What is the difference between Raw and Smackdown in WWE?
They are two different shows. Since the 2016 Draft for the most recent attempt at the brand extension, Raw and Smackdown have had their own unique roster. Both shows now air live but the main differences between the two shows include:Ropes of the ring. The ropes are red on Raw and blue on Smackdown.Different Rosters. Superstars such as Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar and Sasha Banks can only be seen on Raw while other superstars like John Cena, Dean Ambrose and Randy Orton are exclusive to Smackdown. This is the idea of the Brand Extension, but we all know it won't stop Superstars from coming on the opposite show from time to time (As we have seen with Randy Orton being on Raw and Brock Lesnar showing up on Smackdown recently)The people in charge. Raw is run by Commissioner Stephanie McMahon and General Manager Mick Foley whereas Smackdown’s Commissioner is Shane McMahon with Daniel Bryan performing the role of the general manager.Different Championships. The Intercontinental Championship and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship are on the Smackdown brand due to the current titleholders, Dean Ambrose and The Miz respectively, being drafted to the show. Raw has the WWE Women’s Championship, the WWE Universal Championship, the WWE Tag Team championships and the United States championship. It is likely that once the new Cruiserweight division begins then there will be a WWE Cruiserweight Championship.Length of the shows. Raw is a three hour show, whIle Smackdown is on the air for two hours.Different announce teams. The announce team on Raw consists of Michael Cole, Corey Graves and Byron Saxton whereas their Smackdown counterparts are Mauro Ranallo, JBL and David Otunga.They air on different days. This is obvious, Raw airs on Monday while Smackdown airs on Tuesday.These are just a few of the of the main differences between Raw and Smackdown. They are not the only differences, as you will see when you closely analyze the two shows but they're just a few off the top of my head :)
Anyone seen WWE (SmackDown) live?
First off, Smackdown is the better experience between the two brands. For some reason it seems to involve the crowd more. The event will last about three hours, unless there is a pre-show. In which case, it could last upwards to four and a half hours but most likely three and a half hours. When I went to Smackdown, they had Velocity before the main show so it went on for four and a half hours; but, I believe they got rid of Velocity and Heat. There are usually about 6 to 8 fights, the same as is normally on TV plus a main event that is not shown on television (when I saw Smackdown live, the un-aired main event was Undertaker vs. JBL and his Cabinet in a casket match). It is definitely worth the money, even the middle tickets are a great buy (should be about $45-$50(?))
