No joke, they'll probably bring back Goldberg, and in his first spot, have him take out Retribution

Real talk isn't Goldberg one of the only people they have who's a legitimate draw at this point?

Goldberg is infinitely cooler than retribution and also everyone else on the WWE roster, so that would be a great idea

I don't think for a second the brand split is part of their issue when they've got rosters of upwards of 50 people on every brand with the same ~12 appearing constantly and everyone else is just used as jobbers or extras.

When Smackdown initially moved to Tuesday’s and they legitimately tried to use everyone on their roster it kind of worked. They even found something amusing for Eva Marie to do for a short while and tried to utilized every woman in the roster in a storyline.

But the problem was still that the roster was limited and the fresh feuds eventually became stale when they wouldn’t move on.

That was the absolute last time WWE felt like "hmm they could use a few more guys". Then a few months later came the indypocalypse where they signed everybody on earth that isnt on AEW right now.













But seriously tho, how is that Otis vs Tucker feud going?

Dashing to the show
So we can entertain
O'er the ropes we'll go
Hope I land on Kane!
Funk is on a roll
When you step into that ring
Yes! No! Yes! No! Okay, yes!
I'm not gonna sing!

Oh, ring the bell! Ring the bell!
Season's here no doubt!
We won't stop until we win
Or I'm gonna knock you out!
We go out to compete
All alone or in a pair
I can't eat enough red meat!
We fly through the air!

I'm the best in this whole world!
I know that is not true
Excuse me! Don't you start a fight!
Can you dig it? You sing too!

Oh, ring the bell! Ring the bell!
We hope that your inspired
If you aren't entertained,
Vince will say, "YOU'RE FIRED!!"

I don't know if they did this on EVERY draft, but it feels like they did:

Everyone fantasy books about what dudes/factions could benefit from a change, they get four minutes in a battle royal for #1 contender for the secondary belt, then they just sit in catering on a different night of the week than last month

I’m really surprised that they have not added somebody to New Day by this point, TBH. That would be the one thing nobody wants, but would be a total WWE thing to shake things up.

You're not wrong but hopefully that problem eventually works itself out when AEW has an extra hour or two of TV each week. Right now with a packed roster it has to be tough getting anybody television time with one show a week.
