Who else is getting tired of wrestler's jumping from brand to brand?

I know some internet marks will be like: Oh it helps build superstars, or it helps build up feuds.

I can argue that it doesn't.

First off: It eliminates any idea of brand independence

I remember when Smackdown first came on superstars would cross brands to help Smackdown! gain viewers and become a legitimate WWE show. But after the Invasion storyline they had brand extension where each brand had it's own roster. Which was a brilliant idea, in my humble opinion.

During said brand extension you would see clear subdivisions on each roster, Raw had an undercard, midcard, and main event. and Smackdown! had an undercard, midcard, and main event.

Each show had it's own champions, and you would see good feuds for undercard, midcard and main event championships.

Second argument: The undercard becomes buried and the midcard becomes limited

Now the undercard isn't meant to steal the show, but when you have a thriving undercard, you feed the midcard which should be a revolving door of former main eventers and future main eventers, and when you have a thriving midcard your main event picture isn't so dim, you wouldn't see the same guys main event every PPV.

So one might think differently, but to me the most important element in maintaining a excellent show is having an undercard that will feed a midcard (which isn't a necessarily one direction stop, a midcard should be always changing with fresh faces and main eventers) which feeds a main event (which is also a revolving door)

Having superstars brand jump, means the undercard will be abolished, midcard will become the new undercard (which eliminates a revolving door scenario) and the main event will rarely change.

So those are my arguments on why brand jumping is bad for the WWE

now I will debunk the theories that say brand jumping is good

Theory #1: Without brand jumping the star power dilutes

Yeah you won't have big names on each show, but you have the time to build big names. 2 hours with a 40 man roster is a lot easier than 4 hours with an 80 man roster

Theory #2: Brand jumping helps hype feuds

No all it does is repeat what has already been said, rarely do you see new and fresh material from feuds that are given time from Raw and Smackdown!, if you have independent brands there will be more feuds, which in turn less filler when it comes time for a PPV.

Which lately every PPV has had atleast one filler match.

Theory #3: It helps build superstars

The easiest one to debunk, it reduces the midcard and destroys the undercard.

You want to know why people want to see their favorite wrestler's win the World Heavyweight or WWE Championship. It's because that the midcard titles mean nothing because it's not a revolving door anymore, and the reason the midcard is not a revolving door is brand jumping destroys the undercard, which limits the midcard.

There was a time when people would mark out for intercontinental championship matches and wins, now people barely react to world championship wins.

From now on out I will count weekly how big the roster is and how many superstars appear on Raw and Smackdown! compared to the size of the roster.
