Looking at each roster, (don't have to do each star), how would you push the talent you have. Take into consideration that not everyone can go over and take in their entire body of work (ring work, selling, crispness, mic work, etc).
Sample subjects:
John Morrison
Danial Bryan
Jack Swagger
Kane
Wade Barrett/Corre
Etc.

Morrison- The guy's got amazing talent in the ring, so just having him put on these great matches is already getting him over. But for the storyline to get him his first title, going from right now...Either he wins at EC and beats Miz, or he manages to last to just him and Cena, and Cena wins. At WM, Morrison wins the MitB, and Miz just barely beats Cena, losing Alex Riley in the process. As Miz is celebrating, Morrison comes out, passing Cena on the way down the ramp. The match begins, and Cena comes out and attacks Morrison, costing Morrison his title opportunity. At Backlash, they have a 3-way Dance and Morrison wins the belt.
Daniel Bryan- In the summer, after floating in the mid card in almost a kind of obscurity (and after losing the IC belt), he makes a heel turn by attacking someone random (like Bourne or Tatsu). He cuts a promo where he talks about it being a dream of his to work for the WWE, but now that he's got here, he's been kept down so that he won't overshadow the top guys. Then have him start to attack guys in the main event, eventually getting a title shot. Doesn't need to win, but it'll establish him as a main eventer if he can pick up some big wins against established stars.

Alright, to be completely serious now.
DiBiase & Rhodes: Have one of them switch to the other's show (draft or otherwise), and have a one-upsmanship competition between the two (similar to the MVP-Matt Hardy feud a few years back). The only difference is that each competitor would get a point for a win, lose a point for a loss, and two points if they win a title match (including if they faced each other for a title opportunity). Its a bit gimmick-y and ridiculous, but hey, sometimes you need to have a classic challenge to revitalize good talent.
Henry: Feud with Khali. That's the only thing I can think of that will give Henry any credibility (if any remains).
Tatsu: Since he's still working on cutting promos, give him the silent warrior gimmick. He won't need to cut promos, and still get to dominate in the ring (remember, he does have one win at WM, even if it was a dark match). After that, team him up with either Bourne (when he returns) or Daniel Bryan in a friendly rivalry or something.

I'm not sold on John Morrison yet.
I like the way Wade's been pushed as the head of the Nexus. I think a feud between Punk and Barrett would've been a good one to see. In one fell swoop, you could push Barrett, and Slater/Gabriel as faces. keep the Corre, but Have the two groups slug it out. Maybe add Tarver to the mix. You don't really see many Face factions.
Danial Bryan - Stay the current course. Need to drop the belt (maybe at WM) or put him in the MitB match to start a feud. Keep him babyface, so a returning Skip Sheffield could play the part of heel here. Though a feud with JoMo over the US Title could help both of them drastically.
John Morrison: Upper Mid-Card. Heel feud with Danial Bryan means A) He can get screen time. B) He won't get completely buried. C) Bryan makes almost all of his opponents look good. Working with Bryan can help clean JoMo up in the ring, and the extra time can help Bryan's mic work out.

He's had an impressive set of matches up to this point, usually the match to watch night in and night out.

If he's booked in a bad feud, watch how fast he'd drop, like Kofi did last year after his hot Orton feud.

It's true that he got great crowd reaction from that...but the reason why it never went anywhere is because he was immediately buried and sent to SD (as punishment) because of Orton...

Heh, I know that. I think it's time we switch trains of thought here.
Who's next on the "how we think they should be pushed/booked" list...

Sin Cara: There are so many ways he can be pushed in the company. I see him being a dominant player in the midcard, since most of the younger talent is currently there. In regard to a plot, I can't really think of one. But think of the matches this guy can put on with the rest of the talent.
