Since Eric is gone who do you think will be the next General Manager of RAW?

Please give reason why too... since Boogeyman will get you a "HUH?" from me! LOL

Well if it isn't Shane I would like to see Chris Jericho be GM. People who I would hate to see as GM are:

Jerry Jarrette
Dusty Rhodes
Debra
and even though I love him Bret Hart.

I wouldn't mind seeing Y2J as GM.

Do you think maybe this is the time that Vince reconnects the two brands? Put Teddy Long as GM and have someone like Foley to watch over him (like as Comissioner)

Maybe just maybe they will unite and become one brand again.

god i hope that happens the whole 2 show competition when you're on the same business thing is getting annoying, i mean it's two shows owned by WWE i mean it won't exactly double the income when you think about it since TNA is in now...but that's just me, but i hope that WWE becomes WWE once again instead of it being WWE RAW and WWE Smackdown! because that is....stupid

Oh my god that would rock. I am getting so tired of the whole 2 show thing. but I would love it if Shane was the new GM. its been so long since he has been on Tv for any lenth of time and I am a huge fan of his. or Hogan.

It would be an absolutely horrible buisness move. The WWE re-uniting would mean the titles have to get re-united. You can only have one top dog. It would also push alot of people like Kurt Angle and HBK down to mid-card status so we can constantly have Cena VS Batista. Plus a LOT of places in the US do not get UPN so WWE would lose alot of viewers as people would not be able to tune in each week. We went a few years with the two brands not competeing. So far its only happened a few times each year. I say keep it that way. Two Brands = More superstars, more storylines, more performers in general.

Re-uniting them = More superstars layed off (We can only have so many jobbers), less storylines, more spotlight deserving superstars pushed down a notch. 3nodding

i'd have to agree with him. if the 2 brands reunite, then there will be less viewers, a lot less superstars and less storylines and titles. i rather not have the titles re-unite nor lose a lot of wrestlers potential.

besides, shane will become the new gm of raw as vince stated last week. if not, it will be someone who vince thinks can handle it.

you all post interesting points, but you must notice this... whoever does not want to go to war is gay..{family guy humor}
kay back to the subject.. mixing the brands together has its ups and downs..
hey jeckal theres something called velocity and heat you know...
okay back to where i was..

Ups
- It could make up for the loses in one year
- They ratings could go up
- Possibly better Story Lines
- and also if they cant watch upn, watch velocity{if it comes back to tv}.

Downs
-More talent would Job
-Only one main event title

wait one minute,........ they should mix the brands.. why? becuase then other supertars can be on that show and have a better chance at a title. for example .. say Kurt Angle is IC and defeats Tyson Tomoko on raw.. and then since the brands are combined in one, tyson can go to sd and face the us champ chris beniot.. and wins, so everyones happy if the brands mix, some people wont, but thats the price you pay if your with the wwe i guess.

I have to agree with Jeckal on this one. I've said for awhile now that they had too much top-line talent sitting around doing nothing or competing for lesser titles. It's gotten better in the last few months, but you still have top-level people doing nothing important. Case in point...Edge. Say what you want, i've thought of him as a big-title contender for several years. And he continually gets stuck with lower titles, or like now...nothing at all. He's just one example. Then there's all the slightly lesser talent that gets shunted to the web shows. Shelton Benjamin should be on RAW every friggin week, in the middle of the fight with Triple H and Flair. You get my point. If you combine the shows, you now have even more people than before fighting for the same limited-availability spotlight. You'll end up with people like Angle and Benoit only showing up on Heat, and that's just a huge mistake.
