Yeah, during the Ryder/Primo match they said on commentary that Ryder and Rosa had signed on with Raw, so it's a bit odd they didn't get added to the roster.
Trent Barreta and Caylen Croft wrestled on SmackDown last week, but were said to be strictly free agents. I dunno, I kinda think they'll wind up on SmackDown anyway though I guess either show could benefit from adding a team.
Vance Archer is said to be going to SmackDown by the almighty Ryan Clark but it hasn't happened on screen yet.
Vladimir Kozlov worked a dark match as a heel before Raw, not that dark matches mean much. Honestly I would rather keep him as a face and run with the Kozlov/Santino odd couple that they teased on ECW like a month ago, just because I'm not sure what else to do with him.
That leaves just Goldust and Tyler Reks as far as former ECW wrestlers go. I think they are still testing the waters with Reks as a heel and he teamed with Vance Archer before SmackDown. If they are gonna do anything with him at all, SmackDown would be the place to do it.
Goldust, however, can go pretty much anywhere but I'd guess he lands on Raw. Maybe he'll rekindle his team with Hornswoggle, since DX will likely be split soon and there's obviously no way they are releasing Hornswoggle, gotta give him something to do. I honestly wouldn't mind an Oddities-like stable with Dust, Swog, Santino, and Kozlov. 
I don't think the ECW non-wrestlers are going to do anything outside of Josh Matthews being the backstage interviewer on both shows as well as commentating on NXT and Savannah doing her shitty ring announcing on NXT. Tiffany is working on her wrestling in FCW, Byron Saxton has gone back to managing in FCW, and The Abraham Washington Show was run during the last set of FCW tapings with someone else subbing in for Tony Atlas.
Christ, I wrote way too long a post.
