From various newz sites:
Please keep Edge, Hardy, Jericho, Punk, Rey and Morrison where they are. Thanks.

It'll probably be low-to-mid carders. Nothing to drastic.

Ha, Vince wants some of the over guys from Smackdown because he's sick of hearing about how s***ty his "flagship" show is.

Evan Bourne to SmackDown. He doesn't have a whole lot left on ECW, and...well damnit, I just want SmackDown to get even more awesome.

If it's true, it's likely for bigger stars, you don't need to contrive another draft for lower carders, you can just say that the GM's traded or their contracts expired or, well, not explain it and no one will really care.

Again, leave SD's core alone.
This is petty of me, I know, but watching Vince invade SD last week I couldn't help but think this. With his ego being what it is, I wouldn't be shocked at all for him to hear all the time how SD is better than his baby, Raw, so he just has to do everything he can to get attention off SD and back on Raw. Like "how DARE YOU upstage my flagship brand". The show was perfect ... so "grrrr, angry Vince are angry" has to show up and bring his boring ass Raw character over to the blue show. He appears all over it ... for no real logical reason. Hassles Teddy Long ... for no real logical reason. Then there's the possibility they could gut some of SD's best talent with this draft.
Again, I know this is probably not even close, but I can't say it didn't cross my mind more than once.

The problem with the company right now is that Raw is shit, and Smackdown is awesome. It makes absolutely no sense from their perspective to have the show that less people have access to which is on a worse night have such a far superior roster to the flagship show. |

He appears all over it ... for no real logical reason. Hassles Teddy Long ... for no real logical reason. Of course there was a logical reason! He was really stressed out over the Trump thing. ... So he went to Smackdown for the first time in years to deal... with the stress. ... And he thought it'd be fun to mess with Theodore Long, because he's like that and.... um... Chris Jericho convinced him Theodore Long sucks. Because unlike the other wrestlers, he watches the TV show/PPV. |

If he wants, he can take Undertaker, Smackdown has been doing awesome without him. Leave everyone else alone. |

Is it sad that I'm sick of hearing how awesome Smackdown is and how much Raw sucks, because the vast majority of my favorite wrestlers (Kofi/Miz/MVP/Matt/HBK/Orton(when he's not HHH's personal bitch)) are on Raw? I know they're rotting away there, but they're still my favorites, and I don't like the idea that they're crap because they're not on the Morrison/Edge/Jericho/Jeff show.

A showing being bad does not mean anyone is discrediting the wrestlers on that show, so I don't really 'get' that. It's obviously the writers that critics of Raw have the problem with, not your faves. |

I guess I just tend to think that it's a reflection on me (and a lack of intelligence) that I won't "abandon" the show even though the bookers won't do anything with the wrestlers I like. |

I hope none of my favorites get moved from SD/ECW. I don't want them rotting away on RAW jobbing to Cena and HHH.
Any midcarders that get moved to RAW are pretty much done, due to the writers. Unless they change their practices I would rather they keep things the way they currently are.

I'd much rather see Christian or Jack Swagger (or even Mark Henry, who I'm appreciating more and more) in the Main Event scene on RAW then what is already there.

Personally, I'd rather see, say... Undertaker and Kane moved to SD, in exchange for MVP and Kofi (have Kofi drop the US title to say... Regal tonight).
That'd make all of this sting a lot less for me.

Realistically, they are putting far too much work into Punk/Jeff to move either of them. So if anyone is moved from SD, it will be Edge or Jericho.
Again, please no (mostly because I have SD house show tickets and that's who I paid to see, dammit).
