technically, there is no such thing as Traditional Title Holders, since the World Heavyweight Title and the World Tag Team Titles are recognized by WWE as their titles now, since all past legacy was stopped.

Well to each our own, but I prefer the traditional ones, I don't like counting the World Heavyweight Title or the WWE Tag Team Titles, but hey, that's me LOL

Nah, sometimes, I'll do Triple Crown for those who just held the World, WWE Tag Team (2002-present) and WWE U.S. Heavyweight Championship

and the only one that has done that is Chris Benoit

But all in all, it's all good

But let me ask ya this:

So what do ya think about the list of men that need the I-C and the WWE Heavyweight Championship?

well, it would be your own personal arrangement, so it wouldn't be legit nor real. It's like if I considered a triple crown to be IC + Tag Title + Miss Wrestlemania Title. Oh hey!, Santino is the only triple crown Ever. This kinda seems more as a topic for rants/columns/blogs since it's your own opinion and not a technicality of WWE.

to this point, i'm only wondering why WWE doesn't acknowledge the US title as the intermediate title for the triple crown champs.

as for the list of people needing titles, it's meh at this point, the people who need the IC won't go back to the IC division and the people who need the WWE Title are not likely to get it anytime soon. But at this point, any wrestler could really achieve this.

I don't know why the WWE don't acknowledge the U.S. Heavyweight Title, but I guess since it was associated with the NWA and WCW going back to 1975

But hey, I respect that and I respect your opinions, too

which is why it's weird since they acknowledge the World Heavyweight Championship which is exactly the same, going back to the NWA and WCW

Well if you go to wwe.com Title History, they separated the World Heavyweight Championship and the WCW World Heavyweight Championship

I don't understand that myself, but it does remain a mystery

Well the Cruiserweight Title and the U.S. Heavyweight Title were WCW Titles and I guess that the World Heavyweight Championship and the WWE Tag Team Championship have no comparison to the WCW World Heavyweight Title and the WCW World Tag Team Titles, but yes, the Big Gold Title does remind me of the NWA/WCW World Heavyweight Title which is the same title held by Ric Flair and STING

They may not on the website, but on the History of the World Heavyweight Title DVD they acknowledge the NWA, WCW, and current World title as having the very same lineage....
