Even if Trish & Lita came back full time the Division would still be the same, and we would all complain on how WWE wasted their returns. WWE needs to fire the "TV" writers and let the bookers take over again. Back when Trish and Lita were winding down Finlay was in charge of the Diva's and they were still putting on some incredible matches

If I was booking for WWE right now I would push to give the Diva's division decent time on both Raw and Smackdown 10-15 minutes a show. If none of the women currently on the roster can work that pace they I would begin cutting out the dead weight and bring up the women from NXT who can actually wrestle (Paige/Del Rey). Plus I would try to bring back Ivory & Molly Holly to help put over the current women.
I would then sign Cheerleader Melissa, LuFisto, Jennifer Blake & Leah Von Dutch (winner of the Edge essay contest at Squared Circle Training in Toronto) and start centering the division around them & AJ/Kaitlyn/Natayla.
I would also push for WWE to bring in an intergender tag belt and use that division to build the midcard division at the same time building up the Women's.

I for one is super excited to see Bruno going into the Hall of Fame. If any single man ever deserved the Honor it is Bruno. When I was growing up in the early to mid 80's I use to sit and watch WWF programming with my Papa, who was a massive Bruno Sammartino fan dating back to Sammartino's days with Maple Leaf Wrestling in Toronto. Back then the "Living Legend" was the one guy I wanted to meet more then Hulk Hogan or Andre the Giant. I was also super pumped when I finally got to see Sammartino in action back at WrestleMania 2 in the battle royal.
I am also looking forward to the inevitable Bruno Sammartino DVD release that I am sure will have the greatest documentary the WWE has ever produced.
I would love to see Bruno return to commentary on the occasional Raw or Smackdown, plus just having Bruno show up from time to time to talk with the young talent in the WWE should only help the product get better from this point forward. If anyone knows what it takes to draw and emotionally connect with the fans it is the "Living Legend"

The whole 30 days things is sadly a thing of the past. That became apparent when Punk was hurt and had to miss the TLC PPV and not defend the belt in nearly two months, just so they could pad is stats before feeding him to the Rock.
I personally would love see the WWE bring that rule back and enforce it as most heel champions never seem to defend there titles, despite losing week in and week out to the main event faces the WWE is pushing down our throats.

Cena will still be dominating the product as both Raw and Smackdown are pulling TNA viewership numbers.
Hulk Hogan will be back in WWE after finally killing off TNA, he will be the GM of Raw and instantly turn heel to feud and eventually be fed to Cena
El Generico will have all his momentum killed off when the suddenly turn him heel and feed him to Cena
Antonio Cesaro and Kassius Ohno will be dominating an exciting Tag Team Division
The World Heavyweight title will be a thing of the past
The Divas Division will be on an upswing with Paige as a dominate Champion who is approaching the two year mark as Champion
CM Punk will be entering the Hall of Fame shortly after retiring
Jericho will be in the midst of farewell tour before finally retiring
Vickie Guererro will have retired and left the company
Micheal Cole will no longer be the "Voice of the WWE" as Josh Mathews & The Miz are the voices of Raw. Renee Paquette/Young will be the voice of Smackdown with a recently returned Shane McMahon
Smackdown will be known as the home of the Divas as it features 2-3 Divas matches per show
Sheamus, Randy Orton, Ryback & Alberto Del Rio will have left the company due to not receiving the spot light despite Cena only being a part timer
Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins will reform their tag team and feud with Cesaro/Ohno for the belts
Kane & Daniel Bryan will still be feuding as they are considered by many as having the best matches in the ring.
Big Show & Mark Henry will form a comedy tag team before both retire shortly after
Cena will be on pace to becoming a 30x WWE/World Champion as his average championship reign only last 30 days

Funny thing about Buffalo, and Hockey. About 60% of Sabre tickets are bought by Canadians, who go there to support their favorite teams (Leafs, Habs, Senators etc). Which is why Buffalo is mostly known as Canada's unofficial 8th NHL team. In all the times I have traveled to Buffalo I have never once heard the term "Hockey Heaven" in association to Buffalo. Not saying it isn't true, just have yet to run across it.
As for El Generico. I can see the WWE changing his gimmick (seeing as it a joke gimmick, the whole gimmick is based around the crowd being in on the fact he isn't mexican), but I do hope they keep him under a hood.

Jeff Hardy is better off in TNA than WWE. He will probably never even sniff a World/WWE title if he went back and TNA seems to give him anything he wants. Plus he is by far their top merchandise mover.

Personally I think Punk's long title run had two factors working for it.
1. It was a way for WWE to push back Rock/Cena II to WrestleMania, which as a match only makes sense if it is for the title, and having Cena as the challenger heading into Mania following his lackluster 2012 could make for some interesting promo's between the two men
and 2. Triple H's ego. For a while now Triple H has been reportedly pushing for longer Title reigns in the WWE, and I feel that one reason for that is to help protect his and Ric Flair's number of Championship reigns. One of the most prestigious numbers in wrestling right now is Ric Flair's 16 (or more depending on the source) runs as the World Heavyweight Champion.
As much as I love Edge his 10+ reigns as World/WWE champion is a bit of a complaint I have considering most of his reigns were extremely short. Same with the majority of John Cena & Triple H's reigns for that matter.
One of the worst things in my opinion to come out of the Attitude era was the constant title changes, at the time it made for interesting Television as both WWE & WCW would have title changes almost every month

If the NXT tournament was that last minute, how did they manage to spontaneously pack the NXT ring equipment when they came to Phoenix? Didn't you hear? The WWE chartered a military cargo jet so they could transport the NXT equipment at the last minute.... Seriously though, every year the "Dirt Sheets" always say Wrestlers A, B & C are going to be a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble, and 90% of the time none of them are in the match. WWE has been making a big deal about NXT for the last few months, as articles about NXT and NXT talents are always popping up on WWE.com so I really can't see that the WWE would "bump" a surprise and probably one off appearance instead of trying to use the Royal Rumble to bump someone from NXT to the main roster. Another factor to consider is that maybe Shelton & Carlito for that matter may not have been able to agree on terms for their possible returns. I would like to see both Carlito & Shelton get one more run with the WWE, but I wouldn't want to see that run come at the expense of the WWE building up fresh faces.

So proud of Trish getting the nod and is going into the WWE Hall of Fame. I've been following her career since her early days with Apocalypse Pro Wrestling in Toronto (alongside Sexton Hardcastle (Edge), Christian Cage & Rhyno. So far half of those names are in the Hall of Fame and I am sure Christian will be there one day (most likely as part of Edge & Christian being inducted as a team).
As for who should induct Trish, hands down it should be Lita. The two of them had one of the best rivalry's the Women's Division had ever seen, and of course once Lita gets the Hall of Fame nod, Trish should return the favor and induct Lita

Didn't Santino make his debut by winning the IC title in his very first match? While Bo Dallas doesn't have the "look" most WWE stars have I am willing to give him a shot based on his family background. Hopefully he can get over better than his brother did and not get the repackaged treatment in a few months.
I can't see Bo beating Barrett for the title, but having a young up and comer chasing the Champ should make for some interesting TV

Borne of course, but by having multiple Doinks accept the honor would make for some great Hall of Fame TV

Did anyone else notice how "unhappy" Bully Ray looked when he was hugging Brooke? That was not the face of man about to get happily married.

I would be completely happy with the Semi-Finals & Finals taking place on a PPV as long as the lead up to the PPV featured the opening round matches and maybe even "Qualifying Matches" which would give both Raw & Smackdown 8-16 guys entering to make it to the final four.
Then the winner could get a shot at the belt of his choice at Summerslam, similar to the Royal Rumble winner being able to pick what belt he wants to challenge for at WrestleMania

generic heel #54? really? lol theres been about 100x more xD I think that number is in reference to Cena's old #54 Jersey he use to wear. Getting back to the topic at hand. I think if Cena did or does turn heel. He would be probably be billed like the Rock was at the height of his heel run. Cena would probably be aligned with Vickie to help him get heat at first, more then likely as her hired enforcer to help her keep her job.
