What shows are you watching? I've seen no drawn out feuds the past two or three years, sure there have been rematches, but you do that at any wrestling tv show. it's TV.

I'd rather watch Bryan/Barrett's of WWE than see anything from the Zack Ryders/Yoshi Tatsu's of WWE.

A brand split isn't going to automatically make stars, besides Cena, what star has Smackdown! made who wasn't already an established guy somewhere else?

How "established" are we talking? Smackdown may not have made any stars like Cena but Smackdown gave failing Main Eventers a place and restarted a lot of careers. Big Show, Edge, Sheamus, Mark Henry, Christian, Punk, Orton, Batista, Rey Mysterio, Kurt Angle, Booker T, ect all used Smackdown to basically save their career. It didn't make them, like it did Cena, but it played an important role in all of those people becoming main event stars.

Yes, all those names mentioned were already well established, if it's just a place to re-establish guys then it doesn't need to be brand exclusive does it? Again besides Cena what brand exclusive star did it make? Everyone so-called call up from Kennedy to MVP were pretty much just midcard guys who kept midcard positions throughout their run. Smackdown! doesn't need to be exclusive, that ship sailed along time ago, and that ship hit an iceberg in 05 and thankfully was abandoned a few years ago, All it needs is it's go-home show epicness PPV time

Batista, Edge, and Rey's careers were saved by SD? News to me.

I would say they saved SD!
