:snoop:

The brand split was a failure. At least don't give us two world titles. Let it be how it was when the brand split started out, the top champion can appear on both shows.

I heard a rumor that the planned WM main event is Reigns/Cena :francis:

I don't mind this, cause it keeps them from washing the rest of the guys on the rise. Give me Reigns/Cena keeping each other entertained vs either of them in separate matches with forgone conclusion wins against AJ, Cesaro, KO (yea I know he has a win against Cena), Zayn, etc.

These banners are on wwe.com's shows page. Could this be a clue to the brand split or just me reading into it too much.

No matter what if Vince still is set in his ways and considers Raw the superior show I can't see Cena being on Smackdown but for so long. But with Smackdown on Tuesday's and live I could eventually see them outgaining Raw who has to go against MNF among other shows.

Smackdown will never beat Raw. Ever. Being live and on a different night is not going to change the perception of it being the B show (which it has been since its inception, well before the the brand split SD had fairly show specific roster and stories for mid carders that barely got mentioned on Raw). In fact, I'd bet on SD getting lower ratings once it moves to Tuesday.


Meltz said that Roman will run Raw and Cena will run Smackdown.


Anyone thought otherwise?
I hope they do Cena Raw/Roman Smackdown just so Dave can be like "Well, plans change" and try to worm his way out of it

He made sure to drop that line a few times already
