The WWE...is YOURS

[Mighty NorCal]

I know there have been simular threads, to the concept, but I want this one to go much better. I want people to critique each others ideas, and to offer their own. Im going to come back and post in here a new "overall" post every few days, with the best ideas fro EVERYONE, so we can see how good we can make this as a Group.

Basically, the premise is this...Vince Mcmahon has just died, and through whatever miracle, you are now in complete control of the WWE. What do you do with it, how do you make it better???

In these posts, I want everything. What you would do overall, how the matches should be booked, the PPV schedule, how the titles would work, what pushes you would give and to whom. Basically everything that everyone bitches about on here, tell me then, how you would change it.

As for mine....
The Rosters
First, I will end the brand split. Everyone, on every show. Now thats not to necessarily mean that people will get buried, becuase EVERY one, wont be on EVERY show. It will almost be like a brand split without being defined it would just free up the roster depth a little more, and give every night more of a big night feel.

The Brands (shows)
Firstly, ECW is over. The show being named that just alienates a lot of fans, and does nothing but Disgrace a once proud name. I will still have a show based primarily on wrestling, and young up and comers, but it will be a two hour program on saturday afternoons. The show will primarily be filmed in smaller arenas, in the florida area, so as being easier to bring up FCW guys for either an introduction to TV, or just bring them up for a squash. This show will be about the lower, younger, or up and coming guys, and may have just one ME level or upper mid card guy on top of the card. This show would be very reminiscent of WCW saturday night, and would emphasize cruisers, and mid card to upper mid card guys. SD!, will be moved to thursday, as to avoid any of my shows being back to back, to avoid fans being burnt out during the week. Both RAW and SD! would have a balance of entertainment/promo/wrestling, instead of one show emphasizing one or the other as it is right now.

Titles
One main WWE title. We put the ECW title on someone High profile, if not just for a week, and then at the next PPV, there is a triple threat unifacation match. Create the "world wrestling entertainment heavyweight championship". And use elements from all three belts. It would look prestigous, and classic, and be large. MY heavyweight champ would LOOK like a heavyweight champ. Now if I had to do it all the sudden, as in my mcmahon dies scenario, id do it at the next PPV. If the WWE was going to realistically do it, This would obviously just be built towards until WM.

Both the US AND IC title would get to stay. Why you ask?? Becuase every successfull promotion has always had TWO mid card titles, although it s generally a TV title. I think the US and IC both have too much history behind them to just abolish one, and like I said, I think having two mid card titles isnt a bad thing. I mean fuck its not like we have three Heavyweight championships right now. Two mid card titles, being the IC amd US, certainley couldnt hurt. Give the equal booking, and I belive this wouldnt be hard to do, as with the brand split u have an abundance of guys who will be vying for either title.

And obviously, unify the tag belts. I think between all the shows at the moment you could have a fairly decent tag division. Split? obviously not, as we can all see. But all together could certainley be passable.

The womens title can stay, as there is a market of f ans who really do enjoy quality womens wrestling. Hell, I enjoy quality womens wrestling. But thats just it. In my WWE, the vast majority of the divas are going to be just that, divas. On screen personalities, interveiw girls for different shows, used in promos, and as valets. The only currrents that get to stay, are Mickie James, Victoria, Beth Pheonix, and Melina. The rest will fill the roles stated above. Im sure Echelon will inform me of who else I should bring in, to flesh out the rest of my WRESTLERS in my female WRESTLING divison.

The cruiserweight title would be brought back, loud and proud. I would heavily recruit Mexico, and Japan for my Cruisers, and the division at first anyway, would be carried by Jamie Noble.

PPV
One per month, 30$, always AT LEAST three hours. As follows...
January-Royal Rumble
Same format as now. Have the WWE title match as undercard, and perpetuate some feuds. Probably a tag title match, as no one is going to belive that a memeber of the tag champs is gonna win the rumble, so why waste them? Also a womens title match, falling under the same reasoning. Winner gets a shot at WM.

Febuary-No Way Out
I like having the EC at this event, if not just for the name of the PPV. It could be ysed in anumber of ways, wether it be to get anothe rguy into the MW main event, or to solidify the champ with a title defense here, as to make him look stronger for the WM build. You could also go in the way of shocker upset to give you a new champ going into the last 5 weeks before WM.

March-WrestleMainia
The biggest, longest, craziest event of the year. Titles change hands, feuds are ended, torches are passed. WIll always be in a huge arena, generally football stadiums, wether they be outdoor, or indoor.

April-BackLash
Basically, revenge from WM, feuds from WM are either wrapped up, or continued, or new ones are began.

May- One Night Stand
Postively ends feuds from WM, and probably any new ones from Backlash, as this will be an all gimmick match PPV.

June- King Of The Ring
One night, eight man tournament, the winner recieving a title shot at SummerSlam. The PPV primarily focuses on the tourney, with most likely a tag title, a WWE heavyweight title match being the only non tournament matchs. The first round will be regular matches. The semi Finals will be in a "spin the wheel make the deal" format, were a wheel will be spun to elect a random gimmick for the match, including triple threat, were a suprise "random" entrant from the back gets lucky, and gets into the tournament. This tournament is "King of the RING" should it should be able to encompass any and all matches that are held in the ring. The finals will be another regular wrestling match.

July- Great American Bash
Build toward Summerslam, work some feuds that are started out of the KOR

August-SummerSlam-the WM of Summer, pretty much built the way it is now

September-Unforgiven
The "backlash" to Summerslams "Wrestlemania". continue fueds, and start off the fall right.

October- Halloween Havoc
Held near halloween, with the elaborate sets that used to be used by WCW. Generally will incorporate some type of macbre match, wether it be casket, last man standing, HIAC, Buried alive. SOmething big, and "scary".

November-Survivor Series
All about the elimination tag matches, besides one WWE title match. the remaining survivors from each team will be put into a battle royal later in the night, to win a survivor series ring (yes like battlebowl. may evenn call it that)

December-Cyber Sunday/Armageddon
The concept of Cyber Sunday remains, IE the fans pick the opponets/gimmicks they would like to see, in an onus to them for the last PPV of the year. I dont particularly enjoy the tagline of "cyber sunday" and I think "Armageddon" would applicable, given the crazy random, and eventually very brutal, enviornment of this PPV.

Either GAB, or SummerSlam, WOULD BE held outdoors, probably in a football/soccer stadium. This would more likely be GAB, as to enhance the American feeling, atmosphereic feel. SummerSlam would be able to sell itself as the WM of the summer, so GAB would be sold on romanticism. PPVs would be very unpredictable, and would take on a feeling of anything CAN happen. Title changes will regularly go down on PPVs. Halloween Havoc will occur close to halloween, Survivor series close to Thanksgiving. Armageddon would be the weekend before christmas, and the wrestlers would be the week of, and 2 days after christmas off.

My matches
Would generally have clean finishes. Heels would be booker to look strong and threatening, not weak. Triple Threat would be one fall to a finish, anything else, IE fatal four way, five man, or 6 pack, would be elimination.


Tha pretty much covers how my WWE would run. Everyone come forth with your ideas, make suggestions and critiques on mine, and each others. You dont like something about WWE? fix it. Thanks everyone for your support on this one, in advance, as I know itll be a time consuming post. I want to come back every few posts, and make a new, overall one, taking the best ideas from everyone, and seeing what we can collectively come up with as a group.

[Slyfox696]

I'll critique yours, so you can improve. From that you should be able to get an idea of a basic premise of mine.

This will still require your to shorten the overall rosters, meaning you have guys being paid without working, or bringing any money in. Not really a good way to present company growth to stockholders.

The Brands (shows)
Firstly, ECW is over. The show being named that just alienates a lot of fans, and does nothing but Disgrace a once proud name.

No offense, but this idea is terrible. Sound good for wrestling concept, but terrible for every realistic reason.

1) Filming separately means you have to hold a separate show, which means paying for another venue, a venue that will not bring in NEAR enough money to support the filming of a show with WWE production values.

2) Jobber shows are never watched, so you run a high risk of losing your TV deal, costing yourself a lot of money in TV revenue. Finally, you're going to be losing a lot of money on a show that does very little for your bottom line.

3) They already had a show like that. It was Ohio Valley Wrestling. You might not have heard of it because nobody cared about it. Your idea is basically OVW part 2. And, when you are thrown off the network because of poor ratings, you WILL be OVW part 2.

The difference between this and WCW is that Turner owned both WCW and TBS, meaning that the show always had a national broadcast station. The WWE doesn't have that. Plus, when WCW Saturday Night was on, the company was bleeding money.

SD!, will be moved to thursday, as to avoid any of my shows being back to back, to avoid fans being burnt out during the week. Both RAW and SD! would have a balance of entertainment/promo/wrestling, instead of one show emphasizing one or the other as it is right now.

Good idea, except TNA Impact is on Thursday. So, you will be putting your only other TV show, the "B" show of the WWE, on a poor network station, against TNA's prime show. And, while TNA is not a threat now, they're just one good storyline away from competing with your second show.

Titles
One main WWE title. We put the ECW title on someone High profile, if not just for a week, and then at the next PPV, there is a triple threat unifacation match. Create the "world wrestling entertainment heavyweight championship". And use elements from all three belts. It would look prestigous, and classic, and be large.

For the most part, this I like, except the cruiserweight title is not necessary and is a waste of time and money.

PPV
One per month, 30$, always AT LEAST three hours.

Silly. You're losing a lot of potential revenue here.

As follows...

Armageddon would be the weekend before christmas, and the wrestlers would be the week of, and 2 days after christmas off.

Meh, all of this isn't bad or good, just kind of standard. The only thing you should change would be June's King of the Ring. King of the Ring tournaments are always boring.

My matches
Would generally have clean finishes.

Even on TV? If you have clean finishes on TV, why would anyone want to buy the PPV?

Heels would be booker to look strong and threatening, not weak.

Then heels become cheered, and then become faces. And, if everyone is face, then there's a serious lack of caring by wrestling fans. Heels HAVE to look like they just barely hang on. Heels rarely can look dominant and stay heel.

Tha pretty much covers how my WWE would run. Everyone come forth with your ideas, make suggestions and critiques on mine, and each others. You dont like something about WWE? fix it. Thanks everyone for your support on this one, in advance, as I know itll be a time consuming post. I want to come back every few posts, and make a new, overall one, taking the best ideas from everyone, and seeing what we can collectively come up with as a group.

If I have time later, I'll add more of my own.

Never said it wouldnt reqiure me to shorten the rosters a little. and people wont be getting paid to not work. Thats why I allowed myself SIX HOURS of programming weekly, and one specifically desighned to get the younger guys over.

.

Which is why I would stay to smaller venues, as they wouldnt cost as much to rent out. and I would stay in the same area, maybe work out small lease agreements with areas. It wouldnt be a "jobber program" it would be reminiscent to the current ECW program, just on steroids. The ME level guys will probably dominate both weekday shows, so there will be plenty of room for second teir guys to get action, on here. I mean guys like Kennedy, Hardy, Benjamin, CM Punk would be the main guys here, and I think they could sell out 5,000 seat arenas just fine, personally.

at what point did I ever imply SD! would be a "B" show?? It wouldnt, it would be balanced with RAW, wich is another reason I would end the Brand split. both shows would be every bit as big as each other every week. If anything, it would further crush TNA impact.

I think you will be met with a lot of opposition on this thread. Ill leave it up to others to battle you on that quote lol

personally, I dont think so. A lower price makes it more accessable to a larger group of people, therin making higher buy rates, and more revenue. Wrstling is marketed towards children frist and foremost. Children who will be trying to convince thier parents to purchase PPVs for them. It will beeasier to convince a parent to purchase something for 29.95$ as opposed to 40$ or 50$. And at the risk of sounding ignorant, I would imagine that large portion of wrestling fans arent the most extremely affluent. I think make the price lower makes the shows more accesable to purchase to a larger amount of people.

I highly anticpate that. Im sure itll have some great stuff that no one else thought of. thanks for contributing Sly.

You can only have so many wrestlers on at a certain time. With the same guys working Raw and Smackdown, that leaves only one program for guys who will not be working PPV. Which means, you'll have to shorten your roster.

Which is why I would stay to smaller venues, as they wouldnt cost as much to rent out. and I would stay in the same area, maybe work out small lease agreements with areas. It wouldnt be a "jobber program" it would be reminiscent to the current ECW program, just on steroids.

I mean guys like Kennedy, Hardy, Benjamin, CM Punk would be the main guys here, and I think they could sell out 5,000 seat arenas just fine, personally.

ECW can't sell out 5000 seat arenas by themselves now, how do you think they're going to do that when put as the jobber program?

When you factor in the poor ratings, the lack of attendance and high production values, this show would be losing you money.

at what point did I ever imply SD! would be a "B" show?? It wouldnt, it would be balanced with RAW, wich is another reason I would end the Brand split. both shows would be every bit as big as each other every week. If anything, it would further crush TNA impact.

Smackdown is inevitably the "B" show. Using the same talent, the new show will play second fiddle to the flagship show. It always has, and always will. It's inevitable.

I think you will be met with a lot of opposition on this thread. Ill leave it up to others to battle you on that quote lol

Cruiserweight divisions have never drawn in America, and adding another title only decreases the overall value and prestige to the other titles.

personally, I dont think so. A lower price makes it more accessable to a larger group of people, therin making higher buy rates, and more revenue. Wrstling is marketed towards children frist and foremost. Children who will be trying to convince thier parents to purchase PPVs for them.

And at the risk of sounding ignorant, I would imagine that large portion of wrestling fans arent the most extremely affluent. I think make the price lower makes the shows more accesable to purchase to a larger amount of people.

You may not personally think so, but just look at the last few years. The WWE has raised PPV prices, which lowered PPV buys, BUT have increased revenue. Go and look in the General Wrestling forum where I posted the financial information, and see how their revenue has increased.

[RAWneedsMYSTERIO]

Alright,

I Like The PPVs expecially Halloween Havoc and Jamie Noble as champ.

Instead of a brand split though, Just Have A Draft Every Year That Could Give New Matches For PPVs and Weekly Shows. Instead Of Batista vs...... every PPV.

Post Back I Want People To Tell Me What They Thinks Wrong With That

P.S And By The Way, Great Thread Idea

[Luther_Hull FTW]

I wouldn't change a lot to be honest, the WWE are by far the best wrestling promotion out there, they must be doing something right.

I'd keep the celebrity involvement, I like it, and it gets WWE a shitload more publicity. Hell, the number of people I've heard arounf my college talking about Mayweather is unreal. It's not exactly taking away from you traditionalists either is it? You're still getting like six matches containing strictly wrestlers and only one with a celeb, yet that one match is what will make the WWE money, so no complaints from there.

I'd also keep the brand extension the way it is. I like the fact that ECW is a sort of developmental territory, it doesn't exactly bother me that there's no extreme rules, although I'd probably try and include one match like that in each weeks program. I'd also give the ECW title to someone like Kane to give it a bit of credibility, it hasn't had that since the Big Show's reign.

As far as the PPVs go, I'd do this.

January: Obviously, I'd have the Royal Rumble here, held in a prestigious venue like MSG, I'd keep the format basically the same, with the Royal Rumble match being at the end of the show. I'd also have some sort of cruiserweight open here.

February: No Way Out, the usual stuff, the Rumble winner puts their shot on the line here, like what usually happens. I'd have some type of cage match here as well, probably the elimination chamber for the brand that didn't win the Royal Rumble, either that or a tournament climaxing in a steel cage.

March: WrestleMania, the grandaddy of them all. You know the drill, held in the biggest stadiums in America, full of OTT pyro, lasers, stages, the lot. A real spectacle, rock bands performing as the big stars enter. I'd also have at least one match involving a celebrity, this is to bring in the masses, the general public who are meh on wrestling.

April: Backlash, this would be gimmick rematches of WM, a smaller scale do, but an important stage on developing feuds.

May: Judgment Day, I'd have a Hell in a Cell in here to end one of the Main Event feuds, this would be ending most of the feuds that came through Mania.

June: Night of Champions, I'd ditch the Vengeance name due to the Benoit thing. This idea has potential if the feuds are built up properley, not just made last minute.

July: Fully Loaded, the GAB alienates the international market. I'd rather bring back Fully Loaded and have it done in a Raw Roulette style. Broadcast from somewhere like Vegas or Atlantic City.

August: SummerSlam, except it would be an international PPV. Like WrestleMania but held somewhere like Wembley, the Tokyo Dome, Stadio Azteca or somewhere like that. It would just help the WWE spread the name around.

September: Unforgiven, essentially Backlash again, rematches of SummerSlam ut with slight differences.

October: Halloween Havoc, the Judgment Day so to speak, this will end feuds that have come from SummerSlam. It'll also include a ridiculous gimmick match, like that one with the electric chair.

November: Survivor Series, held in somewhere like an indoor ballpark, bigger than the conventional arena, smaller than the stadiums of WM and SSlam. A few 5 on 5s, but also the finals of a tournament to find the new number one contender, who get's their shot that night.

December: Armageddon, including the Undertaker and his gimmick matches.


I'd also have other events such as SNME but exclusive to certain countries, such as a UK only event called "Live in London" or something cheesy like that, to be shown live. Like the exclusive PPVs, but free, in countries such as the UK, Australia and Japan.

[Capt. Charisma]

Heres a random idea I just had- On Smackdown create like a league ranking system for the title, in order to be eligible for the league you must have held a previous title in the WWE. This ensures contenders are legit and beliveable. The Heavyweight title league consists of the top five contenders to the title on Smackdown. Each week there are one or two matches from the league, a win gives a wrestler 4 points, a draw gives them 1 point, and a loss gives them -1 point. Only matches against felow league members count for points, and they must be a 'sactioned league match'. The wrestler with the most points after each PPV wins a match with the champion. Wrestlers can be relegated from the league by having the least number of points after a PPV, or through injury, or through 'bad behaviour'. Everytime there is a new champion the league points reset to zero. This league runs seasonaly for 6 months during either winter or summer, after that Smackdown reverts back to how it operates now. In the event of a tie in the league on points then there is a triple threat match betwen the champion and 2 contenders, if 3 are tied a fatal four way etc. For a better idea I have done an example of what it might be like below-

Champion- Batista

Contenders League

1.Edge 24
---------------------
2.The Undertaker 21
3.MVP (Current no.1 contender) 20
4.Rey Mysterio 9
---------------------
5.The Great Khali 4

The basic idea of this is to create matches with meaning, both on PPV and on Smackdown. More meaningful matches mean people will want to watch to see what happens, espcially if a wrestler is close to securing a title shot, or been relegated. I just had this thought now randomly so go easy on it lol.

[Mighty NorCal]

Hm, very interesting, albeit somewhat confusing idea.

Why would you have it only on SD? and how could MVP be the number one contender, and not have the most points? wouldnt that make Edge the number 1 contender? I think this idea would have a pretty huge interesting implications if used with my no more brand split WWE title idea. If it were one HUGE championship league. Not sure how well it would work though,, as I dont know if the vast majority of WWE fans have the mental acumen and patience to kepe up with something like that.

[Capt. Charisma]

Well I thought that smackdown is probably the best place to try out an idea like this see how the fans react. MVP was the top points scorer at the last ppv but has since fallen behind the others, he wud still get his shot from last month though if ya get me. Otherwise what happens when someone gets overtakenbefore there title shot, if ya get me.

[Mighty NorCal]

well, then they loose their title shot and no longer are the number one contender I would think, I thought that was the whole point of the contender league no? I thought thats what would make it intriguing, Seeing as how the lead could change numerous times, and number one contenders could be overtaken for their spot. If it doesnt make any difference if u get overtaken for your spot, yet still get your title shot, then whats th emotivation to keep winning?
