Instead of the World Cup - have three events, a World League with the top eight nations other than Brazil in it; a World Trophy with 32 teams in it of which six are Brazilian states' state teams and 26 are countries that are not competing in the WL, all via qualification, and the top three from each go to The World Showdown (a knockout tournament where the two winners form one half of the draw).
And instead of the European & continental Cups, have the top 8 in group one; 9-16 in group two; and so on - all evenly matched (& the rankings take all WdCp & Continental Cp qualifings from the last 20 years into account / 5% less weighting for each year that has gone by), these 8-team groups are to be the European Cup & qualifying all-in-one. The top three teams per group then go into a swift knockout tournament where if it is a draw after extra-time, the home team is knocked out.
Both events are to have promotion/relegation & have fewer mismatches & more suspense about the winner. So?
