Guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Kane is out with his biceps injury. Nash is a little ways away from performing in the ring. Hall & Hennig, fired. So, who do you think gets drafted to RAW? They NEED to bulk up that roster a bit. I hear the stories about Benoit and that would rule. I'd also like to see Christian & Lance Storm head over to RAW... ...and for christ's sake, make the tag team titles interchangeable between rosters!!! ;p
Guest Anglesault Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Keep Benoit on SD! Have Kanyon go to Raw
Guest razazteca Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Maybe its time to focus on who's hot on Raw instead of forcing new "talent" on the show. Give more time to Regal, Guerrero, D-Lo, Booker T, maybe some 10 minute matches. or they could get some Luchadores from Tijuana
Guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Keep Benoit on SD! Have Kanyon go to Raw Kanyon & Rhyno are two guys I'd like to see on RAW, for sure. I'd like Benoit to come over because they don't have many pure wrestlers of his calibre on RAW. Plus, I'd love to see him get some payback on Nash for all of that Vanilla Midget BS. ;p
Guest Slapnuts00 Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 I'd like to see Undertaker, William Regal and The Hardy Boys traded for Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Christian, Lance Storm. Jericho has exausted his feuds on Smackdown. Triple H? Kurt Angle? The Rock? on RAW he'll have more attention focused on him too since there's less main eventers. Undertaker is in the same situation, he's exausted his possibilities on RAW (Austin and Kane basically), Storm and Christian would do better on RAW where midcarders are given more time (and they can face the likes of RVD and Eddy). The Hardys should be on Smackdown since thats where the tag division is, Regal just seems like he'll have better opponents on SMKDWN and Benoit can be a top face on RAW. On Smackdown, he has The Rock, Hogan, Triple H ahead of him, where on RAW it'd be just him and Austin. So that's my suggestions.
Guest Anglesault Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Benoit shouldn't be face. A face should be able to talk. A heel can get away with silent but deadly.
Guest Zack Malibu Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 I think Benoit would "finally" get his huge push if he went to RAW. He could come in as a super-face, taking out Flair, X-Pac, Big Show, Undertaker, etc. They could do an angle where either Arn Anderson is fed up with what Flair has done, and brings Benoit back to combat Flair and his new buddies...or have Flair, X-Pac and Big Show kill the NWO angle, and start a semi Horsemen group. Flair could do a storyline where "something's missing", and he brings back Benoit to be the 4th guy, only to have Benoit tell him to go to hell. Benoit gets targetted by the heels immediately, and thrust into a main storyline. I think RAW should get Benoit, Kanyon, Rhyno when he's healed, Mike Sanders, and/or Mike Awesome. I also think they need to pull the trigger sooner than later on the Booker T. face turn. While they may be lacking in name value, they now have the opportunity to create some new upper level faces that people can identify (RVD, Booker, D Lo, Guerrero, Regal). Not to say that people don't know them already, but hopefully these guys get enough of a push that they become familiar to even the most casual fans.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 When are Kanyon and Rhyno coming back? Soon? Without them, I'd have to agree with everyone else... Benoit definitely "belongs" on RAW with his fellow ex-Horsemen, as a silent-but-deadly heel. As for anyone else... I'm gonna have to go with the Canadian midcarders, since they're really not needed or used (with the exception of that pretty good tag match last week). I don't count Jericho as a midcarder anymore, even if he is being treated like one, so that's Venis, Christian, and Storm... basically the people the average Smackdown! fan would'nt miss. Huh, there are still tag belts?
Guest Zack Malibu Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Since we've got heel owners on both shows, the whole "2 brands against each other" idea is gonna suck even more. Anyone else think that either Arn Anderson as a commish, or Shawn Michaels coming back as a babyface president for RAW would be a good idea? As much as he's a jerk most of the time, an ongoing Shawn/Vince rivalry could be pretty damn entertaining.
Guest Austin3164life Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Trade Benoit & Jericho from Smackdown, for Undertaker and X-Pac from Raw. The Undertaker is now feuding with Hogan (who seems to enjoy himself on SD more), so they might as well continue it there. Raw has more room for two new Main Eventers, in Chris Benoit and Jericho. Benoit can finally have that returning feud with Austin (which would probably motivate Austin to work), and Jericho can work a program with an ELEVATED Booker T (or Jericho can possibly feud with Eddy Guerrero once RVD is done with him). That's my take on trading.......
Guest Big Poppa Popick Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Jericho is in Hell in a Cell against Triple HHH that aint midcard, that's retribution return the job you no-selling p.o.s. seriously though, i like the idea of killing the nwo and a mock horseman that benoit comes out against...him and aa can form a true horseman stable worthy of the name

As much as he's a jerk most of the time, an ongoing Shawn/Vince rivalry could be pretty damn entertaining. I wouldn't mind seeing HBK back in a vocal role. I have no idea how/if he can even perform in the ring anymore, so whether or not an in-ring role would be possible still remains to be seen. Thing is, with HBK, he might make a good face-foil to Flair's heel Owner role. Can you imagine the promos that these two could cut on eachother? God forbid they ever have a match though! *cringe*
Guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Wouldn't it be cool if Austin did a "If ya can't beat 'em, join 'em" deal where he joined the fWo (flair world order?) as a heel and Chris Jericho started a Canadian Horseman group with Christian, Benoit, and Storm? I always thought it would be cool if Jericho had a Canadian Posse. :-)
Guest converge241 Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 i'd like to see Benoit officially traded.. either Edge or Christian (they shouldnt be on the same show, just to give them space to grow). Island Boys (when the injured one recovers) Mike Sanders Prototype (with a Scott Steiner push) Sean O'Haire ( i think he has a ton of potential) Johnny the Bull ( w a new name)

As much as he's a jerk most of the time, an ongoing Shawn/Vince rivalry could be pretty damn entertaining. Except Flair and Vince really haven't been playing the feuding owner cards since the split. So, I don't know why this would have to big issue. Besides it's not like two "evil" people always have to team up (see Triple H vs. Kurt Angle).
Guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Posted May 9, 2002 Sense Raw is land of the wild Hosses i think some of the bigger guys from OVW will probably be brought up What should be done is just to let some of the peope who are never used wrestle Raw isn't really hurting for talent as much as some people make it seem so far they have lost Kane Nash Hall and Perfect all dead weight except maybe Kane i feel he can be a good worker and am still wanting his main event push to be there when he comes back but let guys like Stevie Richards, Justin Credible, Tommy Dreamer, D'lo wrestle some matches hell ya got them why not use them they are all good lower to upper midcard guys then elevate the likes of Booker T and RVD
