    Can see Raw and SD still being the 2 longest running episodic shows on TV for the next 50 years

    When Vince's grankids or even great grankids take over in the future they could change the whole landscape of the WWE and they might end Raw and SD and replace them. Can't see anyone from the current generation or even Shane/Steph/triple h generation changing the weekly programmes

    If IC title moves to Raw what are smackdown mid carders fighting for? are we to believe that crews, corbin and swagger are legit wwe title contenders? It's hard to picture them as IC title contenders at times. Also, moving the title to Raw makes me feel like we are going to see one title seriously devalued, and have champs like darren young, titus and curtis axel

    That's exactly what's gonna happen. Raw be better off bringing back the European title if they are looking for a second mid card title below the US title and hopefully the Cruiserweights move to Smackdown.

    I was chatting to my friend about this, and the european title on raw was the exact same conclusion we came to. Could have a tournament with all the european wrestlers in it and crown the champ at the raw in the uk after mania. Have Neville beat someone like Sheamus for it so it looks like he is getting a bit of a push, but then feud with Curtis, Bo et al

    I still smell Sami Winning and then switching to smackdown somehow.

    Here's hoping! It makes sense for all parties, SD need a stronger mid card and Sami would be would be a great fit for building heel challengers against.

    Or they could do what WCW did wth the TV Title and have somebody find it in a bin and then start defending it 😂😂😂

    Really though instead of bringing back the European Title they should just bring in a fresh title with a new lineage like a TV Title


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,876 ✭✭✭johnnyryan89


    Speaking of the TV title, I'm surprised they haven't brought out a Network title that can only be defended on the Network shows.

    You mean the Internet Championship? :)

    I say bring back Hardcore championship with the 24/7 rule

    Speaking of the Internet Championship, saw a thing on WhatCulture about Zack Ryder and did he actually have that belt on him during live tv and did he refer to it as an offical title on tv like Austin had with his Smoking Skull belt? I know he used to defend it at house shows and had his internet show but did he do it on Raw or Smackdown.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,850 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    As far as I can recall he never had it on tv. It may have been mentioned in commentary but that's about it.

    I really don't see what the point of Mick Foley and Daniel Bryan as general managers when basically it's all about Steph and Shane as commissioners controlling and being to focal points of all story lines.



    Also Mick Foley is looking more and more like a serial killer and cult leader each week.

    He is more a Wyatt than any of the Wyatts.

    Is Foley Sister Abigail:eek::eek:

    While steph does seem more important then mick i wouldnt agree with shane being seen as more important then brayn. it seems like there on the same level and i think their characters work well off each other.

    As Steph pointed out Shane takes a wrestlers spot he also the first to take RAW's monster off his feet and Taker puts him over with his first words on Smackdown in years.

    Yes Bryan and Bryan bounce off each other well but Smackdown is all about Shane I think.

    Are you kidding me?!! Even from the get go, the one thing the most electrifying man in sports entertainment had going for him was his "look".

    I watched SS 96 last night on the Network, certainly an interesting show.

    Rocky's debut where the rocket is on him already with Sunny, JR and Vinnie all putting him over big time. Never mind the win to boot.

    Reliving the horror of fake Diesel and Razor, with Vinnie staying cringingly quiet over his pet project while making JR look like the ****ing idiot putting them over. Yoko also looking like he was about to drop any second.

    Al Snow was a new rocker....lol.

    Even as a kid, Austin and Bret had a strange feel and build up and nothing changed for me last night. Great match of course, but there was just something in the air that suggested the tide was turning.

    Crowd hated HBK and loved Psycho.
