Nah, I think FOX is better off with the roster they have since Smackdown is a 2 hour show. Less is more but this a "stronger" less....

Lesnar
Reigns
Strowman
Wyatt
Brian
Miz
Sasha Banks

Are all company top stars.

Raw/USA
Has to fill 3 hours so they would have a larger roster but cats will get lost in the shuffle, as always.

The one thing Raw has over Smackdown is the women's roster being stronger.

Lynch, Flair, Asuka, Natalya, Bliss, etc....
Yeah but Smackdown tours so if anyone gets injured (Sasha currently is) they have holes. Sure Cesaro will most likely be moved to Smackdown.
Regarding the Women's Division: I can see Smackdown bringing up Shana and the four horsewomen as they seem to like the whole MMA/Wrestling crossover, after a short feud in NXT between Shana and Toni Storm . Shana leaves stating she wants to conquer the entire WWE. She moves up to Smackdown, and I would have Sonya turn on Mandy and join the Horsewomen as an enforcer.
Sonya can play on the whole this is who I am angle, not some (Fire and Desire) but a legit mma fighter.
While Mandy is getting beat down out comes Storm and Ripley to help Mandy as they all have a common enemy in The four Horsewomen.
Yeah Shanya most likely is getting called up but her comrades are too green for the horse women vs UFC horse women match they rumoured wanted to do.They've started to keep couples together so Bianca Belair will probably get called up within months since the Street Profits were called up.
 
Hey, anyone know what's up with Alicia Fox status?
Nope. Sitting on the sidelines with the Usos and Naomi. Wouldn't be surprised if it's intentional to keep their "problem children " away until the Fox relationship is well established
 
WWE has announced in a press release that Bruce Prichard (Brother Love) will be replacing Eric Bischoff in the role. Prichard will "oversee the creative development" of Smackdown and report directly to Vince McMahon, Chairman and CEO of WWE. The move comes two episodes into Smackdown's run on Fox.
Wow..........................
 
So did TNA then they brought in Bischoff.....then Hogan.....then, well u know how that went down.
I'm not saying they should do it, I'm saying I can see it happening because it will be seen and them wanting to push for the war.

As much as AEW tries to claim they aren't trying to start a wrestling war with WWE, they take and have taken many shots at WWE, Vince McMahon, Triple HHH, etc...

Bringing in Bischoff, even if it is purely on a surface level, would be seen as them trying to capture that WCW magic from 95ish -98.

Watch Bischoff be the man behind Jericho's Inner Circle.

I like Bischoff as a heel advocate character, I want to see managers and heel play by play guys back in the business. I think Bischoff could work if he follow the Heenan, Cornette, Blassie, Gary Hart, Jimmy Hart, and Humperdink lane and just manage heel stables. However he needs to kept far away from creative and booking as possible.

ehhh -Bischoff is done
if AEW investors/ managment really wanted a war IMO they would be building a writers room recruiting comedians to consult and they would be recruiting Heyman
 
You just pissed me off again. How BOTH Japanese Rumble winners lose at Mania. And Asuka fuckin tapped! :angry:
Honestly, because they can't speak a lick of English.

Unless you have a manager/mouthpiece, you can't have your top champions unable to communicate with the main audience.

I give Andrade credit since he learned English. Asuka and Nakamura still haven't learned to speak it without sounding ridiculous.

I still call BS on that. It's fuckin 2019. Time to move past that shit with social media and so many other ways to promote or use your champs easily. Audience needs to catch up and stop being treated like casuals.

Call it what you want. The Champion is supposed to sell tickets and buys.

Kind of hard for your top men and women to sell tickets/PPV buys if they cannot speak to the audience they are selling to.

I get that I really do but I wish we could experiment more with the overall feel of the company determining ticket sales. Brock is a big name but if the company is doing the same ol bullshit will it really matter in the end. Brock and blondes can't be good overall long term. Short term jolt yes. Or maybe folks have learned to suck it up and deal with it since they are the #1 company. Like the games. People complain but still buy the shit in the end because its all they know.
