DISCUSSION - Do John Cena and Dave Batista have sexual chemistry with one another?

Yes, because they're gay! omg! lol! xoxoxox!


Now that THAT is out of my system ( -), I can focus on the purpose of my post.

In short, here is what I think:

-John Cena and Dave Batista are arguably the two hottest commodities in the WWE right now.

-With this in mind, I believe that the WWE should seriously start building around a Cena/Batista rivalry *AFTER* Wrestlemania 21.........in preperation for Wrestlemania 22 (gasp -). I "gasp" at this because its pretty damn strange to 'build' for something that would be practically a year away.

-While I don't believe that the roster split should come to an end, I would like to see a legitimate RAW vs. Smackdown feud (in between Wrestlemania 21 and Wrestlemania 22). Cena would be the "centerpiece" of Smackdown, while Batista would be the "centerpiece" of RAW.

After Wrestlemania 22

a) Cena or Batista will be the Undisputed Champ (that appears on both shows).

b) The RAW/Smackdown "feud" would officially end (i.e. there would be less RAW and Smackdown wrestlers appearing on the 'others' show causing backstage attacks, etc.), but a 'cold war' would still exist between the brands (i.e. there would be noticeable tension between the two brands at joint PPV's).



Basically, I think something like this would achieve the following:

-A year long rivalry between Cena and Batista could REALLY help ratings. I'm not sure how they would do it, but Cena and Batista wouldn't actually fight each other (one on one) until Wrestlemania-22. To some degree, it would be kinda like Austin/Vince. Austin/Vince had a "rivalry" which started from shortly after WM-14, but really had a climax at Wrestlemania-15. I was thinking that Cena/Batista could be the same way.

-RAW vs. Smackdown feud (with the current roster as is) would increase fan interest and ratings. For this ONE year (and one year only), we could see many interpromotional matches and feuds. This would also be a good time to help some of the Smackdown mid-carders get 'over' . Right now, a major problem that Smackdown has, is that the fans aren't being given a reason to cheer for the mid-carders.


Guys like Dupree, London, Kidman, etc. are all talented, but have been marketed extremely poorly.

Perhaps by giving them credible victories over the more "established" RAW mid-carders (i.e. Christian, Jericho, Benoit, Kane, etc.), people may respect the Smackdown mid-card a little more.

-Dupree could beat a guy like Jericho for instance. (while getting a newer and updated gimmick).

The same things can happen with London and Kidman.

Basically - this could be a great way for the fans to finally care about the mid-carders of Smackdown.



After Wrestlemania 22, the roster splits can once again be strictly enforced. The only difference, would be that there would be an Undisputed Champ. Furthermore, there would be far more tension between the RAW and SD brand (which would be noticeable at their joint PPV's).


I think a RAW/Smackdown feud (with Cena and Batista as the "centerpieces" representing each brand) would be a tremendous catalyst for higher ratings.



The only question, is could the WWE actually have a RAW/Smackdown feud where there is no "heel" or "face" brand? Basically - heels and faces would be a part of both brands.


Oh well - food for thought.
