Yeah, this was pretty much a given as soon as the deal was announced.

And I bet if Cena were to still be around at that time, the company that paid a billion dollars for Smackdown, will want Cena on the show as well.

Anyways, I hope this leads to a real life draft every year between Fox and USA execs. FOX: "OK, FOX will have Ronda Rousey. Your turn." USA: "All right, we'll take Brock Lesnar." FOX: "Next we'll have... um... who can we pick..." Vince: "Roman Reigns. He's sick right now, but he's really good, trust me." FOX: "Fine, I don't know much about him but we'll have him." USA: *deep breath* "Okay... You're kind of leaving us with all the no-names here, McMahon..." Vince: "Don't look at me, I just sign the paychecks." *everyone else facepalms*

I mean, both her rivals are there. This is the natural fit anyways.

Problem is, the move to FOX is way after the normal timeframe for the drafts, so either Rousey goes to SmackDown while its still on USA (which really is just a lateral move) or they delay all that stuff until then.

By the time Fox gets everything they want, Raw will be left with Baron Corbin opening and closing shows...oh wait.

I want both shows to be good, but it's going to be a real mindf*** if Raw ends up becoming the FAN favorite show of the two after the FOX deal starts.

This was always going to be the issue having to please two different masters.
WWE is gonna piss off someone and for as much money as both are poneying up they both are gonna make demands even though USA is pretty quiet right now....untill they learn that they are left with 3hrs of No Way Jose.

omg I as a wrestling fan would love this. The one night out of the year (Draft Lottery/trades/etc.) where FOX and USA have more power than Vince for their future storylines omg

A couple of years from now, I bet you can replace “Ronda Rousey” with “back the billion dollars it paid” in the thread title.

Meanwhile USA execs asked if WWE could add new episodes of Silk Stalkings to the network.

Maybe WWE should stop making Smackdown look awful for no good reason then? I have no idea what that Survivor Series sweep was about, but it made about as much sense as Shane winning that tourney.
