I get an email newsletter everyday, and today's said that since tonite is a "supershow" in san jose with both raw and smackdown (it is a taping of 4 hours), that Batista may choose to face JBL(or big show) at Wrestlemania for the WWE championship. That would set up Cena vs. HHH if they switched brands. I wouldnt mind seeing Cena on the RAW brand, but i'd hate to lose talent like Batista. (and yes, i am a biased raw fan). I dont think Smackdown should lose Cena either, they already have a lot of big guys like batista. Its like Lesnar all over again.

So, whats the deal with wrestling now. WWE owns the only two leagues and they don't face one another.


Thats lame IMO.

I miss the days when it was Million Dollar Man, and that crack head Jake the Snake, and earthquake, Ultimate warrior and hacksaw duggan . That was cool.

I think this is a horrible idea. But with this start to RAW tonight, it looks like it might go down that way. Batista should face Triple H.

That would suck! Batista should stay on Raw. Hes more popular than Cena and would most likely get shoved to mid-card status on Smackdown! imho. Plus,Batista would have a better shot of beating HHH than Cena. Is Cena even in the title picture anymore on Smackdown!???

Cena's US champ,so I don't think he'd jump.

If there's someone who SHOULD make the jump,it's Chris Jericho. He's lost in the shuffle on Raw and can get into the title chase right off the bat.

Id hate to see Batista go...I love the mind games he's playing with HHH :chillin:

Nah he's not gonna switch. Batista will stay on Raw and Face HHH at Mania. That JBL clip is gonna come back to HHH as the one showing it as he is afraid to face Batista, but they'll carry out the possible "jump" to SD! until a few weeks before WM21

JBL is a complete joke. That hes been allowed to hold the top SD! title for almost a year is one of the worst business decisons ever made by the WWE. He has successfully established the WWE Title as the clear #2 title in the WWE. Even Brock Lesnar didn't do that to the title.

The problem is that no one on SD! deserves the title. That is the reason I'm not as upset as most people are about JBL. At least he makes me laugh during his interviews!

I like the suggestion of moving Jericho to SD! He could bring back some more credability to the WWE Title, and establish solid fueds with either Eddie Gurerro or Kurt Angle, after squashing JBL. That would be nice.

I agree with the Chris Jericho idea. On raw he is kind of lost as a mid-card guy, but on Smackdown they could make him a bigger star. He has the talent...

this sounds familiar...wasn't this the same arguement for moving Booker T. and RVD???

Yes, but Vince decided it was better to elevate Bradshaw and Undertaker. Great thinking there.

thegame,it'd be a good idea to have Jericho feud with Guerrero,and it may re-energize Eddie. However,I wouldn't put too much with him feuding with Angle. To begin with,Kurt's neck is screwed up badly enough that he'll,most likely,never again approach the main-event level he reached. Why do you think he's doing short matches on SD! with indy guys?

Well Booker didn't help matters when he showed up on SD! and called it the B show! RVD isn't very entertaining unless he goes all out and Vince, so far, has never allowed that kind of wrestling outside of WM!
