Does anyone see where they are going with this draft?
They have gutted Smackdown, by taking their top two guys and one of their best upper midcarders.
They have sent midcard guys to replace them.
Now, evidently, they are holding a tourney to crown the new Smackdown heavyweight champion... So, the WWE and World titles are staying on RAW? And we get yet another meaningless title with no legacy?
It almost seems as though WWE has resigned itself to not having SD in fall of 2006, which would be the end of the brand extension. Why not just end it now?
Or is the gutting of SD some sort of swerve to re-introduce ECW?
Or will the WWE champ end up back on SD before the tourney? Or will they unify the WWE and World titles?
Doesn't make sense. I think RAW has been great with the shotgun booking, but SD is not remotely desirable to me, with the exception of anything Eddie and Rey are doing and the new cruiserweights.

Never doubt Vince. He has a plan.
I would like to see HHH off Raw for a change though. And Hassan will get a chance to be a top guy on Smackdown (hopefully). Otherwise they have wasted a lot of time and effort on the guy.

If you look at Vince over the years, he has been far luckier then genius. My greatest hope for WWE was the return of their best booker ever, but he died recently.
RAW has been better with the shotgunning and shoot style lately. Reminds me of the Monday night Wars when it wasn't so predictable. If only they had some wrestling people booking instead of Hollywood writers, they could capitalize on these things they stumble on to.
When you're manipulating the audio because the fans are not responding the way you want, you need new bookers. Stop trying to tell the fans what we SHOULD want and start doing what we DO want.
And yes, HHH on SD would make RAW so much more enjoyable. This past RAW dropped several degrees of goodness the second he stepped into the ring.

Speaking of Nachos, Big Vis is gold. I smell a swerve coming this week, but I love it.
The Matt Hardy thing was great, but if they dont intend to bring him back and let him shoot on the angle, then they are crazy. The pop he got was fantastic. Matt could be a major player in WWE

Unfortunately, methinks that they are just using the Hardy teases to get more heel heat for Edge. Matt Hardy coming back would be HUGE, but I don't think if it was my company I would trust them to keep it professional in the ring.
Vince and co. have always had a thing for Big Vis, and I think they will at least be giving him a chance to do something. It kind of reminds me of the horrible Sexual Chocolate gimmick.
