Possible Major Spoiler Concerning Future WWE Storyline Story By: Ben Johnson August 31, 2002 As I reported a few days ago, the official website for WWE Unforgiven 2002 is now up. However, in an interesting note, it seems as if WWE accidentally spoiled a future storyline. The address www.wweunforgiven.com/matches/wwetitle/index.html shows a page that appears to be the template used for creating the title match page as it has random text and says "This Guy v. That Guy". However, the true interesting thing about the page is that it depicts Angle and Brock in the same picture, as if they were squaring off in the ring. Although we know Undertaker is currently scheduled to wrestle Brock at Unforgiven and Angle is not expected to be in the match, the fact that they are shown in the same photo tends to make one think that the two will meet in the ring at a future pay-per-view, as rumors have suggested. These pages do not usually spoil the current show, and this may just be a coincidence, not a spoiler. But, considering most believe that an Angle/Brock match is inevitable and that they are now in the same promotional photo, one must think that WWE has added more proof of this rumor being true. We will keep you posted on all developments regarding this match.

RAW & SmackDown To Have Seperate World Titles Story By: Matt Boone August 31, 2002
At this point this is nothing more than a rumor, somewhat of a pretty strong rumor making the rounds lately. However, there is talk of WWE making two world titles, one for RAW and one for SmackDown!
Most draw this conclusion from the way RAW has unified the Intercontinental championship with both the European and Hardcore titles, getting rid of both former championships.
Further evidence, according to some, that RAW and SmackDown! will have seperate champions came when Brock Lesnar was announced being a SmackDown-exclusive superstar, despite the "rules" WWE laid out when they made the brand extension of the Undisputed champion being a superstar for both the RAW and SmackDown! brands.
Having two seperate champions for each brand would definitely give off the impression to the more casual, or uneducated fans of WWE that the RAW and SmackDown! brands are seperate, not just two shows with different rosters as it stands now.
While I personally would vote against such a move, it would make the brand extension more real than it comes off as being at the moment and would lead to a big payoff with both the RAW champion and SmackDown! champion unifying the titles to make one Undisputed champion further down the line. At this point, having a seperate World champion on RAW would only lessen the push given to Brock Lesnar.
