I wouldn't do the Donald Trump RAW GM storyline, I would do the 15-man Elimination tag match and of course have RAW or Smackdown win depending on which brand you want to keep. Then afterwords I would bring in Donald Trump and have your owner offer him a general manger role and then have Donald to turn it down and say he is investing in ECW. Then you could bring it back as your own fed. But theres alot you could do with this storyline you could have Donald draw up a contract on his terms for the GM role. (After he signs and your owner signs, It turns out your owner sold him ECW.) you could also have someone else come in and play trumps role.

Vengeance is now fully up. I think it came out good. I also put some .COM updates up too.
Other WWE Notes:
Donald Trump has flown to J/o\E Studios, where Vince McMahon is meeting him. No one knows what this is about.
ECW Superstar Tyson Kidd suffered a sprained ankle on ECW last week, and will be out for a period of 4-6 weeks.
Massive layoffs are expected in the WWE this week.
Tommy Dreamer has signed a contract to return to his job as a road agent. Finlay and William Regal will be going to FCW to train younger talent.
It is likely that Hornswoggle will be let go, or possibly sent to SmackDown! to compete in the Cruiserweight Division.
Thoughts are, even though SmackDown! survived the match at Vengeance, some of their talent will be let go.
The only Superstars that are being considered 100% safe are the Champions, Triple H, Chris Jericho, Edge, and most likely Jeff Hardy. Even loyal veterans like Kane may be considered for termination. Of course, these are only speculations...
SummerSlam will be presented live from Jacksonville, Fl. at the end of the month.
Following that, Unforgiven in September. No Mercy in October. And, Halloween Havoc a couple weeks later...
The only PPV being cancelled due to the Revamping is ECW's December to Dismember(in December, of course). This was scheduled to be in New York City, right before the WWE Superstars left for the Christmas Bash: A Tribute to the Troops in Iraq.
Thoughts are, Goldust(currently working with younger talent in FCW) will come up to the main roster soon. Also, Chris Masters has officially re-signed with the WWE.

Insider Update:
According to creative sources:
"We are very excited for the coming months on Raw. Currently, the top main event talent consists of WWE Champion Randy Orton, CM Punk, Chris Jericho, and Triple H, with the fueds being Orton/Punk and Y2J/HHH. We intend on keeping the spotlight on these fueds through (and possibly culminating at..)Survivor Series. Currently, Orton and Y2J are the heels, and HHH and Punk are the babyfaces. However, in a slow, yet drastic, swap, we plan on bringing back the fun loving Jericho and making him the new babyface, while Triple H once again practices being one of the most hated heels in the industry, something neither man has done in quite a while. We are excited for this change and look forward to the possibility of Orton and Triple H working on the same team(Evolution reunion?)."

Insider Update:
According to creative sources:
"It appears that Edge will return to the World Title picture on SmackDown! after SummerSlam. Following this, the plan is to have him end his current fued with Jeff Hardy to begin a new program against the ECW Champion John Morrison. Likely leading to a Title unification match at either No Mercy or Survivor Series...
Also, in response to a very positive reaction to Chris Masters' return from both the crowd and locker room, the plan is to turn him into a babyface for the first time in his career.
Lastly, on Raw, expect a fourth member to be added to Legacy within the next month or so. Hint: He'll spit in your face if you don't respect the Legacy..."

After the Revamping, Elijah Burke was one of five wrestlers taken off TV and sent down to FCW. Due to the circumstances, these five wrestlers are considered free agents, although they do collect a paycheck from FCW.
We caught up with Elijah to discuss Eric Bischoff's proposal to join PTW, here's what he had to say:
"Well, it's given me something to think about, I didn't know what I was going to do at first. I was both devasted and glad when I was demoted. Devasted that I was demoted, glad that they decided they want to keep me around...
I've been told they want to bring me back on WWE TV soon, they just had nothing for me in the current transition, especially since Brian [Kendrick] was let go and we had just started teaming.
I have been thinking about Eric's offer. I know it's an honor to be on a small list of people he's spoken too. Sharing that honor with people like Shawn Michaels, Kevin Nash, and Booker T has really made me think about it... However, WWE contacted me the second that list leaked out, telling me that I could be brought back on TV real soon... We'll have to see how this plays out, but, I can promise you, either way, the Elijah Experience will be coming to a TV screen near you soon!"
Will Elijah go to PTW? Or, is he returning to WWE soon? Stay tuned to find out!

WWE.COM Update:
Three huge matches have been added to the SummerSlam card!
Jeff Hardy will go one-on-one with the Rated R Superstar Edge! After both of these superstars put eachother through a near-death, career-ending Street Fight at Vengeance, can they finally settle their differences at the Biggest Party of the Summer?
Matt Hardy will defend his United States Championship in a Triple Threat Match against Carlito, who screwed Hardy out of a chance at the WWE Champion just weeks ago, and The Miz, who has tried to use both Hardy and Carlito as stepping stones to get ahead in the WWE, in the past weeks.
And, R-Truth envokes his rematch clause to attempt to win back his X-Division Championship from the new Champion JP Deadly.

This coming week on WWE TV... (August Week 3) On Monday Night Raw, the proverbial 'eve' of SummerSlam will feature The Game Triple H taking on Christian with Triple H's SummerSlam oppenent Chris Jericho as the special guest referee.
Also, the tensions have been rising in the United States Championship scene as the Champion Matt Hardy will be defending the Title at SummerSlam against both The Miz and Carlito. But, on Raw, Hardy will go one-on-one with The Miz in non-title action! Will Carlito make his presence felt, and, will Goldust once again show "interest" in Matt Hardy?
In the main event, The Legacy(WWE Champion Randy Orton and Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Ted Dibiase) will take on the No.1 Contenders for the Tag Titles, Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne, and, Rey Mysterio(chosen by CM Punk as he is still not cleared to wrestle after a concussion he suffered at the hands of Randy Orton just weeks ago). Will Punk make an appearance days before his Title match? Will he be cleared to compete as promised at SummerSlam? We'll possibly fine out at Raw!
This coming Friday on SmackDown!, just days before SummerSlam, Jack Swagger has issued a challenge to the Intercontinental Champion Chris Masters after "being embarassed, and caught off guard" by him last week.
Also, in what's sure to be exciting, high-flying, death-defying, action, the Cruiserweight Championship will be defended in a one-fall-to-a-finish four-way match. The Champion Colin Delaney will defend the Title against Primo Colon, Santino Marella, and Gregory Helms!
Also, announced on WWE.COM this week, John Morrison will be defending his ECW Championship at SummerSlam, the question is, against who? So, General Manager Teddy Long has chosen two Superstars recently drafted from the land of Extreme, Kane and David Hart Smith, to do battle to determine a No.1 Contender for the Title.
Mark Henry will be defending his World Heavyweight Championship against both Shelton Benjamin and MVP at SummerSlam, but, tonight he goes one-on-one with the sole winner of the Survival of the Fittest match last month, MVP, in non-title action. Benjamin will also be in the arena, so, will we see a preview of things to come at SummerSlam?

Prime Time Wrestling has delayed it's television debut as they have been hosting shows along side Ohio Valley Wrestling and Ring Of Honor along the east coast.
Recently, Eric Bischoff has met with executives from ROH to discuss a business venture. As several wrestlers have signed deals with Bischoff, only a few have remained on tour consistently. Shawn Michaels and Booker T have both gone back to their homes in Texas to help manage their wrestling schools. Kevin Nash has remained on tour, but, has not been actively wrestling. Kurt Angle and AJ Styles have been actively wrestling, along with Rob Conway, Val Venis, Marcus Cor Von, Ken Kennedy, and Kevin Thorn.
No word on what this business venture may involve, but, several think ROH and PTW will have some kind of merger which could involve a pretty big TV deal, and, a definite threat to WWE Programming on J/o\E.

Insider Update:
Jeff Hardy does seem to have suffered some kind of injury to his midsection during SummerSlam, more information should be available later.
Tyson Kidd has recovered from his minor ankle injury suffer roughly 6 weeks ago and should be working a normal schedule on SmackDown! from now on.
The main event at Raw's Unforgiven will be a Scrambles Match for the WWE Title. The match will include 5 Superstars, Randy Orton obviously being one of the five. Other possibilities include CM Punk, Triple H, Carlito, Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio, Christian, and the Great Khali(who has been touring Europe in the recent weeks, but, will be returning regularly to Raw in the coming weeks).
No word on the plans to continue Triple H and Chris Jericho's current program.
SmackDown! will be sending a tag team to Unforgiven to challenge Priceless for the Tag Team Championships in an interpromotional match. Thoughts are the Hart Dynasty is the top choice, but, many are skepitcal as they as two of the top heel teams in the company.

This coming week on WWE TV (September Week 1)
In the fallout of SummerSlam, comes Monday Night Raw! Things will be exclusive Monday as we come out of one of the most controversial Pay Per Views in recent history, and are only 2 weeks away from the Raw-exclusive Pay Per View, Unforgiven!
The new United States Champion Carlito will be in the arena, and we will find out about his Title win, and, more importantly, his motives behind helping Orton retain his WWE Title. Is Carlito the newest member of the Legacy???
Speaking of the Legacy, Orton retained his Title while Priceless retained their's. Therefore, we will see a Legacy Victory Speech. But, with CM Punk, mad, and in the arena, how long will the celebration last???
Kofi Kingston & Evan Bourne will be in Tag Team action against the new team of Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson--the team that cost Kofi and Bourne the Titles.
Triple H and Chris Jericho will be on hand as well, it will be interesting to see if anything further happens between these two after Triple H decisively beat Jericho at SummerSlam...
Lastly, the man who cost Matt Hardy the United States Championship, Goldust, will take on the wildcard from the US Title match, The Miz! But, Matt Hardy will be in the arena, will he have anything to say to Goldust? And, will Goldust like it?
Days out of the Biggest Party of the Summer, SmackDown! explodes into action with a World Title announcement, regarding the upcoming SD! Pay Per View, No Mercy.
Also, The Rated R Superstar will host a Victory Celebration after he has seemingly ended the career of the Enigma Jeff Hardy at SummerSlam.
And, we have a new Cruiserweight Champion, The Hurricane! But, a man who supposedly has nothing to do with the masked hero, Gregory Helms, will be in one-on-one action against someone out to expose the Hurricane's real identity, Santino Marella! Will this match determine a Number One Contender? Is that possible???
Finally, after chaos ensued during the ECW Championship match at SummerSlam, we will be treated to a 3-on-2 handicapped match between the ECW Champion John Morrison teaming with his SummerSlam opponent Elijah Burke to take on Kane, and the Hart Dynasty, David Hart Smith, and the returning Tyson Kidd!
All this and much more this week on SmackDown!

Insider Info:
Creative staff met today to discuss future events and plan out tentative cards. They discussed plans for Survivor Series and beyond, as well as the possible winner of the Royal Rumble. However, the only things put on paper, and, still subject to change were plans for Unforgiven/No Mercy.
For No Mercy, it is certain the main event will be a Scrambles Match for the WWE Title... Randy Orton likely defending against CM Punk, Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio, and Christian. Plan B alternatives include Triple H, The Miz, Chavo Guerrero and Carlito.
Also, Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase will defend the Tag Titles interpromotionally against the newly former team of MVP and Shelton Benjamin.
Matches being considered for the PPV are: Matt Hardy vs Goldust. Kofi Kingston & Evan Bourne vs Kozlov & Ezekiel. And, a United States Championship Match.
As far as No Mercy goes, there is a strong possibility of a heel vs heel main event as Mark Henry may be defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Edge. Jeff Hardy has been mentioned as a guest referee, but, that all depends on the extent of his injuries.
Also, should MVP and Shelton win the Tag Team Titles, there would be a strong chance that the Hart Dynasty would be next in line for a shot.
If not, they will likely be placed into a 5-Man Challenge for the ECW Championship, the Champion John Morrison taking on Elijah Burke, Kane, David Hart Smith, and Tyson Kidd. This would most likely be a one-fall match.
Also, expect to see Chris Masters first big Intercontinental Title defense against Jack Swagger. Also, The Hurricane will likely defend the Cruiserweight Championship against Santino Marella, or, Colin Delaney. If Colin is chosen, there is a possibility, Helms would pull double-duty and face Santino in a match as well.
JP Deadly and R-Truth's program seems to be over, and, it is unclear if JP will start a new program before the PPV or not. If not, expect him to go another couple weeks without defending the Title, so, the 30-day time limit expires and he would likely start a fued against someone from Raw.
These plans are all very tentative and could change on the fly, but, they are something to consider...

Eric Bischoff's Prime Time Wrestling has gone under before it began, and will not be taking off anytime soon due to legality issues. All wrestlers have been released under free agency, though many have verbally agreed to re-sign if the opportunity should arise.
Florida Championship Wrestling(FCW), WWE's developmental territory has recently brought in several former WWE Superstars, including Big Daddy V, Muhammad Hassan, Khosrow Daivari, Jamie Noble, Paul London, Brian Kendrick, and newcomer out of New England, Miguel De La Cruz(has worked with JP Deadly in the past).
These new developmental deals join trainers Finlay, William Regal, Highlander Rory, Highlander Robbie, Al Snow, Road Warrior Animal, and Vader. Other former on-screen talent, currently working in the FCW Program: Dolph Ziggler, Paul Burchill, and Charlie Haas.
Also, sources report a new WWE contract has been signed, sealed, and delivered straight to the office of Vince McMahon with few-to-no people aware of who's name is on the dotted line. Due to the anonymity of this contract, we can assume it will be a straight to TV deal, and, more than likely a well-known name. One source reports it is a name said to be originally signed to a Prime Time Wrestling(PTW) deal, before that went under.
