I really hope that by August there will be Raws and Dynamites with live crowds.

My guess, WWE will use some random warehouse they have for their shows past what they've already taped. I can't see them just not having shows if they have any possible alternative option. WWE would tape a show from Vince McMahon's house if it all came down to it, they would do anything they could.

WrestleVotes are reporting that sources are informing them that Money In The Bank, scheduled for May 10th in Baltimore, will not be happening as planned. It is marked as TBD in the WWE calendar, with no word on if it will be rescheduled. Guessing that it'll probably be rescheduled for either July or September

Guessing that it'll probably be rescheduled for either July or September It wouldn't hurt them to skip Money in the Bank for this year imo. It's a played out gimmick that's been stagnant for years. Maybe skipping it will make it feel fresh when it does return next year.

Personally, whenever their first show back with crowds is after this, I just want them to load it with as much gimmicks as possible. Do your Money In The Bank ladder matches, do a Hell In A Cell, do some Survivor Series matches, table matches, etc. It’d be f***ing mental and probably the only time you could ever do something like this, but most would just be so damn happy to have wrestling back in front of crowds again they’d probably let it slide for one night.

First crowd back will be hot as get out I'd think. Any silly thing they wanna try would be perfect for this.

The only real silver lining for WWE is that they have a massive back-catalog of shows they can air in Raw, Smackdown, and NXT's timeslots if they can't do mew shows (live or pretaped0 anymore. Not just past PPV's, but special occasion shows, NXT Takeovers, etc. They could even air some of the WWE Network original content.

The scary thing is that viewership patterns of WWE Network indicate that no matter how bad the ratings have been for these empty arena shows, shows completely made up of old content with no new matches will do even worse.

I say, there's a whole bunch of shit that was filmed that never made it to the air. They've got segments that they never used, dark matches that haven't been shown. Get some production guys working from home to splice some together, get commentary on face time. Hell, get wrestlers on face time to commentate on previous matches. Would anybody object to stuff like New Day calling Kofimania? How about Sasha and Bayley calling their Brooklyn match? Or having Triple H and Cole going MST3K on some of the dumb shit the company's done?

Dream Raw card for when this is over:
WWE Title: Drew McIntyre (c) v Kofi Kingston (Drew gives Kofi a rematch since he never got one at Brock)
Edge v John Cena
Rhea Ripley, Becky Lynch & Sasha Banks v Charlotte Flair, Shayna Baszler & Bayley
Number one contender (WWE Title): AJ Styles v Seth Rollins IC Title: Daniel Bryan (c) v Shinsuke Nakamura
Universal Title: Goldberg (c) v Roman Reigns
Number One Contender (Universal Title) Kevin Owens v Samoa Joe
Keith Lee v Braun Strowman
14 man Tag: The Fiend, Dolph Ziggler, Adam Cole, Johnny Gargano Randy Orton & Miz & Morrison v The Undertaker, Aleister Black, Otis, Velveteen Dream, Tomasso Ciampa & The Uso’s
U.K. Title match: Walter (c) v Finn Balor
Asuka v Io Shirai
Of course you can spread some of these out to Smackdown but might as well stack it as high as you can.

I can see them doing a Shakeup/Draft on the first episode back.

Back catalogue, you say? Hm.
I've got it! Show some weeks or months of pre-Invasion RAW and Smackdown as though it were live, then retcon the entire 2000s and 2010s, just make all new shows that follow on from it!
Perfect solution. Well, except the people who are no longer with the company, but computers can fix that now, right?
Can't possibly fail!

I'd go the opposite direction and have the first show back be as back to basics as possible. People are going to pop huge for seeing an arm drag again so why jump off a ladder?

WWE are definitely stupid enough to have Kofi go over, turn Drew heel, and undo all their good work making the guy entertaining, likeable, and over.

The last thing we need is another Kofi title run. I would book Drew to win after a competitive match and both stay face. Drew is attacked after by whoever wins the Number 1 contender Match (probably Seth).
