Top Guys in the company: John Cena, CM Punk, MVP, Jericho, Randy Orton, Kennedy
The brand split ends shortly after HHH retires. Vince realizes he hasn't built up enough talent to maintain 2 shows. And after jobbing the majority of them out to HHH, Taker, Batista and HBK, all of whom have retired; Vince brings us back to one main roster (and a small development ECW brand) with:
Cena as Champion
Main Event Players: Kennedy, Punk, MVP, Orton, Edge, Jericho, John Morrison
Shad from Cryme Tyme as IC Champ after their split
Mid Card: Carlito, Sheldon Benjamin, Cody Rhodes, Big Show, Matt Hardy, Chavo Guerrero etc
Odd Happenings along the way:
After more steroids allegations bombard the WWE, Vince puts the company on a smaller wrestler type ala CM Punk
MVP is a 3 time world champion whom has retired the Undertaker, conversely, Chris Jericho is only a 2 time champion, Jeff Hardy, massively over in 2008 was merely a transitional champion and a casualty of congressional intervention during their drug investigation
Ric Flair returns and reinvents the new four horsemen as his 'legacy'
Steph takes over day to day operations of the company, and tyrant owner figure, controversial feud arises when Kennedy (a face at the time, refuses to work for a woman and goes renegade) Kennedy, in turn become a massive star
