestleMania.
