5. New Tournaments

Following their recent successes, WWE has expressed an interest in broadcasting more tournament-style wrestling. Some would be regional bouts but other ideas include WWE vs. NXT, and a tag team tournament.

Televised regional tournaments would be a good way for WWE to scout talent, seeing which wrestlers can get crowd reactions and who feels comfortable working in front of cameras.

As for WWE vs. NXT, the tournament could be used to kick-start feuds for the developmental performers who are on the verge of being called up to the main roster. A Raw superstar might attack a rookie after suffering an embarrassing loss, or an NXT competitor could start bragging about getting the victory over a top wrestler. There are many possibilities to start new rivalries if the right participants are picked to compete.

A tag team tournament would boost a division that falls by the wayside on the main roster. WWE often recycles the same tag match over and over, a recent example being The Usos vs. The New Day. There isn't enough cool-down time between those matches to make us excited for the next one. A tournament would be a great way to showcase how talented the other teams in WWE are.
