Get Seth

Get Finn

Get Jeff Hardy

Get Allister Black

Release the lower card completely

Change the the area look instead of Blue and Black make everything Dark Blue and light Grey

Less commercials

Less time to the women

Two tag team matches a night

One woman match

Main event with a contender vs another Contender

A rising star title shot every three months let someone from NXT challenge for the US Championship

Women's title should be renamed the Women's World Championship (Raw should be Women's Universal Champion)

SD tag title becomes the World Tag Team Championship (Raw Tag becomes Universal Tag Titles)

Two man commentary bring black Mauro and have Cole as his partner

December should be a duel brand PPV where the champions compete against each other what ever brand wins the most out of the championship challenges get the main event spots at the next Wrestlemania

Bring back the fist

???? Wall of text, never mentions storylines or angles. Just wrasslin nonsense. Would do the same ratings as today. People want drama, the proof is in every other TV show that does ratings. Stop gassing up these loser wrestlers who do flips, nobody cares to watch that shyt. How many flips does the Hound on Game Of Thrones do :gucci: Give people drama, angles, double crosses....give them something besides fake fighting for 2 hours a week.

This would work. :manny:

bring back the miz......you know what? Miz has been fire on the mic for a while, maybe they should give him another run at the main title with AJ chasing :ohhh:

Thats true. As good as AJ is hes a 40 year old redneck with 0 marketability. Owens is a fat guy with a severe farmers tan. Jinder is the only guy that looks like a star .....but even though he has the belt they dont really do shyt with him. Kinda almost seems like they are trying to intentionally fail by not promoting or making angles for anyone.

I think the simple answer would be to hire the Lucha underground staff....they had me gripped on mad angles in the past.... but even now they have gone astray lately with way too much fake fighting and not enuff story. :jbhmm:

Stop breaking up tag teams. There is no Janetty/Michaels between the last few teams they've broken up especially The Hype Bros, just stop.

Push Jinder as a Upper Mid-Card act. His whole foreign heel gimmick would work much better with the US title, have him hold it for a year.

There needs to be an established pecking order in the Women's division. All the multi women matches and a dead end Natalya getting a run this late in the game is just bad.

Give Maria and her purse holder an in ring talk show, have them get heat. Maybe produce some awkward funny moments.


Put the belt on Aj :yeshrug:

The stars that pop are on Raw but with Football and NBA coming back it's being a midget trying to dunk on a eight footer

The whole shield on Raw Roman belongs on Raw SmackDown needs Seth

A few others would be nice like the Miz

I was hoping someone would take the argument up on my Styles rating post so I could hit them with facts, but I'll post it here.

The problem with Styles being champ on SD is the same problem Jinder has now. Where are the main eventers to feud with?! No one bought Styles/Ambrose as a WWE Championship feud which is why the ratings fell. They always have to implement Cena and Randy ASAP because they put the belt on first time champions before they build up a decent main event scene around them. No one is buying Jinder vs. any of these guys, they're going to have to implement Cena back in the title picture just like they did with AJ.

It's a cyclical problem. You need a good 5-6 guys built up on the championship level not just hotshot one guy and then when he fails to bring in ratings with another former midcarder you run to Cena and Randy. Can't keep doing that forever.

Heel turns: Randy Orton, Bobby Roode, Charlotte. They're all better as heels. In Randy's case, he functions as the top heel Smackdown sorely needs considering the Jinder experiment has run out of steam. Bobby's gimmick only works as a heel. And Charlotte? Nothing against Nattie or Carmella, but neither of them has enough heat to carry the women's division as top heels.

Speaking of the women's division, idk why they sidelined Charlotte and Becky, but they need to get them more involved. Get them back into storylines and feuds.

Have AJ drop the US Title to someone (Jinder, Rusev, whomever) and trade that person to Raw for the Miz (w/ the IC belt, obviously) and the Miztourage. The Miz was a cornerstone of Smackdown, and bring the Miztourage gives the brand another heel team.

Speaking of, replinish the tag division. You don't even need to necessarily trade or do callups. You got a bunch of cats just sitting in the back not doing anything. Make some of them tag teams. Sami/Tye, Luke/Erick, Mike K/Aiden. Or some combinations thereof. But the division can't just be Usos/NewDay forever.

Get Finn Balor. He's been in limbo on Raw forever. Get him on SD where he'd have a little more room to breathe and get involved in title scenes.
