QUESTION - Should RAW & Smackdown have more discernible identities just as NXT does?

Definitely agree about the need to employ several exclusive elements.

One idea that I mentioned in the past, was making one show completely oldschool and the other show completely new school. Although this idea is very risky, I think it would be interesting to see nonetheless:

One of the shows could compose of:

Triple H, HBK, Orton, Cena, Undertaker, Edge, Jericho, Batista, Kane, Big Show, Christian, Matt Hardy, William Regal, Fit Finlay, Shelton Benjamin, Goldust, Rey Mysterio, R-Truth, Mark Henry, etc., etc.

The other show could consist of:

CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, Sheamus, Dolph Ziggler, Rhodes, Dibiase, The Miz, Morrison, Kofi Kingston, Swagger, Ryder, Hawkins, Santino, Evan Bourne, MVP, Cryme Tyme, Mike Knox, Great Khali, etc.

On the surface, it would appear that the show composed of the old schools stars would annihilate the other show, but maybe that wouldn't be the case. Who knows. I probably wouldn't go through with an idea like that due to the risk involved, but it would be interesting to see how it panned out.
