I know ECW is going to start touring with RAW soon, but I thought ECW was doing decent for SciFi and that the network was happy with the show.

Perhaps, but I think at this point, the WWE simply does not have the depth to support 3 different brands. ECW's presence only makes RAW and Smackdown look weaker (as opposed to making ECW a "legit" 3rd show).

Personally - I think it would be pretty cool if there was a mid-card "ECW stable" on one of the brands (in light of the show being cancelled).

I think they could merge the RAW and SmackDown! rosters, and use ECW as a buffer between FCW and WWE.

People talk about lack of depth in the rosters, but to be honest, if they did merge all three brands and just have a combined roster for Raw and SmackDown (and drop ECW) they'd have one of the best top-to-bottom rosters of all time, save the lack of a SUPER DUPER Hogan/Austin/Rock type guy.

They could drop all the shit they keep around just to make up the numbers (Henry, Snitsky, Palumbo) and the guys who may be talented but going nowhere (Shannon, Yang, Noble) and probably have two awesome shows (from a talent perspective anyway... they'd still have the same flawed creative, but that's another topic).

I just got home and checking this out right now. Damn, ECW still didn't do much.

Finlay, 'Swog, Crazy, and Mizark are all going over while 5 are going out. Well, 3 are going over. I have no fucking clue why or what Hornswaggle is gonna do over there besides stick with Finlay. I guess Henry is gonna get the belt.

Raw picks up Layla while Maria goes to Smackdown. Good trade off there.

Carlito, Shelton, Harry Smith, Murdoch, Big Daddy V, and Kendrick to Smackdown. The first four mentioned can all get a fresh start. Vis and Kendrick seem to be the oddballs here.

Kofi, Deuce, Chuck Palumbo, Matt Striker, Jamie Noble all go to raw. I can see Palumbo get a good feud going right away. Maybe throw Kofi in the IC title scene in one way or another. Deuce, Striker, and Noble I'll reserve judgement.

All in all, I think Smackdown wins this time around.
