To accurately predict the full rosters for both brands now would be a challenging, if not impossible task. With that said, some assumptions can be made that will help provide a clearer picture for what both shows will look like.

There will need to be a balance between the two shows so as to not have either of the side's decks stacked too high. While RAW will remain as the A-Show, this isn't to say that all the main players will be exclusive to Monday night. Each roster will likely feature an equal number main eventers, an equal number upper mid-carders, and so on and so forth.

Fans shouldn't expect a stacked roster that features John Cena, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, Bray Wyatt, and Dean Ambrose all on the same show. Instead, those six names are likely to be split evenly with John Cena and Roman Reigns captaining their respective shows. Because of its age, RAW will still be looked at as the "main stage" of WWE and the company's top prospects will likely find their way to Monday nights before too long.
