WWE's 10 Best Accomplishments Since The Brand Split

Biggest one in my book overall?

SmackDown's Ratings

"According to WWE, SmackDown averaged a 1.90 rating in the fourth quarter of 2016, a 17 percent jump from the fourth quarter of 2015.

You can attribute the incredible improvement in SmackDown to a number of factors, including better booking, more entertaining storylines, the move to a live format and stellar improvements from many of the show's top stars. Regardless of exactly why more viewers are tuning in, what matters most is that significantly more fans are watching the blue brand consistently.

And that's something not many saw coming after the draft."

The social media following would have happened regardless. The talent in NXT does not have anything to do with the brand split. Goldberg... GOLDBERG!? No. I think the women main eventing is a big deal as well but I still say SmackDown's ratings is the biggest accomplishment overall.

Biggest accomplishment since the brand split: Making SmackDown great again, as well as solidifying it as the "A" show.

SDLive! I always prefered SmackDown to Raw, even in the Ruthless Aggression Era.

It sucked they turned it into a Raw Recap Show with edited crowd reactions and meh matches.

Glad its back to its former glory!

Smackdown is def the highlight. The stories, feuds, and overall match quality are much better. And, the show is only 2 hours which makes things very to the point and never too drug out.

You have bray, Orton, AJ, dean, Corbin, miz, and Cena leading the smackdown pack. And look at how much their ratings have increased. Not only are stars like bray, dean, and AJ benefiting from it, but they're also getting more ratings because the quality of the product is much better.

Saving The Miz's career.

Briefly breathing new life into Dolph Ziggler.

Turning Baron Corbin and Braun Strowman into legit potential Main Eventers.

And just in general the SmackDown Main Event scene.

Lol Dolphs career is failing harder than ever right now though. His heel turn has been terrible.

Lol Dolphs career is failing harder than ever right now though. His heel turn has been terrible.

Which is why I said briefly, I was talking about his face run on SmackDown where he produced some good matches, promos, and feuds with Miz, Ambrose and Styles. His heel turn has killed him though. He went from losing to the Main Eventers as a babyface too losing to jobbers as a heel.
