WWE Website updates WWE Championship Name[edit]

On the WWE website, The WWE Championship is now named The Undisputed WWE Championship and the title history shows that of the WWE Championship. The WWE Universal Championship is no longer shown to be part of that title https://www.wwe.com/superstars — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.97.236.62 (talk) 03:48, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Summary for recent edit.[edit]

WWE now recognizes the title as the Undisputed WWE Championship, as seen here: https://www.wwe.com/titlehistory/wwe-championship Thatoneguylol101 (talk) 05:08, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And that's already vanished. Glad no one impulsively moved the page. I've been to their website three times today, and every time the name under Cody's picture on the roll all of champions has been different. At one point they even had two separate listings for the WWE and Universal titles. The point, simply put, is we don't have a definitive answer yet, and we really need to just wait for things to settle before we do any moves or other major changes. Just wait. There is no deadline. oknazevad (talk) 18:25, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While that has vanished, it's worth noting the "champions" section of the superstars doesn't show the Universal Championship and calls the WWE title the "Undisputed WWE Championship". However, if you click on Cody and go on his profile, it shows that the title was renamed to the "WWE Championship" and he still holds the Universal Championship lineage. To add to that, if you check the WWE Championship, the description still calls it the "Undisputed WWE Championship". I'd wait until confirmation from the company themselves.

The current name for the championship is the Undisputed WWE Championship, (see WWE.com) so it should say (UNDISPUTED WWE UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIP 2022-2024 and the new name should be Undisputed WWE CHAMPIONSHIP 2024-Present Sixburgh786 (talk) 13:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: See conversation above; the situation appears to be fluid right now. — Czello ^(music) 13:58, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
