Right now HBK, HHH, Rey, Edge, Taker are all out with injuries. They all will be back before 2008, and will most likely (knock on wood) be healthy throughout 2008 since the injury bug hit them now.
There roster will be stacked in 2008, just take a look.
Veterans - HHH, HBK, Edge, Taker, Booker, Jericho (he will be back)
Possible Main Eventers - Cena, Lashley, Orton, Kennedy, Batista, Rey, Matt Hardy
Mid Carders - Umaga, Jeff Hardy, MVP, Nitro, Flair, Kane, Finlay
Up and Comers ready for a big push - CM Punk, Carlito, Cor Von, Elijah Burke, Benjarmin, Haas, Masters, Kenny
Monsters: Khali, Snitsky, Viscera, Mark Henry
Young Guns: Cody, Harry Smith, TJ Wilson, Teddy Hart, Mr. Perfect's son, Dibase's son
WWE might Sign by 2008: RVD, Scott Hall
I know they are screwed right now with the injuries and Benoit situation but they will have a stacked roster, and if healthy, 2008 could be the year for WWE that can put them back on the next level like 2001 - 2002. Wrestlemania 24 will be outdoors in Orlando, Flordia, this will get some good publicity for them. The only problem will be how they will book all these guys properly.
Your thoughts ? ? ? ? ? ?

Woah, when you put it like that, it seems the WWE have a bright future ahead of them. Roll on 2008.

Great post! This brings up a great point. WWE has a HUGE variety of superstars and, when they come back from injuries/get pushed up to main event level (such as Cor Von, Burke, and Masters)/when they come up from OVW (DiBase's son and Mr. Perfect's son), WWE would be doing good!

By 2008 Vince will be on screen doing an angle where he screwed his daughter, his son taped it, linda sold it and kane was the love child or something stupid.

Veterans - HHH, HBK, Edge, Taker, Booker, Jericho (he will be back)
Not sure if Y2J will be back. These guys won't all stay healthy anyway, they are aging
Possible Main Eventers - Cena, Lashley, Orton, Kennedy, Batista, Rey, Matt Hardy
Besides Rey, all these guys are healthy now, and the WWE sucks
Mid Carders - Umaga, Jeff Hardy, MVP, Nitro, Flair, Kane, Finlay See above
Up and Comers ready for a big push - CM Punk, Carlito, Cor Von, Elijah Burke, Benjarmin, Haas, Masters, Kenny
Punk won't go much further than he already is. Carlito will never be big. Cor Von could be in trouble after last night. Burke has potential but I don't think they will ever fully push him. Shelton had his chance a couple years ago. Haas will never have a shot. Masters looks to be a mid-carder forever. Kenny is young but hasn't done anything lately.
Monsters: Khali, Snitsky, Viscera, Mark Henry
sucks, sucks, sucks, sucks
Young Guns: Cody, Harry Smith, TJ Wilson, Teddy Hart, Mr. Perfect's son, Dibase's son
Odds are that either 0 or 1 of these guys will make an actual impact next year.
WWE might Sign by 2008: RVD, Scott Hall
No chance.
Overall, the WWE won't be good next year. You basically just named the current roster with some hope of optimism. A couple of big stars will leave next year to follow the usual trend. Some guys will get injured, and others will be buried. 2008 will be just as bad as this year, probably even worse.

Are you serious, man? 2008 won't be any different than 2007... Injuries always happen... Do you think the roster's actually 100% injury prone? Every year, superstars gets held down with an injury... Although, some of those guys will be back... Others will be heading on the DL list...

It seems like every year someone says this, and somehow makes it make sense and then WWE always screws it up entirely.
Based on WWE's booking trends and recent quality of product, they'll continue to fail.
