The way I'd like to see it: Raw: Mainstays and some new guys, deserving long-time undercard finally getting a shot. SD: Hybrid of midcard workhorses getting recognition, and new NXT call-ups. NXT: Return to developmental format instead of a super-indie showcase. Maybe the 2 World champs format could work again, but no double Tag/Womens this time. US on Raw, IC on SD. Frequent invasions/jumps between shows, enough to keep matches fresh, and consistent inter-show rivalries instead of practically ignoring the other exists. Doing the exact same thing they used to would suck. So WWE being WWE it's probably going to be exactly that.

Fat Lowtax posted:Please stop saying New Era BodyMassageMachine posted:Two World champs is the dumbest way to go. Especially since they JUST merged the belts in an elaborate storyline a few years back (Orton/Cena, Bryan at Mania XXX, Brock winning the "new" merged belt; they made a point of it being THE DEFINITIVE SOLO WORLD BELT). It's pretty lovely to backpedal real hard on that and go "lolnope, two world champs again." That was exactly what happened with the Undisputed title at the beginning of the first brand split. WWF acquired WCW, WWF/WCW titles merged, then Brock took the one belt to Smackdown and they reintroduced the Big Gold just after the WCW version had been absorbed. In less time than this, actually.

There's been sort of a thing lately where Big E thinks something they do is too silly or he doesn't quite play along with the antics of Kofi and Xavier, so I could reasonably see them putting Big E somewhere else and having New Day continue as a tag team instead of a trio, but it seems like Kofi probably wouldn't stand for it.

Without all the replays and filler bullshit Raw is 2 hours anyway. I wish they'd strike a deal with USA where either the first or last hour is different content but still WWE. Even if it's just Superstars live.

I'd be happy if it was like this: WHC: Raw IC: SD, elevated to main championship US: Raw's open challenge TV title style belt CW: Smackdown's juniors belt Women/Tag: Float between shows Jerusalem posted:Teddy Long sitting by the phone, playing the waiting game. But would he be on the show with the tag division? Or the show where singles midcard guys can't stop interfering in other singles matches?

Extreme0 posted:The Diva's championship. You're not you when you're hungry. The women will have the new Women's title, the one Madusa threw in the trash, the one LayCool split in half, the Divas, the WCW Women's, the NXT Women's, and the Queen of FCW tiara.

Benne posted:Not to mention that like half the women's division is out with injury right now. There's Charlotte, Becky, Nattie, Paige, Dana, Alicia and a giant ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ after that. I guess Summer, but WWE seems more interested in making her a valet than a wrestler. It's because there's never anything going on with anyone who's not feuding over the title, so people assume the rest need belts to fight over instead of having the 12 or so women fight over title shots and get into their own feuds so tag belts won't be necessary.

Solus posted:Whatever the gently caress happens. I hope we get more of Ranallo calling Women's matches.. He makes it that much better I really like Ranallo because he can competently call a match, but if I have one sort of off-putting note, it's that he hits some really reaching nonsensical analogies. He said this last week: "I know that Baron Corbin is a fan of Slipknot, well he'll certainly be looking to put some knots on his opponent's head tonight!" That's just one example, but he slips into a less-dorky Striker mode sometimes and it's really strange when you notice it.

So they're doing a Fantasy Draft now and letting people share it: http://fantasy-draft.wwe.com/?sf30477905=1#/ Here's mine. Note that I put everyone I like on Smackdown for a super awesome roster, and put people I'm either bored with or don't care about on Raw so I could skip it every week: http://fantasy-draft.wwe.com/?sf30477905=1#/shared/287e22b4dd02cd1bac658bcd58286f33
