A new day is dawning for World Wrestling Entertainment, and RAW will be the starting point when every WWE Superstar will be in attendance for a lottery that will shake the very foundation for both RAW and SmackDown! Rivalries will end, partnerships will be split, and depending on the luck of the draw, Championship reigns could come to an end. Mr. McMahon declared that he wanted a shake-up and on RAW next week, that shake-up will occur as no WWE Superstar will be exempt from the lottery.
Have we seen Evolution together for the last time? Have rivalries such as that between Mick Foley and Randy Orton or Chris Jericho and Christian ended suddenly? What will happen to Champions such as Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero if they are drafted to the other roster? Will they have to forfeit their Championships?
Also, last week, Randy Orton challenged Mick Foley to a one on one match to prove once and for all that he is the better of the two. While Foley did not have a verbal response to Orton’s challenge, his actions may have spoken volumes when Foley interfered in Evolution’s match against Chris Benoit & Shawn Michaels last week and went right after Orton. If Foley and Orton are indeed on the same roster, will Foley accept Orton’s challenge? Only one way to find out … watch RAW next week!

Why, wouldn't the WWE just be giving us something to hope for again? Also, wouldn't it automatically thrust Benoit and Eddie into feuds over the belts?

This isn't freakin' WCW circa 2000, and Vince McMahon is not Vince Russo. And speaking of which, I'm still waiting for the vacant WCW World Television Title to be decided, but that's another point entirely, ha. Anyway, my take. As long as Benoit and Guerrero keep their titles after the lottery, I'm fine. Everyone else with a belt (with the exception of maybe Cena) can drop their title for all I care, but leave the World Heavyweight and WWE Titles the hell alone.

This stip could just be their way of gettig the IC belt off of Orton without him having to job it, and the same with Booker and van Dam with their move to SmackDown. There is absolutely noreason whatsoever that they would change Benoit and Eddie around.

Anyway, it's like ekedolphin said: This isn't WCW. Vince McMahon is not Vince Russo, and so I doubt that we'll have to worry about blood falling from the ceiling or popemobiles or every single title getting stripped for no goddamn reason.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a way to generate more interest in the show. I mean, I seriously doubt that any other of the hypothetical situations will happen either. I'm still excited to see what will happen, though.

Plus, Cena could be A LOT looser with his language on RAW then on Smackdown.
Maybe swap the Women's Division and Cruiserweight Division so that they can possibly edit the Women's matches on the taped show. The Cruiserweights also fit Bischoff's vibe more. Move the non-wrestling boobies all to RAW and the rasslin' women to Smackdown.
That way RAW is more raunchy with the T&A and Cena while Smackdown is more censor friendly. | samoflange

Definatly agree about swapping Cena and Orton. Plus we could get some good Cena/Austin interactions which I think would absolutly hilarious.
I don't think the cruisers and the women should switch places though, Smackdown still should stay more focused on 'wrestling' while Raw stays with more 'sports entertainment'. Hopefully what these changes will do is fix all of the mix-up of talent between their shows who would be better suited to the other show's atmosphere. Plus, who's to say Bischoff might not be going to Smackdown anyway. I think a major switch of that sort that will definately occur, with all the hype of 'big changes'.
