I would also keep the Women’s Tag titles and have them float among brands.

NOTE: Okay, I lied. I will still be doing predictions. But it will only be for WrestleMania and SummerSlam. Royal Rumble and Survivor Series will be without them. So, there is a reason why that this rebooking has been slow and not as eventful or the booking is getting kind of stagnant. I'm slightly burnt out, that and a combination of being busy with IRL stuff, and also other fantasy booking (TEW IX has been on my mind mostly), this rebooking has kind of taken a back seat in priority. So to rejuvenate my interest, Post-Mania will see a lot of changes on how I do things with the bookings. I will still incorporate descriptions for matches with big stories going into them, but other matches will just get a result. This saves time and also adds in emphasis for matches that are more important to the company going forward.
Along with that, on-screen we will see some notable changes. First, instead of completely doing away with the Junior Heavyweight Tag and Women's Tag titles, they will become floating titles that will be available on both Raw and SmackDown (NXT is a maybe, I want to keep NXT as separated from base WWE as possible but there might be some overlap in the future, just depends on how it's going), this will open up other opportunities instead of keeping them on one brand. Second, new GM's have been decided. Eric Bischoff would be beaten up by Monty Brown on the fallout show of No Way Out, which leads to a kayfabe indefinite suspension (Outside of kayfabe he's going to TNA just later than when he did), and in Bischoff's place, Stone Cold Steve Austin would once again take the helm. On the blue brand, Paul Heyman announced that he'll have a new person take his place following WrestleMania 21, and that was announced on the go-home show to be none other than The Rock.
This later half of the Ruthless Aggression era is gonna be nicknamed "The Rock and Austin Era" for the sake of convenience. Anyways, here's the final WrestleMania of the first half of the Ruthless Aggression Era and the NXT event to accompany it.

WrestleMania 21
Date: April 3rd, 2005
Brand: Dual-Branded
Location: Staples Center, Los Angeles, California
Attendance: 20,193
Money In The Bank Ladder Match: Edge def. AJ Styles, Shelton Benjamin, Robert Conway, Mark Jindrak, and Carlito Caribbean Cool
A match that was created and advised to be a collusion between both Eric Bischoff and Paul Heyman, giving 6 different superstars the opportunity to be shot to the top of the ladder, quite literally. A great match leads to Edge, who still has his sights on Christian Cage, taking the Briefcase for his own.
WWE Tag Team Championships: The Cabinet of Cool (Orlando Jordan and Aaron Aguliera) def. The Hooligans (Paul London and Brian "Spanky" Kendrick) (c)
Despite their recent defenses, The Hooligans were looked at by other teams on the Blue Brand to be weak links, but that doesn't stop them from giving it their all. On the other side of the coin, we have Carlito's Cabinet of Cool, 2 of his most notable bodyguards who always keep him protected. This match is fun, and while Kendrick and London give it their all to take them down, they were at a disadvantage in both strength and stature, leading to the Cabinet of Cool picking up the victory and the Tag Team titles.
WWE United States Championship: Muhammad Hassan def. Rene Dupree (c)
For months on SmackDown, there would be vignettes aired that talks about an Arab-American man, still dealing with the drawbacks of Post-9/11 worries and the discrimination it comes with, he wants to be judged primarily on his wrestling ability, not the fact he is Arab American. He would make his official debut in the company a month before, and would make a difference taking out any opponent he was given. He then works his way up to the US title picture, calling out the "French Goof" Rene Dupree out directly. This leads to a Mania match, and one that ends in a shocking upset as Hassan would pick up the victory to the boo's of the Los Angeles crowd.
WWE Junior Heavyweight Championship: Low Ki (c) def. Billy Kidman
The former WCW breakout is entering somewhat of a Twilight period in his career, slowing down and on SmackDown letting people know that he's going to hang up his boots very soon, and with that, he wants to win the Junior Heavyweight title before he does, and makes a challenge to the World Warrior and tries to dethrone him, but comes up short as the dominance and power overtake the true grit Kidman has. After the match, Low Ki remarks on the mic that he is running out of challengers, but as he does, he's jumped by former Tag partner Amazing Red and his new partner in crime, Gavin "Voltage" Spears. The new SmackDown GM The Rock comes out and makes the match official for the Fallout episode of SmackDown, Low Ki Vs Amazing Red Vs Gavin Spears in a Triple Threat for the Junior Heavyweight title.
World Tag Team Championships: The Heartthrobs (Antonio Santell and Romeo Roselli) (w/Maria Kanellis) def. William Regal and Yoshihiro Tajiri (c)
The team of flamboyant ladies men would gain a valet in Maria Kanellis, and with gaining her managerial services, they gain more drive to kick ass. Thus leading to them taking the Tag titles off the best friends of Regal and Tajiri.
WWE Intercontinental Championship: Sean O'Haire (c) def. Chris Masters
Chris Masters, known as "The Masterpiece" on commentary, made his debut in January of this year, catching many people's eye with his glorious theatrics and Greek God-like physique, win after win would stack up and allow him to get to the point of challenging IC Champion Sean O'Haire, but it's not enough as Sean would retain the championship. After the match, the lights would go out, and once they do, the person who arrives is a returning The Undertaker. He stares down the "Devil's Advocate" as O'Haire is shocked from his arrival.
WWE Women's World Championship: Lita def. Becky Knox (c)
Since working together, the story of Lita putting the OVW rookie under her wing, it lead to Becky gaining the Women's title, and with Lita picking up the Royal Rumble victory, the two have to face each other for the Women's title. A fun, back and forth contest leads to Lita defeating Becky for the title, and it ends with the two hugging in celebration for a hard fought match. After this, Kayo and Hiroko Suzuki would make a challenge to the Riot Girlz for their Women's Tag Team titles.
World Heavyweight Championship: Batista def. Randy Orton (c)
Former Renegades partners now turned opponents. Batista would be the runner up in the Royal Rumble, and then would win the #1 Contender's Elimination Chamber match in February, this lead to the two having a war of words in the weeks leading up to WrestleMania. The match would be good, and while Orton would try to retain the title, Batista would get the upper hand at the very end and defeat Orton, winning the World Heavyweight Championship.
WWE Championship; Travis Tomko Banned From Ringside: Christian Cage def. John Cena (c)
Our main event sees Christian Cage picking up a victory against the WWE Champion John Cena. The night would end with Christian celebrating his title win.
Off-Screen Title Changes
Kayo Suzuki and Hiroko Suzuki def. Riot Girlz (Becky Knox and Lita) for the World Women's Tag Team Championships (04/05)
Gavin "Voltage" Spears def. Low Ki and Amazing Red in a Triple Threat match for the Junior Heavyweight Championship. (04/08)
The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) def. Second-Gen (Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase Jr.) to be crowned the inaugural NXT Tag Team Championships. (04/14)

After winning the title on the fall out episode from WrestleMania 21, Gavin "Voltage" Spears claims he's going to be the next big thing in the world of professional wrestling, though GM The Rock wants him to put his money where his mouth is and instead of running his mouth, he should prove it in the ring, thus leading to this match being made, however, Spears proves the naysayers wrong and gets the victory in a fun opening contest.
Draft Advantage Match: AJ Styles (SmackDown) def. Chris Masters (Raw)
With the WWE draft coming on the next episode of Raw, both The Rock and Steve Austin worked together and created an inter-promotional contest to determine who will get the Draft advantage, this leads to "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles get a win over "The Masterpiece" Chris Masters.
WWE Tag Team Championships: The Cabinet of Cool (Orlando Jordan and Aaron Aguliera) (c) (w/Carlito Caribbean Cool) def. The Shane Twins (Michael and Todd Shane)

The leader of the Suzuki Clan faction picks up yet another win by making quick work of the young, inexperienced Joy Giovanni.
WWE United States Championship: Muhammad Hassan (c) def. Mark Jindrak

Eddie Guerrero made his return to WWE following an extended absence, and with it, he immediately hits the ground running aiming to gain the WWE Championship once again, however, Christian announces that anyone who wants to face him for the WWE title needs to beat him in a non-title contest first, and Eddie did just that. The Rock came out after the match and made it official for the next SmackDown.
