If the WWE had played it smart, they would have committed to still having two separate brands: WWE Raw and WWE Smackdown. Heyman and Shane managing one brand while Stephanie and Bischoff managing the other. No lottery drafts every 18 months + no people “switching over” at random. The GM and owner’s of each show would be allowed to make trades with one nasturtium, but that’s it. Survivor Series = best 5 from each brand going up against one another in the main-event. The WWE should have committed to bringing in ALL guys from WCW and ECW when they bought out WCW, doing the invasion angle as they done, but with everyone involved, and then create two separate brands in RAW and Smackdown in which both rosters would be filled with stars from WWE and former WCW and ECW wrestlers.
