www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2016-07-04Because I know that there's nothing in the world that a board like ours, whose members are of various nationalities, love more than a match based on US-centric themes. May as well get one of those NASCAR drivers to come back and be special referee or something. In all seriousness, uber-patriotism aside, this could be loads of fun (MAGGLE). Having a match where so many faces and heels would have to work together makes for a different story from usual, assuming they don't just make all the international team heels and all the US team babyfaces.

Cesaro should be the referee.

I just want them to make a full blown Ryder Cup like tournament, although I think that's more suited towards the brand split now.

So, let's see. Owens, Sheamus, Del Rio, Rusev pretty much are guaranteed to be on the foreign team, right? Then are they going with Jericho? Zayn? Breeze? Will they have Miz betray his country and wrestle for team international?
I guess it doesn't really matter. We all know team "America, F*** Yeah!" is going to win in a sweep.

Miz and Ambrose are having a rematch from SD so that's out. Owens, Sheamus, Del Rio, Jericho, Breeze and whatever other international stars (Shining Stars? Does Puerto Rico count as foreign?) they can find. Part of me wants Big E and Xavier happy to be on the US team with a sad Kofi feeling left out.

They have the talent for it. If they treat it like the Olympics with faces and heels on both sides, it could be quite awesome. If they treat it like some ultra-nationalistic trash that Vince usually churns out, it could be very stupid.

Miz, Ambrose, Rusev and O'Neil are currently booked for other matches on the show, so we'll put a line through those guys for now. Everyone else that's active on the main roster is on the table.

Might as well really, being on the Fourth of July Raw's basically going to be non-canon this year so might as well have a big, long clusterf*** to eat up time and have some fun with.
People I can see who could be free for the World team are...
Alberto Cesaro Jericho Kalisto Kofi Neville (assuming it's true he's due back any time now) Sheamus Sin Cara given where they bill him from
And... That's it. So it's probably those eight unless I'm missing someone or they use someone from NXT.

If they put them on the foreign team, that will just be an "Are you f***ing kidding me" decision.

Big Show Mark Henry Kane Titus O Neil Usos Ryder Swagger
That's probably it for Team USA. They will win because of the big dudes.

You think JBL is bad on a normal Raw, you wait until you hear him commentate a USA vs The World match on the fourth of July. Any notion of the WWE appealing to a global audience will be dumped for a stream of red, white and blue vomit.
Oh god, this is how they'll try to bring Hulk Hogan back, isn't it? No crowd will boo him if he's wrapped in the American flag on the fourth of July.
