1 - The end of scripted, emotionless promos on Raw. People need to be themselves.
2 - Continue with the current idea of simple storylines in the top line scene - Cena Vs. Michaels isn't rocket science, but Goddamn its great.
3 - A re-emphasis on the Intercontinental Championship.
4 - Way less comedy in important segments. Comedy is fine, but keep it in its place. If the top program is a joke then there's no reason to get into it.
5 - Make an effort to build Johnny Nitro as a future World Title Contender.
6 - Less Vince. In small doses he is tremendous. As the focus of the show it's dated.
7 - It's ok to think outside the box from time to time, but it should have a point. Example - Rated RKO's beatdown of DX, where the end of the show was dead silence and images on them bloodied and battered. Great segment. George Bush sketch. Not so much.
8 - They need a top line heel. Watching Backlash with a group of casual fans led to a ton of comments in the main event that went along the lines of nobody seeing Edge and Orton as top guys. The constant burials and meaningless defeats on Raw will do that. They need a great antagonist.
9 - For the love of God, stop trying to replace Jim Ross.
10 - Stop wasting awesome video packages that build up the match tremendously by putting them right before the match on PPV instead of TV where they can actually get people pumped. The Cena/Michaels pre-match video package with the slow music at WrestleMania was fantastic, and if they put it on TV, that could have been the final determining factor for some. Use your heads when building PPVs.
