What I mean is, you have "Main Eventers" on Raw and SmackDown currently "seperate". So in theory you have twice as many "Main Eventers" than you need.
Actually, come to think of it, now is probably the best time to combine the rosters
There's no Batista, Jericho, HBK etc that you need to consider for ME roles. Taker, HHH, Edge and Mysterio are all said to be winding down. Big Show/Kane can be cycled into and out of the ME scene but don't have to have cemented roles.
Post-Mania Main Event Scene
Alberto Del Rio
The Miz
John Cena
Randy Orton
HHH (if he sticks around)
Taker (if he sticks around)
CM Punk
My point is, if you trash the brand split I imagine you'd have storylines running from Raw to SmackDown back to Raw, etc. Like they did 1999 - 2002. That doesn't leave you with enough TV time to allocate to a roster of 40+ (or whatever the roster is currently).
You can't just say "end the roster split" as this sweeping, "fix all problems" statement.
