4 things that the WWE could change with the brand split
Just a few days ago, WWE announced that it’s SmackDown brand will be going live July 19th 2016 onwards with a seperate roster. In other words, we’re going to see a brand split once again, and about time too. The wealth of talent WWE has and will have sooner or later when wrestlers from the NXT roster make their way into one of the two main rosters will have to be “drafted” evenly.
But how and where they’ll be drafted will have to be worked out.
We’re going to see some aspects of the good old days of the Ruthless Aggression Era too. You have to admit that WWE has been a little boring for a while now. It’s not exciting as it was during the Ruthless Aggression Era and the Attitude Era. Perhaps the brand split will spice things up.
Seperate rosters for each brand would mean more opportunities for wrestlers that deserve them (or those who don’t too, considering who the current “Guy” is), better, more and varied storylines, and more meaningful wrestling on SmackDown, as opposed to just being a secondary show to RAW.
The days of the brand split was very enjoyable and saw better and more meaningful storylines and better matches. Here then are 4 things that WWE should bring back with the brand split.
#1 Seperate titles for each brand.
Remember when each brand had it’s own champion? The WWE Worldheavyweight Championship should be split between the two brands and make way for two main champions for each roster. Having a main guy on each roster will give them equal credibility and both brands will be enjoyable to watch as we will see title defenses on both.
This is actually likely to happen as the champion having to make appearences on both shows and wrestling twice within 24 hours is not an easy task.
Even the tag team titles should be split, which again will make both brands interesting. The Intercontinental and United States Championship titles should be divided between the two brands too.
