I absolutely don’t think you can strip past titles, especially Esso and Seul’s because they both relinquished the belt after an undefeated streak of 7 after being told that would get them the permatitle. Perhaps if Rai and RULE want to have other events to legitimise their titles that’s cool.

I don’t think the current criteria need to include all past Legends/Kings though. Plenty of other titles have had changing criteria over time (i.e. GCs used to only be for exclusive members), the title is just for who met the conditions at the time. Going forward, I think it should be 7 or 10 consecutive defences. Don’t mind which.
Why can't you? 1.) They're just usertitles, having them removed doesn't negate what you did for them. 2.) All kinds of usertitles have been stripped in the past under situations like this. Contest titles, custom usertitles, etc. 3.) What's the point of an interchangeable title if you're forced to give it up after x number of defenses(which was the initial premise of the LBT/LBA King. x number of wins, relinquishing the LBT/LBA title, and getting the "King" title.)

Honestly, do away with LBT/LBA King, and let people hold the LBT/LBA titles for as long as they can. It makes it more enthralling when that person is unseated.
