Kevin Owens “True WWE Champion”

Ok so I was wandering if with this new story of Kevin proclaiming himself as the “True WWE Champion” that does it deserve its own section in the history tab for this wiki? Similar to the “Real World Championship” section in the AEW world championships history section S7Nightmare (talk) 07:41, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, because it was an entirely different scenario that ended in less than a month. Punk's "Real World Champion" claim was based on being the lineal champion (who was stripped after the "Brawl Out" incident), he defended his claimed title, and having the title served to give Collision a separate championship during the early days of that show when there was something of a soft brand split because of the backstage politics. Owens, on the other hand, just was being a heel to continue the rivalry. oknazevad (talk) 17:47, 22 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
