Triple H revealed that the "Raw" brand would be getting a new main championship, a revived World Heavyweight Championship.
The World Heavyweight Championship was a heavyweight championship in professional wrestling that belonged to WWE with complementing WWE Championship. WWE World Heavyweight Championship was introduced under Raw brand in 2002, following the separation of Raw and SmackDown under WWE. Triple H revealed that the “Raw” brand would be getting a new main championship, a revived World Heavyweight Championship represented by a belt that incorporates elements of both the gold belt and big logo designs. This was due to WWE Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns being drafted exclusively to “SmackDown,”.
When a world title is spoken, Seth Rollins is the first name that comes to mind. The former WWE Universal Champion has made outstanding contributions to the industry. Despite his consistent ability and skill to produce outstanding classics, he is without a championship. Seth has a proven track record of victory in competitions. It is believed that he will win the golden belt during his next reign. However, we’ll have to wait and see what happens in the future with the new WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

The championships were not being unified on a long-term basis. When then Universal Champion Roman Reigns had to drop out due to illness, mainly because WrestleMania 38 was supposed to feature a match between Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns. The WWE Championship bout, which Lesnar participated in as a make-good on the first day and won. The combined championship that was the outcome of that match, which Reigns won, became known as the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship and has been worn by both belts ever since. There was never going to be a long-term plan that focused on unification, and Reigns is so well-defended that he won’t lose any time soon. As a result, a new championship was going to be established.
The new World Heavyweight Champion will be crowned in Saudi Arabia at the Night of Champions, according to Triple H. Roman Reigns will retain the title of Undisputed WWE Universal Champion and move it to his own brand after the WWE Draft. The victors of the Raw tournament and the SmackDown tournament will compete at Night of Champions on May 27 for the chance to become the new World Heavyweight Champion.
