It could make way for NXT to truly be devolpmental? IIRC NXT also has some TV deals in place in some markets so who knows what will happen.
I think it says alot that most of the roster (Save for the chosen few) won't know where they will be. And Vince has a history of breaking up teams, family's, crews, and more for not really any defined reason.
I honestly expect Vince to split up every tag team including a team like American Alpha so he can get Jordan away from Gable.
The 3 key points of a brand dependency will be as follows:
1. Vince must have a hands off approach to the booking of smackdown. Let Ward and HHH run the show without constant last minute changes to every script. Idealy Vince should have a list of guidlines for specif things to avoid (Rape, guns, murder, racism based angles for example) but we know that those carny style angles are Vince's favorite.
2. Guys should be designated to a "brand" for a period of at least 6 months or so. If a top guy is injured on the raw or smackdown roster
3. Smackdown needs to stand for something different than raw. When Smackdown was doing better than raw they were pushing the Latino Steve Austin that Vince was never going to push on raw. If Smackdown is able to draw using workrate or something different than typical raw booking it should be awarded and not punished for it. Maybe having new agents would be a help.
Look in the mirror, friend.

Alexander "The Total Package" Rusev should be SmackDown!'s Roman, but with charisma and good mic skills, and not looking like a fucking goof.
That seems like a bad idea. People love the "indie" nature of NXT, even if it's not.
I think it just means it'll be the end of the current era of NXT, lots of call ups and hopefully more signings.

Don't know why they would if you can still view it on the Network
This is back a few months ago but when we were in one of our Guy Fieri phases there was a mashup of the opening to NGE and Guy Fieri that has seemingly disappeared off of youtube. If you search for it on youtube right now the right one isn't there, only a knockoff.
Adorable.
La Mascara continues to want a Mask vs Hair match with Rush. This isn't the first time someone's challenged Rush to a Mask vs Hair match that nothing came of, but a Mask vs Mask match did happen shortly before Sombra left. I wouldn't be surprised to see Rush joining his buddy.
RIP CMLL.

Triple H is tanner and wetter than ever before at Backlash '99, but he's still Jeff Jarrett tier.
I'm actually enjoying the psychology of this match, though. Triple H zeroing in on X-Pac's vulnerable neck. Mostly solid execution. Not bad. Maybe H will ascend to Shane Douglas' level after all. >_>

Corbin was in no state to get the strap anytime soon. Well, neither was Finn. So. . . .
You mean one puts up their career and the other puts up their hair/mask? It's happened. I couldn't give you any specific names though.
Has anyone ever done all three in one match? Like the Vince Russo of Lucha Libre?
Finn is/was fun to watch but not as fun as Sami, Owens, Neville, Dillinger, Corbin...
Really thinking about it, I kinda wished Owens never left NXT so soon. He could have stayed a few more months and had nice feuds with Joe and Finn and even Itami if he never got injured, Sami too... ah well.
Mexico's generally not a fan of triple threats.
Six Man Tags though.
Hair/Mask matches aren't usually tag matches. Only exceptions I can think of are Eddie Guerrero & Art Barr vs Santo & Octagon and the Brazos match.

Look at this fucking pro

Great stuff.
Love it.Look at this fucking pro

(But he's no Pee Wee.)
Everyone in the crowd jumps out of their seat when Ultimo gets the last pin on Villano. Nuts. Villano 5 is easily the best Villano. It is kind of funny to see him unmask like it's a big surprise when Villano 3 & 4 are in his corner and guess what? He looks like them.
Villano mask is so cool though. His is baby blue. If I were to get a Villano mask, I think I'd go with that color.
