It's time to shake things up around here.

Vince McMahon has uttered that famous line countless times over the course of his company's history and while some might be skeptical of what means, it could be something very good for the company going forward. In fact, it could be a huge moment for the company and even a fresh of breath air from how things have been lately

Think about it! Vince McMahon has uttered these words before and they were usually followed by genius ideas such as the superstar shakeup and the draft, which took The WWE is completely new directions! If nothing else, McMahon's announcement on Monday could be the biggest moment of the entire year, but what will it be?

As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments below and also be sure to let us know what you think Vince McMahon's announcement will be Monday Night! In the end, hopefully its something that moves the product forward and gets us as far away from the Baron Corbin authority era as soon as possible!


#5 To make Monday Night Raw two hours again!

Could Vince McMahon shorten Raw to only two hours?
Could Vince McMahon shorten Raw to only two hours?

This might be wishful thinking, but what if Vince McMahon came out, did his legendary stride to the ring and announced that Raw was going back to two hours again? Not only would it eliminate the time that Raw usually dedicates to their worst segments, it also could help make the show more bearable to fans that can't sit through the three hours.

Of course, WWE would lose a lot of advertising revenue in the process without the third hour, but maybe the company is at a point where they don't need that money anymore. One example of that is 1 billion dollar deal WWE just struck with Fox that will bring the blue brand to a blockbuster network.

Another way they could replace that revenue, at least in a temporary sense, is with the money they got from The Saudi Arabia deal to host Crown jewel that year. Either way, WWE doesn't necessarily need this third hour of revenue anymore, especially if ratings are so low.

#4 Handing over ownership of the company to Stephanie McMahon

Whether The WWE Universe wants to admit it or not, they see Vince McMahon as out of touch. In fact, fans have been saying this for so long that it has been turned into meme form, is a constant topic of conversation after a bad episode and even has countless blogs dedicated to the idea.

With that being said, what if Vince McMahon takes one last stride to the ring, bends under the ropes, thanks the crowd and steps down as chairman. McMahon could then give control of the company to Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, which fans have would happen for a long time and finally ride off into the sunset.

As hard as it is to comprehend a moment like this happening, McMahon's age, his lack of interesting booking and his decision to go forward with the Crown Jewel deal are all reasons why he might finally want to step way. In fact, McMahon has earned his retirement after everything he has done for The WWE and the moment would mark a big shift in programming.

#3 Seth Rollins is fired

Imagine this for a second.

Fans in the front rows are literally bowing to the media mogul in front of them and the camera cuts to several funny McMahon signs. He then steps into the ring, acknowledges the crowd and then calls Seth Rollins out for a discussion.

Rollins then comes out to talk to the boss and it is revealed that McMahon wasn't happy with his comments last week on Raw. By this point, the fans would be in disbelief and waiting on baited breath for what comes next. After playing up the moment for a bit and letting the fans chant no, Vince McMahon can fire Rollins for his criticism.

In the end, not only does this instantly create a dynamic similar to that of Vince McMahon and Stone Cold Steve Austin, but it also allows Rollins to go one on one with the biggest heel figure of all time. If nothing else, that would be a great way to establish Rollins as the biggest thing in WWE and also creates a storyline that would keep fans interested for quite some time.

WWE could also have Vince McMahon eventually align himself with Brock Lesnar, which would help set up The Universal title match at WrestleMania 35 and add in a bit of chaos to the title picture as well. What are your thoughts? Should WWE do an anti-authority storyline with Rollins and McMahon? Let us know in the comments below!

#2 The Superstar Shakeup

Another big way WWE can shake things up is with another superstar shakeup. Not only will this allow for WWE to introduce new storylines, fresh faces and interesting new rivalries, it also does so without the need for a whole show to be devoted to a draft. In fact, its so much faster and integrates the new superstars to the roster quickly

A shakeup episode would also be a huge ratings pop for WWE, especially since fans would be anxious to see who ends up where and who they feud with, and could also be a way for WWE to make some risky moves. For example, what if WWE moved Daniel Bryan to Raw and Brock Lesnar ended up on Smackown Live.

If nothing else, that would be a huge change for both brands and give each side a new top star to do something with. With that being said, however, it is only one example in a plethora of examples that WWE could explore. If nothing else, that will hopefully bring fans back into the fold and get them excited about future programming.

#1 Ending the brand split

Believe it or not, this would be a great way to boost ratings on both brands. In fact, between the plethora of new storylines that would be introduced and all the superstars that would now be appearing on both shows, it would really be a huge shakeup! Beyond that, it also offers the possibility of dream matches.

While some might still see the brand split as necessary, especially with the mistakes the company has made without it in the past, there are rumors that Fox sports didn't make that deal with WWE for only half of their roster. With that being said and many of WWE's best superstars still on Raw, it makes sense for the brand split to finally end.

In the end, it is probably not going to be a perfect solution and might even get some fans worried about uninspired storylines, but it might also be what finally opens the door to countless dream matches! If nothing else, that, along with WWE's great storytelling before their slump, should be a promising sign if the brand split does come to an end.
