Hey guys, listen to this:
WWE wrestlers are more willing to work on Smackdown rather than RAW, which wasn't the case in the past. Mid and undercard wrestlers prefer Smackdown because they feel they would have a better opportunity of moving up in the company.
The backstage feeling is that RAW lead writer Brian Gewirtz is primarily focused of the main even wrestlers and he has failed to create new stars since signing with the company.

Does not surprise me a bit.Theres alot of BackStage Politics on Raw(HHH,HBK,JBL).And plus the head writer of Raw has said he is not interested in creating new stars.Instead we get the same boring main events.
SD! is laid back.Plus there is veterans there who are not selfish and willing to teach the younger guys and make them look good.Im talking about The UnderTaker,Edge,Rey Mysterio,Kane,Mick Foley,Finlay.
SD! is the promise land for the younger guys.Raw is where they go to be buried.Look at how many people came from SD! and got buried
1.)Carlito
2.)Brian Kendrick and Paul London
3.)Jillian Hall
4.)Mr.Kennedy
5.)Paul Burchill
6.)Charlie Haas
7.)Shelton Benjamin
8.)Super Crazy
now look at how many came from SD! and didnt get buried
1.)John Cena
2.)Randy Orton
Wow.Now you know why everyone wants to go to SD!Guys become stars because they have an equal oppurtunity and dont have to lay down to HHH,HBK or JBL!

Well just so you know:
Booker T. said that the reason he liked SD! over RAW was simple:
Because on SD!, it was all about opportunity, but on RAW, it was all about politics and of course Triple H.
Now, for thos of you that don't know this, Paul Heyman said during his shoot promo on ECW One Night Stand I, that the reason why JBL was the WWE Heavyweight Champion on SD! for a year was very simple:
Because Triple H didn't want to work Tuesday, in other words, he didn't want to work on SD!
Now as far as Kurt Angle is concerned, he said that the reason that he went to SD! and not HBK is very simple:
The same reason, which is....he didn't want to go to SD!
and as for Bobby Lashley, when he went to RAW, it wasn't all that good either.

HBK was not very smart.He could have went to SmackDown and Been World HeavyWeight Champion.Thats was a Guarntee.He would been World Champ and been the top guy,he would be on top of the World.
But he decided to stay on Raw.And become a Mid Carder.Mark my words,he will NEVER EVER EVER EVER become WWE Champion on Raw.SmackDown could have been his shows,the ratings could have changed for SD!.Good looking out for the WWE HBK!(Being Sarcastic)

Man, these writers really suck....it almost makes me want to start writing out storylines and matches for my own version of WWE using their superstars...just for fun. Is the WWE really this lost now or is it just b/c they don't care b/c their still making money? I think it's a combination of both, but when superstars would prefer to work on your "B" Show rather than your "A" show it shows that you are doing something wrong. The RAW lead writer doesn't want to create new stars, the Smackdown lead writer is a racist (Michael Hayes incident w/Henry)...sad.

Hi Bubba here, you got to be new all the time, you go stale and folks lose intrest. Kinda like RAW in a way. Smackdown is a good spot to show off your talents.

I agree with Bubba.Raw is the Flagship and Live and everything seems to go faster.On SD! it seems the matches are a little more longer and the guys and girls get to show how good they are.Maybe thats why to the guys like going to SD.

Well take a look @ Shelton Benjamin, he went from a 2x SD! World Tag Team Champion to going on RAW def. Triple H 3 times, via pinfall, countout and a Disqualification.
and he also went on to become a 3x WWE I-C Heavyweight Champion, but he also got buried and when The World's Greatest Tag Team reunited on RAW, they got buried.
and so, Shelton Benjamin went to ECW and Charlie Haas was still stuck on RAW with a goofy mask gimmick.
I would LOVE to see Shelton head back home to SD! and win not only the U.S. Heavyweight Championship, but also, win the prestigious SD! World Heavyweight Championship.

Hopefully this Feud between Shelton and Kofi will do something for him.I dont expect him to leave ECW this year thought.I expect ECW to loose CM Punk,John Morrison,and The Miz.
