Dias posted:I still don't know why they split the women's and the tag division. Just put each one on different shows, focus the draft on singles and NXT callups, maybe two dudes decide to move to tag or singles competition, I'unno. Their ratings are down so far with men but steadyish with women that it'd be nuts to make the women's division brand exclusive.

Are they steady in both shows, and compared to what they were before the brand split? What about the tag divisions? From a booking perspective it feels weird to separate two very shallow divisions in half, I'm not sure if it's THE move from a business standpoint either, even if the ratings didn't budge all that much. A lot of WWE's decisions boil down to "we're not sure because every time they try to change no one commits past the adaptation stage anyway", as far as I care.

Haven't seen Smackdown demos in awhile so I'm not sure. With the tag and women they should have just had one champion across too shows. The divisions are way too shallow but it'd be weird to have one be brand exclusive.

The divisions are way too shallow but it'd be weird to have one be brand exclusive. I'd take that too, I guess. Exclusive divisions could be cool as a way to differenciate both products and maybe make people engage Smackdown AND Raw, but I suppose five hours of wrestling probably would mean people ignoring an entire division, which means reduced merch sales/house show tickets so yeah.

Anyway now that I'm home and not phone posting, the Observer break down of the Raw Ratings by Big Dave http://www.f4wonline.com/wwe-news/wwe-raw-ratings-reach-another-record-low-week-236116 And yeah, the WWE is pretty much screwed next TV rights negotiation unless they heat the product up soon

Brand split is dumb. Not enough top level talent on each roster to make it interesting. Just make Raw the show that focuses on the WWE Championship, Women's Championship, and Tag Team Championship. Make Smackdown the show that focuses on the IC and US Championship. Can even do something interesting like make the US Championship one that US wrestlers primarily vie for and IC primarily for international talent (even add the flag of the title holder to it). If you're combining the brands you could also probably create a Women's Tag belt too. The brand split sucks because the belts mean absolutely nothing now.

Shane spent literally years in China on an errand to bring PPV there as an untapped market. Now WWE has put the belt on Mahal based off facebook likes originating in India of an Asian untapped market. There is zero Jinder merchandise. This is an amazing thing.

I always found it odd that there's a compulsion to have one of each "tier" of belt on each show. I mean, if you want to make them important, have one of each. Split the brands. If your show doesn't have a belt, then your goal is to go get it from the other brand. You can still have your stories, petty squabbles, intermingled with this. I'm sure there are flaws in this idea. And obviously this is easier said and done, and really underlines (to me, anyway) that the main problem is bad (or inconsistent) writing. It just seems like, you'd at least have some fall-back motivation for a character if you found yourself in a lull or unsure what to do with a given worker.
