Smackdown just took the future top heel, so I don't see a problem at all now.

They need to sell tickets now. Orton isn't going to do that. He needs months of rebuilding before thats going to happen.
Its a fair point to say we should wait, but I'm just looking at it right now, and right now SD is being raped star power wise. Cena and Angle are much bigger stars than Orotn and Benoit.
The biggest problem I have is that I thought the draft was going to be done to even up the sides between RAW and SD, but 2 picks in and SD has been hurt, so they'll need the next 3 picks just to get back to where they were before the draft. And thats not really good enough.
Dont get me wrong, it could still work out in the end (say RAW gets 3 worhtless guys from SD and SD gets 3 more upper end mid car or main event guys). But I doubt that'll happen, seems like they are doing main eventer for main eventer. And thus far SD has got the crappy end of the stick.
I mean Taker is part time guy, so who is their top face right now? Booker? Show? Rey? Benoit? (thats scary) None of those guys are draws. The only other guy that could draw money that they have is Batista, but as Ive mentioned, he's below Cena in terms of popularity, so its still an overall loss for SD.
Ther wildcard is the ECW angle, if it happens and if it works.
