WWE has featured a plethora of changes to the programming in the past few years. Since Triple H's involvement as the Chief Content Officer, everything has been working well for the company. Their new Netflix deal is about to kick off in a couple of months and the excitement for that has been over the roof.
However, recent rumors of Netflix specifically wanting a few names on the red brand's roster have concerned fans. Reportedly, Netflix has declared that they want Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk on the RAW roster. While there hasn't been an official update yet, it seems like a few changes to the rosters of both brands might be seen very soon.
However, wrestling veteran Vince Russo feels the other way around. In a recent edition of The Coach and Bro Show on Backstage Pass, Russo addressed the same and stated that WWE should end the brand split for the first time since 2016 and combine the rosters, featuring the same stories on RAW and then continuing them on SmackDown.
"The reason why they went for the brand split was because the Attitude Era got so over, they wanted to run two shows…Now, I don’t understand it anymore because you’re gonna run into these problems. Have one roster. Now you’ll have access to all the stars and just have one continuous story from SmackDown to RAW," said Vince Russo. [30:29 onwards]
