I have said before, the different shows should have differetn target audiences. Have RAW as a PG Sports Entertainment type show, which will keep the young audience which buys Rey Mysterio masks and John Cena t-shirts.
Smackdown should be more 'attitude' era, for slightly older fans. These people have a high disposable income due to having jobs/student loans etc but no dependents. This will make them likely to go to shows (notice attendence at shows has fallen in recent years) as well as likely to purchase PPVs and DVDs.
The third show, which would have been ECW, should have been the most adult orentiated. Hardcore wrestling, boobs etc. This could make money through sponorship rather than traditional methods by having adverts for things such as gambling sites and other more adult focused products.
But what do I know? I don't run a successful wrestling empire. I eat too many take-aways instead.
