Wouldn't that be the second time ever, since they were all there for the 2nd draft?

Christian should win the Rumble...transfer to Smackdown...lose the Wrestlemania title right to either John Cena or The Undertaker. Then he can feud with Eddie Guerrero leading to a match at Mania.

Maybe the WWE could do an entire week of a unified brand. To sort of test the water of a reunified roster. Don't go with it, just see how it works. Pack Heat, Velocity, RAW and SmackDown! full of talent, and have the matches really seem PPV-quality. |

![]() Anyways... both of them on the same show... I'm guessing that it can't be for a draft or anything since they wouldn't want to shift around the rosters so class to Mania.... I'm guessing that since it has been established with Bentoit that the Rumble winner can decide which title to go after, they will make the decision on Raw.... ...... .............. And for some reason the whole roster of Smackdown has to be there to see the decision and not only the WWE Champion. ![]() |

"Oh yeah, I see how you Americans of non-middle eastern descent are!" he says, "A guy can't come down to the ring with a furious look on his face with road flares strapped to his chest! How typical of you to assume that I'm gonna blow something up! You disgust me!" He enters the ring, and in unison all of the wrestlers in the ring dive for cover....over the top rope. Lillian Garcia enters the ring and announces. "And the winner of this royal rumble is: Muhammad Hussan!........But since he didn't follow company policy in signing the propler goldenrod copy of his entrance form, he is NOT a legal competitor in the Royal RUmble. Therefore, the real winner must await further judgement by the ring officials." "That's horseshit!" Hassan screams, "What the hell is goldenrod anyway? Is it some kind of yellow? How the hell am I supposed to figure out the difference between goldenrod and canary?" So the furious Hassan pops the tops on the roadflares and sits in the middle of the ring, burning his nipples off in an irredescent red phosporous glow while the rest of the advertised 3 hours of PPV are spent watching Naked Mideon play with a hula hoop. |

There going to test out the rating the show gets. And it's going to get a huge rating. And then they can do what I've been waiting for. And that's to end this stupid brand split.

I dunno. I read this at Wrestlezone
For the first time ever, WWE will be taping Raw and Smackdown on 1/31/05 in San Jose, California at The HP Pavilion. The WWE.com blurb for the show reads, "For the First Time Ever: 2 Shows-1 Night; ALL of the WWE Superstars Under One Roof! Come see all the fallout from the Royal Rumble!" as it's the day after the PPV. It will be interesting to see how that comes off. They will be taping Raw live at 6 PM (9 PM Eastern) and then begin taping Smackdown after Raw goes off the air and they change the setup. So it looks like they're just there to tape SD afterwards, they won't actually be on RAW. But they could be I guess. |

^ What he said. At least that's my understanding too... it's a bit of cheap advertising from where I see it. I don't think it'll actually be a dual show, though we'll see...

It can be like one of those two part shows! Raw will end in a cliffhanger involving Smackdown wrestlers, making you want to tune in to Smackdown to see the exciting conclusion!

Oooh! Oooooh!!! I just thought of a really good idea!
Last week Christian was complaining how he got no respect. You build that up some more. Then on this show you have him finally burst in to Bischoff's office and tell him he is through with RAW. Teddy Long shows up and is all like "Bwahahaha. You suck Bischoff!" and signs Christian. |

Christian wouldn't look weak because everyone that wins the Rumble gets some heat. You can even have the face-turn stuff with both commentators believeing Christian should get the shot. Why not even use it to get Tyson Tomko away from Christian by having the Problem Solver move over to the role of Vince McMahon's bodyguard (while working in OVW as well), or having Christian defect to SmackDown!, thus leaving Tyson Tomko open to team with Kevin Fertig or someone. Christian could leave for SmackDown! with Richards (who competes in the Cruiserweight division), pissed off because Vince McMahon didn't care he did something so few people have done, and Eric Bischoff did nothing to help Christian. You could even have Theodore R. Long stand up for Christian, which makes the jump to SmackDown! make more sense. A lot of people like the prospect of moving Christian over to SmackDown!, and he could make a great heel for Cena to feud with over the US Title (use these two to try and make the US Title a consolation prize for the man one behind the WWE Champion in terms of rank). Cena vs. Christian at WrestleMania 21 could potentially steal the show. BTW, Christian would make an even better face than a heel, IMO. He's almost Regal-esque when he plays the asshole everyone hates that does something good. This is just my opinion, but two situations with Christian stand out in my mind. When he saved Lita from a beatdown on RAW about a year ago (clearing the ring in proper face fashion), and when Christian played DDP's "apprentice" if you will, just before WrestleMania X8. Christian's promo on Billy Gunn was so Christian-esque, yet still felt genuinely heart-warming. I'm not saying Christian should turn face, but we haven't really seen Christian as a face at max potential. If the fans got behind him, and Christian remained true to his character (unlike Randy Orton), and gathered credibility, we could be looking at our next Rock in terms of overness, drawing power and stature on the roster. No, I'm not calling him the next Rock, just comparing the role he could play in the WWE. I've probably retracted into too much fantasy inside my head, but I really think Christian could pull it off, and believeably turn heel again down the road as the company's lead heel. Something they really could've and should've done with The Rock, but unfortunately he's unavailable to really kindle the next generation of superstars as well as he could. I hope they don't end the brand-split just yet. If they are going to do anything, I hope they shuffle the rosters around. Maybe just something like a ten to RAW, ten to SD! thing? |
