Some of my thoughts:
- HBK or HHH: MUST MOVE THIS YEAR!! I do agree: Them avoiding any selection since 04 will make even the most hardened mark think that something is up. Not even in a lottery pick would they be THAT damn lucky to not even be able to stir the pot by teasing it by having them be traded back in the trade window that is usually touted after one of these drafts. I've TRIED to get the shit going by suggesting HBK for YEARS, and nothing to show for it. NOW IS THE TIME, WWE!! Get one of these two to another show.
-The rumored moves make sense. However, I think CM Punk should go to SD instead. He's needed there more, and it's more familiar to him than RAW will be. He seems to mesh with the blue brand better. And plus...him vs. Edge for the WHC? Sounds like THAT could be GOOD!
- Noid, I'm sorry, but moving the King to anywhere BESIDES a retirement home is a bad move for me. He's EXTREMLY stale, the way he plays the heel grew old back in 2003 (and it was sickening in 04 when they tried it for a while), and he makes ANY PBP guy besides JR look like shit. Did it with Cole, Coach, and somewhat with Styles (even though Styles was too good for the King to do that much). Imagine, if that "if your name isn't JR, I'm going to take a runny diarrea shit all over your talents" side of King showed up with Adamle. That has disaster written all over it. Especially now when Adamle is getting settled more now and he's getting better (as in, he's more of what I remember from when he was doing AG). Tazz is a better fit for Adamle, anyway, because Tazz is like what Dan "Nitro" Clark was on AG, and Adamle/Nitro was THE best AG team there (too bad they did that on the final season of the original series). Fans are beginning to warm up to Adamle and are becoming more forgiving. Having the King there (plus ANYONE else because you KNOW King may be able to handle shitting over two at once) in THAT mood would just destroy Adamle within one show.
- Regal and Taker: I've seen the suggestions, but I'm not sure where the WWE will go right now with these two. Regal is suspended, so I doubt they'll care of moving him ANYWHERE while he's serving THAT. As for Taker, I'm VERY confused what they are exactly doing with that ONS result and what is the real status of the Taker's career (never saw any story out there about a Taker injury or a wellness violation or a storyline swerve or real retirement, so I don't know yet WHAT the reason was to have Edge retain at ONS). Therefore, I'm withholding my opinions on these two until I know more about what the fick is going on with Taker and if they can still move Regal while suspended.
- Noid, I have a VERY interesting idea that I'm wondering what you're thoughts are on this: Either move the women's title to SmackDown in a swerve via a trade of whoever has the title at that time, or make the title be interpromotional. With the latter, just do that the way they d the Undisputed title holder when the brand extention began (have the title holder be usable on ALL brands while everyone else is on their own brand). Not sure how the WWE handed a person that lost the UHT under that system, though (I stopped watching for some time around that point). It could definitly change the state of the women's division and have the divas in ECW and SD something to do, since only having a title for women wrestlers on RAW makes having divas on other brands VERY pointless.
