#1 Should: The recent WWE releases have left both rosters short

While WWE's roster is filled with exciting talents who are waiting to break out on RAW and SmackDown, the depth isn't quite there anymore. The top of the card is great on both shows, which is properly showcased on monthly pay-per-views. However, it is the undercard that is suffering at the moment.

Many notable names have been released by WWE in the past couple of months, leaving gaps on both shows. The women's division has suffered in particular recently, with a lack of purpose beyond the title scenes on RAW and SmackDown.

The blue brand has just seven active women at the moment, while WWE's female tag team division does not have more than two teams beyond the Champions, Natalya and Tamina. The company can solve this by calling up a bunch of names from NXT, but it will likely end in the same way.

Vince McMahon is interested in a Superstar, tries to find a place for them on RAW or SmackDown, then quickly loses interest. He needs to get to the root of the problem and fix the creative process behind the product. Simply managing one roster might be a better option, especially if WWE is planning more cuts.
