5 things WWE SmackDown needs to fix

No depth

SmackDown held a battle royal recently that was loaded with lackluster talent.

Even though there is talent on the SmackDown roster, the show only got two picks to every three made by Raw because it is the shorter show. While that makes plenty of sense, it left the blue brand rather thin on quality talent.

With regards to the men’s singles, a 14-man battle royal on Tuesday had to include a number of tag teams. In the women’s division, Raw got every woman currently on the roster who’s ever held a main-roster title, and the three top tag teams right now – The Club, Enzo and Cass and New Day – also went to the red brand. The infusion of Rhyno and Shelton Benjamin will help, but SmackDown needs more quality talent.
