Could a New vc Old feud work in today's WWE?

I know it has been done with Millionaire's Club/New Breed before in a crumbling WCW, but what about now in WWE?

The reason for me thinking that it could is the lack of new stars the WWE is producing, this sort of idea would get more breakthrough stars in big matches, and make them look like equals to more established figures. Another reason is that it has already started in ECW and this could get ECW a bit more spotlight as the starting base of the companies main feud.

Yet another plus is the starting point that Mania gives us. Having Undertaker beat Batista followed by Micheals being aided in beating Cena (needs to be kept strong to lead the new batch). You could even have Stone Cold appearing and being a talker for the older wrestlers, as it has already been said he will be present in some form to promote his film.

Ready made feuds like Carlito and Flair already feed into this, and with Undertaker's lightened scheduale and Micheals looking for a break, a good long feud like this, to result in a new breed victory at Survivor Series maybe or two new sucessors (say Kennedy and Edge) taking the belts at Mania. Hopefully a feud like this could usher in a few new stars to take on some of the load of the company.

To start, all we would need was the controversial wins at Mania, and Micheals, Undertaker, Austin, Flair on Raw the next night to explain (ie, they are not on our level, don't have respect, have not earned anything etc...)

I KNOW its a rehash, and I know that people like Taker might not job too often, but for every Austin we have a Flair and every Taker we have a Foley, who will do their best to have people loking like gold, and even with the rest, all it takes is the one job at the right time. I for one would be really inetrested if it played out right (am also aware of the WWE's incompetence), but we are being optimistic here...

Any thoughts? Entertaining? Obviously too idealistic, but not worth trying? Boring old rehash? Give your thoughts...
