Since the trade rumors have started up again, why don't we set up a few possible scenarios that might help both brands.
Trade #1: Chris Benoit for Chris Jericho
As much as I hate to say this, Jericho will never go over HHH. So move him to Smackdown where he can verbally assault Lesnar and make a title run.
Benoit can go after HHH in a nicely built up feud paying off at SUmmerslam. Then you can feed him to Goldberg at some point. Because eventually it WILL be AUSTIN Vs. GOLDBERG at WMXX.
They should trade Undertaker, Rikishi, A-Train and the APA to RAW for RVD, Jericho, Christian, Booker T and The Hurricane. Then, I would only feel compelled to watch one show a week.

Same for me, although I might be inclined to leave RVD on Raw, and A-Train on SD, as I've lost all interest in the former, and the latter is growing on me.
I'd even give Helms a run as arrogant dick heel Sugar Shane Helms. He could cut a promo on how comic books are for losers, he didn't get any girls, he'd be sigining autographs for kids while all the "boys" were hooking up w/ chicks.
what a concept ... putting the cruiserweights (Spike and Hurricane) on the show with the other Cruiserweights and the title
Eh, I don't want to see Spike in the cruiser division. He'd fit in about as well as Scotty Too Hotty. Neither really work a cruiser style, or even the WWE-ized cruiser style.

I hearby nominate OlFuzzyBastard for new head booker of WWE. I could use that extra two hours on Monday night. As long as we're at it, let's trade Stephanie for Bischoff, as I can't stand Steph, but think Bischoff is a tremendos performer.

I third that motion. The only reason I watched RAW after the initial split, was because of RVD and Booker. All the other talent, at the time, was on Smackdown. Bastards probalby did it on purpose, even though they knew neither would get a serious run at the belt... grumble, grumble...

While we're at it, let's send Val Venis over to Smackdown in exchange of Billy Gunn.

Oh no! Val Venis reminded me that we've forgotton about Lance Storm. Send him over to in exchange for Australia's biggest embarassment, Nathan Jones.
God, I wish they'd put the Wienerboard in charge of WWE. Just for one week, at least.
Jericho Storm Helms (the red & green K/Cane's idea is done) Christian Booker T Goldust RVD (I know, but fighting Brock would be more entertaining)
To RAW:
APA Billy Gunn Bill DeMott Big Show Undertaker Nathan Jones Mark Henry
Monday night becomes the muscle-bound ballet/ECW holdovers show, while the technical/cruiserweights hold court on Thursday. It also furthers the brand extension by showcasing two distinct 'styles' of wrestling. FWIW.
"Since I look forward to the Workrate Reports like Tammy Sytch looks forward to Half-Off-For-Crack-Whores Night at the local IHOP, rest assured that had I read his sucker punch joke first, I would have skipped my own, for Dean rules."
I've been vying for this for a while, of course. Jericho, Hurricane, Lance Storm, RVD, Christian, Regal, Booker for Taker, Big Show, Rikishi, Albert, Mark Henry, Bradshaw and Faarooq. Hmm, that might possibly suck Raw into a black hole, but thats why we leave most of the "big names" on Raw for entertainment value. We could trade Hogan for Rock(assuming that either come back, I think Hogan will). And with Austin, Michaels, Nash, Flair, Trips and crew, Raw should be all set. Raw for entertainment, Smackdown for 'sport'. Why don't they use this?!!
**Oh yes, and trade La Resistance for ANY other up and coming tag team down in OVW. PLEASE.
(edited by darkmatcher on 2.7.03 2044) what you say
(Besides, Sean McAdam's columns are more in-depth than Gammons'. Just saying.)
Can they deal someone for prospects? I just think it would be awesome to turn on RAW, only to find out Jericho's been dealt to SD for 2 minor-leaguers and "cash considerations."
Originally posted by JeffHardy4Everthey need 2 trade all the women to raw and the cruserwights to sd because the womens title is on raw and the cruserwight is on sd
Not all the women in WWE can wrestle. The ones that can are on RAW.
And I don't think their are any cruiserweights on RAW besides maybe Hurricane who they are trying to push as a possible heavyweight single star.
