The 24/7 stipulation made backstage assaults so much more fun

It also gave mid-card wrestlers a chance at a tilte

And it kept mid-card wresler out of getting the WWE champion.

Should WWE bring back the hardcore champion

No. They shouldn't. The Hardcore Title was a joke. Terri won the title. Seriously. No. That's not right.
WWE doesn't know Hardcore. They know Chair Shots. Thats it.

only thing hardcore-ish that the wwe did was TLC and hell in a cell (when they are willing to go out of the cell)

An occasional Hardcore match is alright. But when they have a Title with consistenly bad matches, then Harcore matches begin to suck.

Rob Van Dam was the Hardcore Title. Without him the Title was a joke. It is the WWE's idea of Hardcore, which is two people hiting each other with cookie sheets and apparently... Bob Holly.

RVD was the final Hardcore Champion, and thats how it should stay, as he was that belt's best champion.

I have nothing agains t bringing the Hardcore Title back, but don't they have other titles to "take care" of: Tag Titles are joke; Intercontinental has lost its value; I'm not even talking about Cruiserwheight Title and, oh, I believe there used to be a Women's Title?!

No!

While I agree the Hardcore Championship was humrous at first and did have it's moments, I think the belt did a lot more harm, than good.

The Hardcore Championship was humrous at first, but when everyone started to win the Championship and guys such as Steven Rihards were 21 Time Hardcore Champion, without the fans even realizing it (including myself), that is when you have reached the over-board point.

Also, the Hardcore Championship was the prime example of the Attitudes era's main weakness, Championships not meaning as much as they use to. The reason why? Mainly because the HC Championship did not mean much if everyone is winning and the belt is always changing hands. What the point of having a Championship, if the belts is going to change hands pretty much non-stop and practially every Jobber, Low and Mid card is going to be the Hardcore Champion (and being the Champion countless times).

Why the HC Championship was the worst case of belts not meaning as much, generally in the Attitude era, no one was champion for too long and wrestlers were becoming multi-time Champion too fast. For Example: Edge is 11 time Tag-Team Champion, at this was in period of 5 years.

Also, having too many belts brings down the worthness of all of other Championship belts and WWE has enough Championship as it is. Besides, lets work on making the current Championships mean more than they currently do, especially the Tag-Team belts of both brands, before we even think about bringing back the gimmicky Hardcore Championship.

:lol: that's reason enough NOT to bring it back.

seriously, who would go for it? viscera would be champ for a year and then maybe the wwe would make punk have it so he's stuck with no push.
