So much for that. Guess this means Miz might actually retain then.

I predict the following 10 moves:

1) US Title and IC Title switch brands.
2) Orton to SD!
3) Punk to SD
4) Del Rio to Raw
5) Layla to Raw
6) Beth Phoenix to Raw
7) Jack Swagger to Raw
8) Daniel Bryan to SD!
9) Evan Bourne to SD!
10) Ted DiBiase to SD!
Well, I got 2 out of the 10 correct. But there's still a draft tomorrow for the undercard, so maybe I'll end up with a few more correct guesses.

I was surprised when they moved both Orton and Cena to SD! I figured they'd do it for at least 1 week to boost the ratings of SD!, to make the Draft seem like a big deal, and to keep Cena and Rock away from each other next week. But they put Cena back on Raw before the show ended.

Mark Henry is a heel again, and still no one cares.

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed R-Truth's promo. He looks to be a pretty good heel. I loved how he played into the WHAT? chants. He actually used them to get himself more heat with the crowd. Good move.

I pretty much called talking with a friend that if Cena went to SD as the first pick he'd be back on Raw by the end of the night. I didn't think there was any way for that to stick with Orton and Cena both on that show (it gets low ratings anyway and I don't even see that drastically bringing them back up), so there was definitely something else going on with that.

The Rey draft was surprising. His last run on Raw was terrible, so I'm not sure why they put him back. My only guess is that they wanted Sin Cara on SD!, but wanted to keep the two separated for a while.

I always felt Mysterio belonged on Smackdown, he just seems to fit in much better on that brand but I can't see the point in swapping them over. If anything it would be quite cool to see Sin Cara & Mysterio feuding as let's be honest Sin Cara hasn't really got much to do right now.

If they want to keep the two separate so they can build towards a WM match or some big program in the future, then it's a good move. Sin Cara has made several botches on Raw. Having him on SD! allows them to edit his botches out before they air. Rey is used to the live atmosphere by now. So they build Sin Cara up for a while and then put their 2 big masked names together in a feud. It makes sense. I just am surprised by the move since Rey's other Raw experience was so poor.

It will be interesting to see what Sin Cara does now that he's on Smackdown. Can he speak any English? I can't remember whether I read or not that he can but it will be a lot harder to establish him without any mic skills. That being said other wrestlers have gone over extremely well without utilizing the mic so I guess it's just a case of waiting to see how it plays out. I wouldn't mind seeing Sin Cara Vs. Kofi Kingston at some point.

I think I read that WWE wanted him to learn English, but I don't think he's ever had any mic time in WWE so I don't know. I did find it funny that he was drafted to SD! since it's never been established what brand he's on. He's been on both Raw and SD! each week since his debut, pretty much. Similar to Del Rio.

Wow Truth really stepped up from his terrible promo with Morrison the week earlier. I guess since Rocky came back and is saying ass that everyone is throwing out mild curses ("you're pissing me off") and also a lot of close ups on the blood of Cole. Interesting.

The IWC really seems to hate Rey Mysterio. I'd be willing to give the feud a try as long as it's short.

I was just looking at the Raw roster and the only other face that is WWE title worthy is Big Show and he is tag champ.

I wonder what this means for Del Rio's big push. Obviously, they still see something in him since they've moved him to the Raw brand. But does anyone see him as WWE Champion anytime soon? When Miz is the far better heel and John Cena is on the same brand?

What I think would be interesting, and this is just a pipe dream, is for Miz to retain the WWE Title at Extreme Rules and have Del Rio win the World Title. I don't think Del Rio is World Title worthy at this point, but it sets up the next part of my plan. We'd then have the WWE and World Titles on Raw and the US and IC Titles on SD! WWE could then unify the belts and have the Champions be on all brands. It's time.

But the most likely situation is that Christian wins the World Title (which I am in favor of) but quickly drops it to Randy Orton. WWE books an impromptu US Title match at Extreme Rules and Sheamus loses the US Title to Kofi. Thus keeping the four belts on the 2 brands.

ADR's move to Raw has me thinking that Miz will be dropping the title to Cena soon, possibly at ER or the following PPV. At this point, the only I'm guessing they feel the best way to get ADR over is to put him in a program with Cena. Wade Barrett was arguably the most over heel last year during the height of the Nexus Angle, so my guess is they'll see if lightning can strike twice.

I don't think the titles are getting unified yet. At most, the IC/US titles might, but not the World Championships. For something that big, I think it would be best to save it for a Mania match. No instead I think like you said, Kofi will face Sheamus at ER and bring the US Title to Raw. Kane and Big Show will eventually lose their titles to....some team whenever.

I can see Christian winning at ER and then briefly feuding with Mark Henry, because you know they're going to give him another Heel!Main Event push until finally dropping the title to Sheamus or Wade Barrett. From there, Orton will pick it up.

Just my 2 cents. :P
