That's pretty awesome. ECW needs something to freshen things up a bit, and outside of giving Elijah thirty minutes every week, a Raw relationship could be pretty neat.
Miz-n-Morrison vs. Londrick, a TAG TITLE UNIFICATION angle? (haha, no), DH Smith, Burchill, Murdoch... could be fun to see these guys on Tuesdays, if it doesn't just become "Snitsky's playground" or some shit.

They really need an injection of 'new' on Raw, but they spent so much time and effort on HHH, Cena and Orton the last two years, they've established absolutely nobody else. Kennedy seems to be getting over (jesus he sucks), and Jeff Hardy is obviously over, but neither one is main event at this point, although Hardy is much, much closer. Who else can they possibly elevate?

Raw was already pretty much recycled stuff, but now that Randy's hurt, Raw is in very deep doodoo. The draft is probably going to help a bit, and I guess they can probably coast to
Vengeance Night of Champions with a HHH-Cena program.
The Jericho-HBK saga is amazing, and it will hopefully keep building a while. I'd think maybe bring Batista over, turning him, and setting him up to face HHH in a title program could be a decent idea (from a business standpoint, at least), but he seems like the top choice for Edge's transitional period before there's a really big angle for him to work with.
The only thing about the draft is, there really aren't very many main event-caliber heels available with Orton being out and Edge being so entrenched on Smackdown. Turning Batista, HHH, or Cena is one of the options, but outside of that, it's either trotting out JBL's busted ass or pulling the trigger on MVP or Morrison.
I'd love a completely heel Jericho, fresh off of ****ing over HBK, challenging Cena or HHH for the title, but uh... not gonna happen, and even if it does, he'll just get squashed and buried in record time.
Maybe they'll trot out Kozlov for a traditional summertime face-vs-monster match at GAB?
