As we all know quite well, the whole roster split thing is pretty much non-existent anymore. You see the same wrestlers on both shows, and there are no longer brand-exclusive pay-per-views, which kind of lessens the big feel of those few events where both brands had matches.
Now, with things changing up in there being word that Smackdown is *possibly* going live & moving to Tuesday night, and the fact that we have all these great new NXT talents either already debuting, or just waiting to get called up, plus the fact that they seem to have trouble giving everyone enough proper time on television to develop feuds as it is, maybe we could look into bringing this split back?
If the split stays extinct, they run the risk of having essentially two of the same shows running back-to-back, which could get rather boring & could hurt Smackdown's viewership. However, with the split coming back into effect, it would make sure that both shows have points that make you want to watch, and that there is no risk of possibly seeing the exact same show two nights in a row, as there will be different wrestlers exclusive to each show.
Seeing how pay-per-views won't actually be a thing once everyone around the planet gets the Network, they run a much lesser risk at giving the brand-exclusive events a shot as well, while still keeping a few mixed events around to give them a bigger feel. The split will also give the wrestlers more time to develop feuds, as there will be about half the current roster on each show.
With the titles, I say finally merge the WWEWHT into one belt, and have it & the Intercontinental Championship be the big belts on each show. The U.S/Tag Team Championships could be used as titles that can change sides, having them be defended as normal, but have a rule that every mixed pay-per-view/special event has those titles defended against someone from the other side or something. Then we can also have the draft back, which was always good fun.
That's my take on everything, at least. What do my fellow wrestling fans feel about this? Anything to add? Anything to change? Anything to slightly modify? Or do you just all-out dislike the idea?
