| #1 Posted on 23.3.04 1210.50 Reposted on: 23.3.11 1211.05 | Last night, I went to WWE's Smackdown page, which surprisingly was updated with guys like RVD and HHH on Smackdown. However, Booker T was also listed. This morning, he has been removed. Anyone else catch this?
Booker T on Smackdown might make sense, if they plan on continuing Teddy Long in his role of managing black wrestlers. There aren't many on the SD roster - just Shaniqua and Orlando Jordan. We can only hope they turn Booker heel and elevate him to challenge Cena or Guerrero down the road.
Also, A-Train is on the RAW page as I type this. Promote this thread! | | oldschoolhero

I don't think more than six wrestlers - total - will move, and none of them should be any higher on the roster than Rico. | samoflange

| #6 Posted on 23.3.04 1447.23 Reposted on: 23.3.11 1448.03 | If Rico stopped with his homosexual tendencies and was just heterosexually flamboyant, I think he and Dupree would make a good team for a little while until Rene finally kicked him to the curb and took Jackie with him. The two former RAW stars teaming up to take on the new SD roster wouldn't be a bad start for either of them. And having a hot chick by his side is all Dupree needs to finally kick the overbearing French gimmick and just be more of a pretty-boy heel instead.

Ya know man, that's a pretty good idea ... Jackie Gayda is much more suited to be on the eye candy based Smackdown ... she could so help Dupree get over ... I forsee a U.S. title reign for that guy by the end of the year. | Snookum

After all, Rico brought in Cena to be his "prototype" in OVW, so there's some good comedy there that they could play off of - what with Cena being so hip, and Rico being so . . . Rico . . .. :-)

Are we talking a young Lex Luger, who for a 4 or 5 year period could work in the ring when he had the right opponent/motivation, or the dog Lex Luger from 1992 through the rest of his career? | JrBernal83

Rico needs the right gimmick. His problem is that he has been stuck with gimmicks that make the audience say 'eh.' He needs a gimmick that he can embrace and get me to like or hate his character. | OMEGA

| #16 Posted on 23.3.04 1800.26 Reposted on: 23.3.11 1801.45 | As far as Booker & A-Train go, wwe.com makes little mistakes like those all the time. Until Booker shows up on SmackDown, I wouldn't put any stock into it.
If the bookers on SmackDown decided to drop Rico's current gimmick and push him in a better direction, Rico could be a nice addition to the roster. He certainly has all the tools. He just had a bad hand drawn to him when he entered WWE, and he's been stuck with it ever since. | Tenken347

| #17 Posted on 23.3.04 1805.34 Reposted on: 23.3.11 1806.32 | Actually, A-train would probably be better off on RAW right now. Smackdown still has plenty of big guys, and RAW has a Mark Henry-shaped hole they'd probably like to fill. Whether you like Henry or not, his midcard-monster status seemed like it was integral to the booking of the show at times. | Monte

Raw's on a delay, so there's time to edit it if need be.
Frankly, I've no desire to see Jackie's slips anyhoo. If I wanna see breasts, there's oodles of porn throughout the internet. |
