SD | HHH | Khali Over Bourne | Rookies | Hardy/Christian

When Smackdown moves to Syfy, do you think the ratings will go up, stay the same or go down?

The actual number will probably be higher due to the difference between broadcast ratings and cable ratings. As for the number of viewers, it will probably remain about the same. SyFy is more stable of a network than MyNetworkTV but it is still a cable network. WWE looks at the change as an upgrade as it will continue to strengthen their relationship with NBC Universal.

Do you see Triple H possibly returning at the end of the Team Cena vs. The Nexus match, and joining The Nexus?

Several readers have sent in their speculation regarding the return of Triple H. Some think he'll be revealed as the Raw General Manager while others think he'll be involved in The Nexus angle. To be honest, I have not heard anything new about Hunter's return other than will be delayed because of arm surgery. He was removed from an updated WWE SummerSlam poster which indicates me there are no current plans for him to be on the show. If I find out anything else, I'll be sure and post it.

Does WWE really have nobody else to join John Cena? Edge and Chris Jericho are no-brainers. John Morrison is an up and comer and R-Truth is very over, but what justification can they give for picking The Great Khali over Evan Bourne? Even Bret Hart makes more sense than Khali.

I also felt like Evan Bourne would fit on Team Cena than The Great Khali. I actually cringed when The Great Khali was announced as a member. We can only hope there are other plans for Evan Bourne as he is in the midst of the biggest push of his career. Hopefully his push is still ongoing and hasn't died already.

With the unexpected success of the NXT Season 1 rookies, aka the Nexus, what do you see as the future for the Season 2 rookies? I mean surely you can't have them make a group and copy Nexus. It would seem that the Nexus has really put the pressure on the Season 2 competitors.

I haven't heard of the plans but I would expect them to be different from Season 1. The creation of The Nexus was something the company tried and it worked. When it got over and boosted ratings, WWE went with it. I've been told since the beginning that Season 2 is not a talented as Season 1 but I still look for most everyone to find spots on either Raw or Smackdown.

Christian and Matt Hardy are two guys WWE fans seem to care about. WWE seems to acknowledge that, from what we saw in their build up to MITB. After the PPV, what are the plans for these two? Are they going to feud with each other? Is there any talk within the company of elevating one of them to main event status?

WWE teased dissension between Christian and Matt Hardy at last night's Smackdown taping. I don't want to write more to keep from spoiling the show, but a feud seems likely. However, I think both are reserved to the mid-card on Smackdown for now.
