He's good at these fantasy bookings, he's shit at booking WCPW though.

[@LigerHD]

yup

[@alexpalomares3466]

it's cause wcpw are shitty as wrestlers well pretty much all of them

[@XiRaapiidZiX]

Probably because he mostly doesn't book this or WCPW fully

They are only an indie show though, personally I like WCPW's booking compared to TNA lol

[@JLSRawk]

+BeastBarnes97 yeah the fist added a little something

[@tomascoles9220]

NXT- storytelling

[@fletcherraymond4498]

Nah cuz Smackdown is watched less, well at that point it was, and it needs the top stars to get more weekly viewers, RAW will always have more viewers, and it being classed as the ‘A’ show, younger wrestling stars on RAW get eyes on RAW and making them look like stars. In the end, both brands are different, but both have top level viewing

[@Linator4]

I want them to use a spectrum formula. Make RAW live up to its name & be just a pure wrestling show with no overproducing. Have there be backstage panels for interviews like NJPW, make it more sports-oriented. SmackDown can be their Entertainment brand. They focus a ton on character work & storylines. While NXT is the perfect blend of the 2, make it the A-show & the pinnacle of what a wrestling show should be.

[@Stroija]

Adam... Can you move just a bit to the right... No, my right... Thanks.

[@TDItaly98]

[@zwink623]

he's centered between the left side of the screen and the WC logo

[@oOLeeHawkOo]

Rule of thirds. It's "pretty filmography"

[@StaStruk]

So basically since Shane is SD whatever Adam just said is reversed with young superstars going to SD and Mega stars going to Raw.

[@chiva4life17]

Exactly what I was thinking lol Vince would never let his "superstars" go too smackdown lol

[@michaelsuezo]

ding! exactly!

[@StaStruk]

SD will probably get like one Main guy to lead them but it's a perfect way to have someone like Finn be face of SD!

[@twistedgambit9084]

Basically, he just gave Shane crap. When he was the guy who said "new era" lol.

[@Linator4]

Well here we are practically a year later, and quite frankly, I like what they did with SmackDown, but the only problem is, they fail to maintain consecutive entertaining shows. Before the Superstar Shakeup, SmackDown Live was THE show to watch, but RAW was just impossible to watch. After the Shakeup, RAW has been improving with a ton of edge with GBOF being a very bloody PPV, this past RAW being very intense with the promos and a couple of swears dropped, & the possibility of an affair storyline being revealed next week. I'm definitely beginning to get an Attitude Era & Ruthless Agression vibe to RAW lately, but meanwhile SmackDown is just depleting and beginning to resemble the way it was before the brand split with almost no heel bookings, babyfaces going over, and constant random tag matches week in and week out. What next, is Daniel Bryan is gonna come out and tell a heel he's "gonna go 1-on-1 with da Phenomenal One" for the Main Event? Also it doesn't help that the head booker is currently Road Dogg, considering he stood with Orton in his "dive..." controversy. The point is they're not really living up to the competition. The only real competitive shows (IMO) were the week Owens won the UV title and maybe the first few weeks after WrestleMania. WWE really has to step up their game. I love the idea of a Civil War within the company for Bragging Rights, since there isn't any threat to them at this team irl, but they really never even bring up the competition until Survivor Series. They need to treat this the way Adam (currently known as Plumpy) addressed in this video, do NOT advertise the rival brand's PPV. Make the shows diverse, give them their own flavor that appeals to a different audience. They obviously did the opposite of what Plumpy had in mind and turned RAW into the casual show and SD into the hardcore show. I believe they should focus a bit more with the storytelling on RAW and throw that edge in there, while focusing on the fan anticipated wrestling on SD. Of course don't focus ONLY on those, of course give RAW some marquee matches and give SD some good storylines as well, but I'm pointing out key points. Don't focus on just Casuals, because the loyal fans won't watch the show. Also change up those goddamn stages, they're practically the same style just different models. We're trying to make them feel like different shows here! In conclusion, as Plumpy said, they need to take this seriously and maybe make trades, utilize each star to their best potential, and when the Draft comes around make the Commisioners struggle to reach those top stars! Hell, if they need examples, look no further than GM Mode from THQ's SvR 2007 & 2008! I honestly hope Vince will look at these ideas and consider them! TL;DR: My Booking - SmackDown = Wrestling RAW = Entertainment With a bit of diversity to set the brands apart and make it feel like real competition!

[@PKSparkxxDH]

[@AN-filmandmusic]

+TheArsenalMan125 yup

[@kingkusnacht]

Idea for Roman Reigns: Like the Rock, who technically was the inventor of Smackdown (the word at least) and called Smackdown his show, Reigns gets his own show. Reigns show will be called "I know a guy". In his show, he sits in the ring and consumes different kind of drugs, steroids etc. Sometimes he shows clips of him buying those drugs. On occasion, fellow wrestler like RVD, Adam Rose and Jeff Hardy join him for a drug-competition match.

True. Even if they do a brand split, it'd be good to keep at least one veteran on the the upcoming roster (maybe Smackdown) and vice versa.

[@devongrant3027]

Change the penny championships to the world tag team championships

[@devongrant3027]

Also does the brand split put less stress on the workers

[@Dikastes]

Theoretically, yeah, it should give everyone about 50 to 52 more days out of the year off to rest and recover.

[@57reaver]

I have a feeling (as im sure many others do) That this is the reason for the split, it will help alleviate all of the injuries people are getting, I mean they had what was it 5-6 of their "top talent" out for months on end, I think with a lighter in ring schedule it would allow for more healing, now with that said Im sure they will use the out of ring time for other things like promotions, appearances, etc...

[@michaelbandada9887]

I dig both the tag team titles which they had at 2002 and retired in order to make the penny title belts the official tag team titles of the entire WWE

[@kevindurant8831]

no disrespect intended btw

[@masturbatingkangaroo1532]

+Sexual Chocolate he's probably going to flip raw and smackdown as he thought Shane would be running raw with his fresh new era and Stephanie would be running smackdown but since that isn't the case it will most likely be flipped or at least I hope so and plus just about every casual fan knows what smackdown is due to all the advertisement for the brand split

[@erickrojas837]

+Sexual Chocolate what about the bandwagon s and hypocrite fans?

[@trevonburtch1353]

Not knowing what Smackdown is would be a whole new level of casual. I think you are really going out on a limb there.

[@iamr.o.b.therobot]

Nope, it's a smart idea. "Smarks" are watching both shows, no matter what. "Marks", or "Casual Fans", however you wanna call them, used to watch Raw. Now the show they prefer will become Smackdown. So, if it works out, they keep watching Raw and start watching SD regularly.

One thing I absolutely agree on, and feel that must be done with the Brand Split: If there must be individual PPV's for each brand, at least have both compete on the Big 4 of Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania, Summerslam and Survivor Series (and also, if they bring it back, Bragging Rights)

[@skorpiontamer]

[@robbiezurcher1795]

This kind of screws over the raw gets younger new talent and smackdown gets big name veterans thing you have going Shane has more of a New Era kind of vibe. I mean he basically started the New Era this would entail that he gets younger superstars Stephanie represents older big name veterans note she didn't like the idea of the new era case in point Shane canceled the Highlight Reel to give Ambrose an opportunity Stephanie then canceled the Ambrose Asylum to bring back the Highlight Reel

[@glitchfreak316]

these aren't predictions, just what he'd do

[@SupraViperhead]

Robbie Zurcher Well this was recorded before it was announced that Shane was heading SmackDown. Adam said he would have Shane running RAW, so it makes sense that he was drafting the younger talent there.

[@Downesy5667]

Just swap what he said for Raw to Smackdown and what he said about Smackdown to Raw and with a few tweaks... She'll be right

[@fletcherraymond4498]

Maybe they should have RAW with the older, established guys And SMACKDOWN having the Indy darlings. It'd work better

[@chrisanders713]

[@stevewhite1055]

First there new, what storys can they really tell atm? Second the ending of the match was part of the story, it brought on great heel hate for those people. I mean people were shitting on them for not telling a story on their first episode when they had barly shown who was the face and hells. They are building this stuff up. But by all means if you think you can do better do let us all know how it goes.

[@pdragon619]

When using WWE characters and storylines you have the benefit of working with characters that have long histories and established personalities. With a brand new company you don't have that, so the first few weeks of WCPW have been focused on establishing those characters in the first place. Yes there are a lot of messy finishes, but that is so you can establish face/heels and issues quickly. You can't just have a guy come on stage and shout "I'm a bad guy!" into a microphone, you have to SHOW them doing bad things. And with the limited scope of the show right now the easiest way to establish that is by having them mess with the endings of people's matches. You can't judge these two series with the same lens because they are literally trying to accomplish different things.

[@iamncj3897]

I think they should make smackdown the Indy show and have raw be the old timers

[@newageweeb4049]

it is going to be like that

[@dradra2day]

[@sampressley4567]

+Short Videos confirmed they wouldn't bring in Martin Kirby he has absolutely no affiliation with wwe and probably isn't even on their radar

[@jonahfassano11]

[@BS2799]

Shield is dead, let it go

[@phillies2313]

+BS2799 the shield reuniting would be one of the best things for the company at this point. If they return as a heel faction it's just great. The club turns face after their feud with Cena, the shield comes in and demolishes them out of nowhere as a sort of "We're back" statement. They talk about it the following week, yadayadayada the club and the shield feud. The shield ultimately wins and someone leaves the club and the shield become the dominant force in wwe again. They win the tag team titles still as heels and when they lose it (hopefully to Enzo and Cass) they turn face. They become the hounds of justice again and over the next year couple years after their face turn they go back and forth from face to heel and they end with one of them becoming wwe world heavyweight champion and the others getting mad and going their own ways again. Everyone wants it, whether it's heel or face it's a plus for the company. And at this point, it's the best thing for all their careers.

There is no hardcore fans , only casual fans and indie smarks

[@LostSymbolic]

I really like the ideas, but I'd do it the other way round. Raw (as it is the bigger show) for the old stars and SmackDown for the true Wrestling fans. Reason: - Many casual fans just don't watch SmackDown - The Cruiserweight Division can show great wrestling to the marks and get them smarter - Shane is on SmackDown (and hopefully Daniel Bryan is too) - Steph ist on Raw (well and I think Triple H is too) My idea for Roman Reigns: Let him do both shows, but with different gimmicks. He should be the good guy at Raw (to produce Merch-Sells by Kids), but he should HATE SmackDown!! Occasionally appearing backstage on SmackDown as a really brutal heel and always cheering up the Raw-Wrestlers before the Big 4. Most important points: - Strict split - Different looks of the shows (not the same attire in two colors) - Different commentators

[@SuperBrewcrew8]

What I would do with the tag belts is similar to your idea. Definitely have them float, however, the only time we see inter-promotions tag team title match is at the big four in a sort of "special event" match. For the rest of the year, the titles are only defended on the brand of the tag champs. This would make this matches and the title feel like a big deal, and would show actual competition between brands. The powers-that-be on each show would be ecstatic if and when one of their teams wins the title since it would add more gold and credibility to the show.

Hate this idea. Feel like each show having its own 'gimmick' would get boring. I want variety and new stars to be built among veterans. I want each show to be unique in the way they are booked, but not this drastically different.

[@viglor]

ikr

[@gokubrown7517]

As much as I love all these videos, this was honestly a bad idea. What should happen is Raw and Smackdown should legitimately compete with each other, that should add interest. Women should be in both shows as there is simply not enough of them to split into two separate rosters.

[@gokubrown7517]

Tag teams championship should also be across both brands.

[@twistedgambit9084]

Thanks, youre smarter than Adam. Hell even Vince knows this because the fans actually want this. You can have a new era and a competition if done right. But I do like the idea of the CWC being a new Crusier Weight Champion of the mix.

[@lucadynamo3758]

One thing I disagree on, and feel should be done differently: Put the WWE, US, Women's and Tag Team championships on Raw. Take the IC title to Smackdown, with the returning Cruiserweight and Hardcore titles, and invent a new world title- the WWE Universe championship, where we decide the men who will be in the Number One contender's matches and what stipulations the title bouts will have.

[@shadowdramon01]

They desperately need to cut it to 2 hours. The 3 hours has too much of nothing. And instead of 2 ppvs, I'd give each show four ppvs, and then one shared PPV each season (Royal Rumble in Winter, Wrestlemania in Spring, Summerslam in Summer, and Survivor Series in Fall).

[@flyinkiwi171]

I usually agree with you adam but here is my 5 cents worth cos im also a smartass Ill look at titles as that is basically show structure which really is all that matters at this stage 4 on each show cos they can afford to if done right (NO FLOATING!!) Raw // WWE Title (dean, feuds with step and lets face it HHH is 90% sure to be GM so they will make his life hell) US title (KO feuds with all the rising nxt talent as adam mentioned) Tag team titles (enzo and Cass) cause they are awesome and deserving and ill get to new day later, Womens Title (sasha) doesnt float all women are on Raw (explained further) Smackdown // World Heavy weight (cena) gets his 16th and carries on feud with Aj and make it actually mean something, Crusierweight (winner of CWC) most likely brian kendrick straight away the contrast in styles from heavy to cruiser weight creates a diverse show, IC title for those in between (keep miz for know) feud with ryder, de rio, sheamus etc (mid-carders), and finally 6 man tag belt (wyatts to hold to start with) continue feud with new day get a decent story line PLEASE!!!, brings the club and social outcasts into the fold and those other 3 man teams that WWE likes to form and takes the numbers game interference bullshit out of the tag titles cos that crap getting old. With the extra men on smackdown in the 6 man division it creates space for the entire womens roster to be on raw and maybe even 2 matches a show. WILDCARD!!!!! Hardcore title, this can be held by any superstar on any show raw,smackdown, nxt and as per hardcore rules is defended 24/7 allowing surprise appearances by superstars on other shows to try take the title back to there own show and is not defended on PPV. Perhaps also a rule that you have to be from another show to actually contest the belt so it doesnt just move around one show. NO STORYLINE purely to create some mystery and excitement into the shows ! Keen to see other peoples thoughts.... do reply!!!

[@MANIACITV]

Splitting the Tag Titles again is what should happen, there's too many teams. Btw splitting the rosters that way you described Adam is terrible. There should be a mix of vets and future stars on each roster.

Why can't the WWE Championship be defended on both shows? You literally said that the tag championships will have to be on both shows because, otherwise, you'll start having too many championships! You say that you need two world title belts, or the two PPV's a month will wreck havoc on the storylines and health of the champion, but surely the same could be said of the tag champions appearing on both shows/PPVs? Either you have ONE heavyweight title and ONE set of tag titles appear on BOTH shows, or you have TWO heavyweight and tag championships independent to each show. You cannot have one argument for one title being cross-brand and a different argument for a different championship being split when the original argument is still valid. So which is it gonna be Blampied?

[@mattd9881]

That wouldnt happen with the tag titles because their arent that many tag teams.

[@sirprintalot]

Matt D Yeah that makes sense. FYI, I don't want the tag titles split. And for the reasons Blampied gave for NOT splitting the tag titles, I can't see why he WOULD want the WWE Championship split. 1) It would create too many championships. 2) You only just unified the world title.

[@mattd9881]

sirprintalot Opposite of the reasoning for the tag titles, there's too many main event guys right now so 2 world titles is essential. Ambrose. Reigns. Rollins. Cena. AJ. Orton. Brock. Bray. Not to mention the big names that could be returning like Angle & Goldberg. Creative is going to need something to do with all the big names & 2 titles does just that since 3-4 guys could feud around a title all at once.

[@Hallucination]

Fuck you are stupid if you can't comprehend why it makes way more sense to hav the tag titles float from brand to brand and NOT the singles championship floating. You've really gotta be a complete idiot to think the tag titles are on the same type of level as the WWE and HW titles.

[@sirprintalot]

+Hallucination Actually if you read my OP again, you'll see that I do comprehend the argument for the world title being split as one unified title will 'wreck havoc on the storylines and health of the champion'.

[@roberthart1821]

Adam, the two PPV a month thing could have been solved by the belt being defended at the big 4 and then at any show of the champs choosing. Equally the champ can refuse b grade ppv defences (build really basic heel heat with this rule). This can give us some very well shown fighting champions. It also means the US, Intercontinental, Cruiserweight and Womens championships become more prestigious and makes the titles feel like they belong in main event matches and the superstars do to. This makes the titles feel like they truly lead to the top of the card and would have reinvigorated them in the eyes of the fans.

[@MANIACITV]

Utmost respect Adam, you smacked it for six once again. If WWE pulled their finger out and followed your format, it would bring in big ratings.

[@CookingWithCows]

When I was a child, as a german, I've always thought that Raw was the place where things moved forward, where wrestling happened and SmackDown was the "showcase travelling circus" where nothing really happens, but it has all the classic big household names. Back in the day, in germany, we only got SmackDown in free TV as far as I can remember, so to see Raw, you had to pay, so it obviously had to be the superior show, and Smackdown, that was given away for free, had to be the advertisement.

[@devilmaycry09dante]

Guess he never saw Wildcard rule happen

[@lawrencestowers6212]

A potential way to deal with anyone that is signed to the main roster that isn't active for whatever reasons such as injury, suspension-Draft them to either Raw or Smackdown anyway, however they don't turn up unless they are able to "walk across the stage" like in NBA or NFL drafts. Also don't move them down the draft order because they are injured, suspended etc. Draft them based on their value when healthy. Another potential idea-Allow a limited number of trades to occur, however they should not impact any story lines. Approach the draft like the professional sports.

[@NathanLopezz]

If this is how the rosters are, then I'll be watching a whole lot of SmackDown. Kurt Angle, Randy Orton and KEVIN FUCKING NASH!!!
