2020 brings 20/20 vision. The McMahon Family stood in the ring late 2019 and said there was about to be REAL change for the company. Beginning at the new year, the rosters and everything would be completely reset. Dave Meltzer reported this was likely due to pressure from the networks for fresh stories due to significant rating droppings.
It's January 1, 2020. A new look for Raw and SmackDown as they gear up for the Road to WrestleMania. Was this a good time? Who can guess other than what the rosters appear to be.

For this BTB, I'm doing "writer contracts." My writer contract through WrestleMania is Monday Night Raw, so that will be the primary focus of this project.
I'll help keep tabs on other products but that main focus might shift during this BTB. Doing this to really zero in on the product and to not get burnt out with 3 different programs to write a week.

SmackDown Notes
SmackDown began the "New Era" of WWE on January 3, 2020. Here are some key notes to understand:
- WWE Champion Brock Lesnar and Universal Champion Bray Wyatt came face-to-face, understanding that the blue brand now has BOTH world champions.
- The same happened with both Raw and SmackDown Tag Team Champions, The Viking Raiders and The New Day. They've already settled to declare an undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions in 2 weeks in a ladder match on a SmackDown episode.
- Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, Braun Strowman, and Drew McIntyre are among those SmackDown superstars to declare for the Royal Rumble Match later this month.
- The two highest main events were Roman Reigns defeating King Corbin, while Seth Rollins and AJ Styles teamed up in a losing effort to Braun Strowman and Drew McIntyre.
