I'm kind of wanting Eric Bischoff back on a TV screen. Not with any sort of backstage power, mind you, but I feel that his on-screen presence would just help things for some reason.
I'd like to see him appointed by the USA Network as the man to take over SmackDown and ready it for the big transition in 2016. He takes a whole bunch of guys and makes them "SmackDown exclusive." Guys like Dolph Ziggler, Cesaro, Charlotte (maybe even dropping the Divas Title in the garbage and declaring herself the new Women's Champion), Emma, Big Show and even Fandango, denouncing the gimmick.
Part of me wouldn't mind seeing a WCW brand returning, but it feels labored and kind of hokey at this point; but something to shake things up like Eric Bischoff getting SmackDown would be kind of interesting and could lead to some exciting format changes for the show.
