With the rumors of ECW shutting down starting to spread throughout the internet, I thought it would be interesting to see where you guys think the ECW talent will be spread out between RAW and Smackdown! As I've said before, I'm 100% for the decision to pull the plug on ECW. I'd rather see most of those guys on the two brands that actually matter. Sure, ECW's done a good job of building up young stars, but isn't that was FCW is for?

Anyways, here is how I would spread the talent out. Sorry if I forget anybody:

RAW:

Shelton Benjamin
William Regal
Zach Ryder
Goldust
Paul Burchill
Katie Lea
Rosa Mendez
Tommy Dreamer

Smackdown!:

Yoshi Tatsu
Ezekiel Jackson
Vladimir Kozlov
That new tag team
Christian
The Hurricane
Lance Hoyt (I forgot what WWE's calling him)
Tyler Reks (jobber)

And thats all I can think of at the moment. What would you do?

The only superstar that is worthy mentioning from all that ECW roster is, CHRISTIAN.
The WWE can do just fine without them and I think that most of them will be released imo.

Christian to join forces with Edge.

Christan, Benjamin, Regal are really the only people that are really worth keeping on the main roster imo.

Smackdown > RAW

I don't know why people want Benjamin back on RAW, he will just get reburied there, he's been doing good on ECW but if that goes under then the next best thing would be SD.

RAW can have all the terrible guys so they can job to the links of Sheamus, Miz, Kofi and all those guys that have been stuck in the midcard while the talented guys, Regal, Christian, Ryder and any other new guys to debut go to Smackdown.

SD = Raw and ECW >>> Both.

And Shelton will get buried on either brand. It doesn't matter anymore because...everybody knows the story on him so I ain't gonna waste time on that. Just Raw would mean some new feuds and possibly with possible with people who have some skills instead of JoMo and R-Truth.

I would like to see Croft, Baretta, and Ryder go to SD and build as a tag team and Zach Ryder build as a mid carder.

I see wherever Goldust ends up just being comic relief, much like he was before going the the Dub.

Feud with Cody... that little backstage interaction they had when Cody was on RAW was intense. And sorry, Goldy in the ring >>> Cody.
Could be a nice personal feud, get Cody some legit heat, and more importantly, SOMETHING TO DO!!
