It would be a good idea for the WWE to focus on strong workrate in the CW division, but they'd rather turn it into comedy. The only thing SD has over RAW is the Cruiserweights, so it would be smart to put a heavy emphasis on those guys. But I doubt it will happen.
Of course that likely wont drive up ratings, it'll just make the shows better. We all know the problem, not enough recognizable stars on SD, until that changes the numbers will stay low.
Its like Velocity and Heat (not that bad, but in comparison to RAW's star power), people see those shows as "B" shows, and therefore they dont watch. Once that happens people feel they can skip the show. Thats where SD is right now, the WWE made it clear that RAW is where most of the top guys are so fans stopped watching SD. I think they're at a point where they need a guy like Sting or something to come in, and put him on SD to make people care about the show.
