It shouldn't be that hard to improve the little things that's wrong atleast...
Give Paul Heyman creative control plus more TV time. Give him his faction with RVD, The Dudleys, and Lance Storm(wishful thinking) if he did plan to come out of his retirement. With The Dudleys feuding for the tag titles against whoever has them, Lance Storm going after the US Title and eventually winning it, and RVD in a big feud with Mysterio before moving on to someone like Eddie/Cena.
One of the biggest mistakes IMO was jumping the gun with John Cena and turning him face, I think he needs to be turned heel again, but the problem with that would be the lack of faces...so RVD would probably have to stay face. Cena as the heel he was before with more shock value as someone said earlier would be nice in a feud with 'Taker if he's willing to put him over and not bury him like the treament Booker T got.
One of the more simple things to handle is the CW division, sometimes I wonder about the bookers' lack of common sense...it's pretty inexcusable for professionals to be so stupid. Give these guys a good 15 minute match and they'll more than likely always steal the show...WCW used their CW division perfectly and it was well over with the fans.
Keep that dumb bitch Stephanie McMahon off TV and away from writing angles....enough said.
Send Matt Hardy(with or without Lita), Rhyno, and Test back to Smackdown. Hardy could easily be pushed as an upper midcard face or heel...same with Rhyno who could be pushed as a monster type main-event face if there is a lack of faces from the Cena/RVD turns, and Test who's highly underrated IMO could be another upper midcard heel.
Charlie Haas: I have high hopes for him...hopefully he can gain enough charisma to become a successful face, after he breaks away from Rico...I would love to see Haas in a big feud with a healthy Kurt Angle.
Booker T: He's been getting the shaft ever since stepping into the WWF/E. From what I heard he didn't look to win in his match with 'Taker, the least they could have done was really take The Undertaker to the limit then to finally lose. Booker could easily be pushed as the top heel on Smackdown if done right...give him some key victories, no more comedy....make him as bad-assed as possible, and basically use the same formula HHH had when he was chasing the title in '99-'00. A big feud with Eddie down the road would be perfect....possibly a 3 month feud with Booker winning the title in the end.
