Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

The only thing that saves Crews is a new character. People just don't care about him and letting him do more flips won't help him at this point. Even the potential of a more dynamic partner in a tag team I suspect would just drag that person down. Maybe he could be the muscle with big spots in a midcard comedy stable? That's his ceiling as he is right now.

What's the "Triple H's stable" thing I saw a few people mention? Is Triple H still doing a "NXT guys are my babies" thing? If so theoretically you could throw Crews into a sort of NXT Evolution with Joe and Owens and that could maybe reset him a little.

That could work and it'd be a huge boon for Crews even if he's the guy taking pins there. But I'd be shocked and baffled if they spent a spot on Triple H's next thing on Crews.

In the WWE yeah probably. I know not fair him and Tozawa belong together. I honestly forgot about that potential and if they're bringing Crews over to Raw to reunite them I take back everything and let's see what happens.

I mean, there's always gotta be someone taking pins in a stable and Crews sort of fits. And as you said, he'd be getting a huge boost even if it would just to be the stable jobber.

But I haven't been paying attention so I don't know if there are more likely options. If they were to go against something like a face Club then maybe you'd grab a tag team like The Revival in there. But I'm just fantasy booking at this stage because I don't know what the hell is going on.

I mean, I doubt it will happen, too, but I think Crews has a future in a tag team to rehab his character.

Seriously. AJ/Shane was the best match on the show and Goldberg/Lesnar was exactly what it had to be. Triple H/Rollins was also pretty great, but the crowd was unfortunately dead for the most part.

If Charlotte & Sasha are indeed coming too thats a pretty fair trade. Smackdown now has the far better women's division (Charlotte / Becky / Sasha we know can have good matches, Naomi / Nattie are servicable)

Tag team still gonna suck but who cares.

AJ Styles, Nakamura, Kevin Owens will be a good top 3 with which you can do interesting things. All that really matters is AJ Styles, he's far and away the best wrestler (and maybe even talker these days) in the company, he can carry a show by himself.

Smackdown will continue being a lot better than Raw

The Smackdown women really need more than just Charlotte and Sasha so I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Billie and Peyton show up.

Seriously though, on the male side, if they add Owens and Zayn and bring in Almas, they're fine.

Styles, Orton, Nakamura, Owens, Zayn, Almas, Corbin, Harper is a really good group.

I wonder if they've ditched the HHH stable idea, at least for now. With Owens going to SD, Styles not moving, and Balor seemingly face. Hopefully so.

Its the Raw women that would need help if those two are gone. Raw would be effectively Bayley / Nia / Alexa, which is a recipe for terrible matches
