Nic Nemeth Discusses One Way WWE Can Elevate The World Heavyweight Title

According to Nic Nemeth, in a recent episode of "Busted Open Radio," he said the belt is credible, but added that WWE should take further steps to legitimize the title. 

"It isn't the worst possible thing to have, like, 'Hey, Randy Orton holds this up and it counts as one of his world titles,'" Nic Nemeth proposed.

Additionally, Nic Nemeth claimed that some view the title as the "Intercontinental Championship Plus," and that Randy Orton reigning with the belt could add some much-needed credibility. "So, when/if he does pull it off, it is a big deal," he said. 

Despite this, Nic Nemeth clarified that GUNTHER's reign does count, but having Randy Orton hold the belt above his head would add some of the equity of his 20-year-long career to the championship.

"That would be something to like, 'Hey, man, that's no longer a consolation prize to anybody,' even the sharpest critics, they've made it into something because of their long-term booking," Nic Nemeth suggested. 

Randy Orton's current feud with GUNTHER continues to heat up ahead of their match at Bash in Berlin, and this week, "The Viper" got some retribution and hit the champion with an RKO as "RAW" went off the air.
