DISCUSSION - Should the WWE (temporarily) re-unite the rosters before WRESTLEMANIA?

[BasicThuganomics]

Ok, Roster switches can be explained like this....
Benoit gets to switch because of his Rumble win, no trade nessecary. And Goldberg and Taker could trade with each other.

or

Bischoff and Heyman make a deal that Benoit is allowed to switch if Heyman gets Goldberg, because both GM's are tired of dealing with them on their show. Taker could switch because maybe since Vince thought he was "dead" or whatever. He got rid of his contract, and then Taker comes back and has a new contract on RAW or something like that.

To be honest, its not like the WWE feels they have to make up a good reason why they've done some roster switching do they?

And also, this isn't very much roster switing going around, Benoit and Goldberg will obviously switch, and either Taker or Kane will switch so they can face each other at WMXX. It's only three people....


And also, I just thought that maybe WWE won't make UT or Kane actually trade? I wouldn't be surprised to see them face off as an advertised Interpromotion match? And they show up on each other's shows in the weeks leading up to their match at Mania.

Who knows? But I wouldn't be surprised if the WWE makes up a scenerio that doesn't make sense for rosters being switched around.


But still.... roster's aren't reuniting anytime soon.

One reason why I LOATHE the idea of Benoit getting traded for Goldberg, is because Goldberg will be gone after WM (most likely).

Ultimately - this will mean Benoit will have gone to Raw for absolutely nothing.

Smackdown is already lacking in star power. I realize that Edge will be back shortly, but..........

I dont really think 'star power' is an issue.

A: Nobody draws, not Hunter, not Lesnar, not Austin, not anyone.

B: Benoit isn't really a huge star in terms of drawing, and in all likelyhood he wont ever become one.

On top of that SD still has Taker, Edge, Cena (strongest candidate in the company to become a breakthrough star) and Eddie (who is very over in the Hispanic markets).

On RAW, they will lose Goldberg, and then there's HHH, Orton (in the near future), Jerihco and HBK. I think its pretty even at this point.

RAW does seem to have more star power because of Austin, Rock and Foley all appearing on RAW, but all those guys are not going to draw money for the company, so its kinda irrelevant.
