Should they finally split Smackdown and RAW into two completely different entities? I don't even mean different rosters, I mean different all together. KInd of like in the Attitude Era when you had the WAR Zone for the first hour which was less profane and then the 2nd hour was RAW is WAR which was more of an anything goes until the censors started cracking down.
Obviously, RAW is the flagship show. This is where the edgier or more risque story lines would be The Shield, Orton, CM Punk, Ziggler, Swagger, DelRio. Here they can get a way with more. A face doesn't necessarily have to be a knight in shining armor and can be edgier. Someone like AJ Lee can get power bombed through a table. Booze and the occasional profanity would be welcome.
On the other end, Smackdown could be more kid friendly. You could have guys like Sheamus and Ryback as classic can do no wrong good guy faces. Guys like Mark Henry and Big Show could play the role of the classic heel.
Then you spread the rest of the roster evenly by which type of role they'd be better suited for. Guys like Zach Ryder and Santino Marella may just be annoying in the eyes of the older crowd, but if they were strictly exposed to younger viewers, they could be quite successful and marketable.
Not sure where Cena would go. While he is blatantly the top dog on the WWE roster, and you'd expect him to be in the top show, if their was a show geared more toward a younger audience, you'd think that he'd be better suited there. He'd perhaps have to split his time.
