That does make sense SN_13, but the reason for the rules I set for the heavyweight title was to have the best teams in the country competing for it as much as possible. In fact I even considered stripping Razzle Dazzles of the title when they relegated, and awarding the vacant title to that seasons ABBL champion, CoolCats (and that is the basis of the ABBL heavyweight championship I proposed), but didn't because they were technically never 'beaten' for the title.
Actually on second thought, maybe I should just do that and erase the II.1 title reigns from the record books (at least until I bother to track down the linear champion). Seeing as though I went to great lengths to keep the championship in the ABBL in the first place, why not go all the way? Don't worry yoda and sid, CoolCats goes 22-0 in Season 11 so he should be the champion by then regardless and it won't affect your reigns.
If I was to track down the lineage of a title that counts the battlers tournament, it would be called the 'Interdivisional Championship'. The initial champion would be the winner of the first ever battlers tournament and all competitive games would count, making for a lot of title changes... which is why it might not ever happen, because tracking down every title change for the Heavyweight title was hard and tedious enough without having to worry about the tournament as well...
