I agree with Dave Youell to be honest. I wouldn't mind seeing them just bust out a War Games-like concept in the future, though.
I have this idea of a match that just spans an entire show (for that reason, and that reason alone, I doubt it will ever happen). Every man on the roster is involved, and there are three sides: RAW, SmackDown! and ECW. Have the match take place in Hell in a Cell, or something? Maybe have "waves" of wrestlers. You don't need to exactly level the sides out, just make it like a "war". Numbers don't really matter, the side with the best strategy and weaponry could win.
When you are eliminated, you go to the back. Maybe have a quarter-time, which can allow for piss breaks. Maybe have backstage interviews and angle development in these segments? I guess you could make it a series of waves (so guys don't have to work for like three hours), and have survivors go on to the second wave to represent their brand. Maybe have each commentary team handle a different wave?
I think it would be a pretty awesome concept if the WWE pulled it off. Or even if they just took a PPV, made it a competition between the brands, and just had a series of matches pitting RAW, SmackDown! and ECW's rosters against each other, where each competitor would compete at least once. Maybe have a Battle Royal, a Ladder Match, a Six-Man Tag, and Eight-Man Tag, a battle between Champions and finally a War Games-like match.
