WWE has announced that in July not only will Smackdown be going live on Tuesday's but it will also be going back to the brand split not much has been said about this as of yet, wether they are gonna have two world champions again, or wethter they will have it when the original brand split happened when the world champion would go between shows.

the only thing i would think is if your splitting the roster, yes more talent will get exposure, but how are they gonna fill 3 hours of Raw? they struggle as it is to fill 3 hours of Raw each week, and they dont have any plans to go back to a 2 hour format.

A roster split will be interesting when it comes to who goes where, as Raw is the 'flagship' show, i'm sure they'll want to keep bigger/more popular superstars on there

When it comes to titles, there are only 5 now, so unless they have superstars competing for titles on both brands?, they might go back to having split titles, WWE & World Heavyweight champions & WWE & World Tag Team champions, not too sure about the Women's championship?, I think it used to be defended on both brands?

Getting bored with the New Day cheating and Charlotte having help one way or another it's either her dad or someone else! Think they need to stop these weak angles glad I didn't watch Extreme rules sounds like it wasn't very good and a bit predictable. Oh well no PPV for a while till my personal situation is sorted. Agree Xavier Woods needs to go maybe a turn of one of New Day to begin the end of it, or a killer match with a legendary team not many around I know but my dream team would be Demolition!

More coming out about the smackdown shake up, is that in July it will be going to Tuesday nights in the UK, well early Wednesday Mornings Live, i expect the first Smackdown to be a stacked show so it could be something to look forward too,

can WWE really produce 5 hours of Live TV each week, thats the real question, i expect Smackdown live to be a experiment they will try, Smackdown just seems like it was always changing, they kept moving what day it aired.

The brand split is a good idea, presumably Shane and Stephanie will each take control of each brand. My hunch is that the brand split will be used as a long term story-line for next year's Wrestlemania, I would suspect Brock Lesnar will work for Raw brand and Cena will be Smackdown's big name

Stephanie was the General Manager of Smackdown many many years ago, guess they might do that again

When it comes to splitting the roster, I can see more of the lower profile/seldom used superstars being on Smackdown, as Raw is the WWE's flagship show so I can see the bigger names being kept there

When the split happens, I can see John Cena staying on Raw, & maybe Randy Orton(when he comes back) heading up the Smackdown roster

think it was pretty silly for WWE to miss a step this week with a returning Seth Rollins, rather than make him face with his huge reaction from the crowd they turned him heel all of 2 minutes into his Raw return, they should of turned Seth face and Roman Heel, Roman is getting booed anyway, and if they want him to be the guy let him be a credible bad guy then theyll buy him as a face hopefully...

Roman is in need of a long heel run I think, he's not a Cena who can be booed but still be a face as he doesn't have the big fan base away from the boo-boys. The strong rumour was that Seth Rollins was going to return as a face but clearly things have changed, maybe the brand split means there needs to be a lead heel for each show now
RE: WWE

Roman Reigns' heel turn has been done in such a half assed way, 'i'm not a good guy, i'm not a bad guy, i'm THE guy'

I'd agree they could have brought Rollins back as a face, but I guess the whole face vs heel thing gets old after a while, so they've decided it's going to be heel vs heel

This Goldust, R-Truth, Tyler Breeze, Fandango feud thing is hilarious, look at the combinations/team names there's been

We had

Goldust & Fandango - Goldango
R-Truth & Tyler Breeze - Gorgeous Truth
R-Truth & Fandango - I forget the name
Goldust & R-Truth - Golden Truth
Fandango & Tyler Breeze - Breezango(I think)
