10. Go Live
Unlike Raws live show, the action on Smackdown is three days old by the time it airs. The taped nature of the show often leads to not a lot of major developments taking place. Maybe this in part due to the nature of the internet Vince McMahon might still have flashbacks of Eric Bischoff reading spoilers of taped Raws in the 90s and a desire to not have a major angle revealed on the web on Tuesday night. Going live would help alleviate that concern and give Smackdown the same feel of unpredictability, a belief that anything can happen on a live program. Its also painfully obvious when you hear the canned crowd noise that youre not dealing with a live reaction. Unfortunately, given WWEs belt-tightening these days, doing live shows every Monday and Friday is not feasible. They tape Smackdown the night after Raw for a reason, and its dollars and cents. However, thats not to say that WWE couldnt decide to do a live special every once in a while. Maybe they spring for a live show if the occasion is right, or they work it out with Syfy to move Smackdown to live on Tuesday for a week.
