I thought I saw a rumour Foley is scheduled for surgery and will be written off soon. No word on who would replace him. Any guesses?

Ahh I thought I heard this the other day too, he's gotta have a hip replacement.. I don't have any guesses.. I was just going to say Steph would take over in the mean time.. but who knows they could do a lot with the GM position if they really want to get creative.

Let Paul Heyman do it.
Dear Jesus No!!!
Yeah...I'm sure The New Day, Rich Swann, R-Truth, Cedric Alexander Titus O'Neil,
Darren Young, Alicia Fox and Sasha Banks would all be really happy about that.

And speaking of...My vote for New RAW GM would go to...

$a$ha Bank$...The Legit Bo$$

My Reasons:
~ It was on my Top 15 WWE Creative Choices I'd Like To See In 2017 List....
(You guys should check that thread out if you haven't...I've been told its a good read)
~ It would allow Sasha to play up the "Legit Boss" gimmick and develop her character
and range as a performer...
~ It could be a way for Sasha to turn heel in the future...either by aligning with Stephanie
or simply using her power to torment the current RAW Women's Champion (Which I'm
guessing will eventually be Bayley) or simply to get "revenge" on my bae Charlotte...
~ Even as a face it would work as Sasha is incredibly popular and would be a great
nemesis for Stephanie...who couldn't intimidate Sasha like the male performers as Sasha
could slap her back...or even worse...a backstabber/Bank Statement combo...
~ It would allow Sasha to recover from any nagging injuries while still being on TV...
And because...

I'm serious Snake...I can't stand Heyman and his fanboys...
Hell...I'd rather see JBL as RAW GM than Heyman.
Ya know, they need more manager people in wrestling again. I did enjoy when they had more.
It depends...I mean...for someone like Braun Strowman...yeah...I could see that...
but...I think most actual wrestlers need to develop all their skills and having a
manager cut their promos...to me...it just seems like the WWE is hiding that
performers inability to work the mic.

Now...I will admit there is one combination I'd love/hate to see in the WWE...
And that would be a Heel Roman Reigns managed by Paul Heyman.

That is a combination that I would hate with every fiber of my being...but
you know it would be pure magic to watch.

Also bring back Jim Cornette and have him manage Cesaro...

:p

Teddy Long, playa.

Tag team matches for days. Or 1-on-1 wit da Undertaker. :ambrose4:

In all seriousness, Stephanie might take that role, too. Which sucks.

*deep breath*...

Honestly, I'm... sorta... okay with Stephanie. Seriously, what's the point of having a commisioner and GM?
And anything to avoid any "Who's the new GM going to be!?!?" segments is ALWAYS a plus.

Speaking of plusses, less of Stephanie. So I say the whole roster can all be GM's, and they can divide their authority evenly. One week it's Darren Young, next week it's Roman Reigns, and the circle goes on until it's Stephanie's turn sometime in 2020 as she's opening up Raw on Destination America after not being seen in 3 years

Having second person SHOULD mean less Stephanie. I know some people here like her character and what she does but I don't. And not even in a "heel dislike". Like a genuine dislike for her on the product. (not her as a person but her character and how she presents herself.... bleh)

Apparently they're teasing a Sasha/Stephanie feud going into WM. Sounds like a really good way to get Sasha over in theory, but... I doubt just kayfabe beating up Stephanie is satisfying enough. Go. Away.

Maybe I'm wrong on that one and people will eat it up. I hope so. :)
