What do you guys think would you like to see Evan Borune (Matt Sydal) on Raw permentaly?? Discuss

Well I for one like it. I think the WWE is trying to imitate Bourne to be their AJ Styles for their company but that is just my opinion

i personnally dont like it. even though he wasnt in any big matches in ECW he still needed to stay there and get the feel of Main Eventing first. I thin that they brought Kofi over too fast as well. If he is to come he will get a quick IC reign and after he loses it he will probably be released after a few months of doing nothing. it happens to about everyone. by the way, what happened to Cryme Tyme?

Edit: funny thing, i went to wwe.com and saw that Cryme Tyme is wrestling tonight. pretty weird i think. Also i just remembered, ECW is taped with Raw, and they share wrestlers, thats why he's been on Raw the past few weeks

Hoping that they're simply giving him a little rub from Rey as he struggles with the might of Kane before having him step up for a bigger role on ECW with him getting more ring time...

Yeah, they drafted Kofi to Raw too early (or at least gave him the IC run, even though that was more a HBK/Y2J thing than anything else.), but this isn't a drafting. Now that the taping of ECW are paired with Raw, like with SD previously we'll prob see their guys popping up from time to time to balance the cards when the need is there (see Morrison being on SD a hell of a lot last year.... Hell they even had MVP on ECW!).

I don't think Bourne should go to Raw full time as yet. He needs some more time in ECW for awhile before hitting Raw full time. 1 he will just get lost in the mid card as Raw is stacked with stars. 2 I think he needs more ring time and more mic time to see if he has got the charisma and mic skills to get the fans behind him. Not just because he is a high flyer and does shooting star presses. He needs the whole package before he moves to Raw. IMO i think he is pretty awsome and will do well if he gets moved to either Raw or SD but its just a bit early yet.

I wouldn't want to see Bourne on Raw for a long time. I just hate his team with Rey Mysterio, and I don't want to see his character become like a lite/white version of Mysterio, it would ruin him. He's already getting a nice reaction from the crowd, but he should just develop his character more on ECW and have some decent feuds on his way to the top.

Yes, for a simple reason. I don't have the time nor do I ever feel like watching ECW. So if he moves to RAW then at least I'll be able to see him every week.

He is an amazing air-bourne wrestler but i feel his talents lye on SD! especially because they have more high flyers and he would be a good mid carder and could have some great matches with Shelton Benjamin as they are both amazing athletes.

I'd like to see him turn heel and feud with Rey, but it's a bit too early imo. He needs to work more on ecw before

Him and Rey both put on great matches but I don't think he should be moved to RAW just yet, it took CM Punk about a year to get their and it done him good to wait, if Bourne is moved over to early I have a feeling they will either just drop him from his push and he wont get TV time because they will be busier with all the other big RAW stuff. Maybe in a year he would be great on RAW because he would have had a perfect build up towards it.

I am both pro and con on this one. You have to take into consideration that he not only makes a good impact on RAW but when he is on ECW as well. ECW needs all it can get. You can definitely tell the place is basically turning into the televised developmental ground for WWE, and Bourne has a good place there. He puts on excellent matches with whoever he is up against, but he is very limited to his competition on ECW.

Moving him to RAW permanently would be good for RAW. Mysterio and Bourne make a awesome tag team and they work really well together, and RAW definitely needs more tag teams, but Bourne is a fantastic singles competitor. I think he is perfectly fine where he is as of now, working on both ECW and RAW isn't pressuring him into being on the bigger shows of WWE, but it also give him the chance to work with veterans as well as the newer talent being put on ECW.
