This might surely be cute. I see some scary issues though depending on how the system would work.
Guilds might just kick out players with weaker rosters.
Guilds with some inactive members or incomplete guilds may suffer.
The officers or leaders of each guild could be required to do all the timing and coordinating.

And then, what about the reward tiers?
If my rewards are matched with my guild, I'm forced into the most powerful guild I can find and my roster won't matter - I'm just one in fifty after all. Feels like a newbie on a heroic raid guild.
If they're tied to my personal score and rewarding my roster... that would be more in-guild competition. Guildies have always been fighting each other over the better raid reward tiers. I wouldn't want to compete with an opposing guild and my own guild mates all at once. If it's GvG, I want them to be my allies and co-workers.

Guilds in this game are just a way to set another 50 person leaderboard.
GvG will do the same most likely. You will be battling against other guild and your guild for better rewards.

Mostly this. There is more cooperation on most Arena leaderboards then on Guilds. Guilds are absolutely just another leaderboard with each person fighting for top spot.

Until the raids look more like a cooperative effort, and guilds actually have to WORK TOGETHER. Then i find the idea of GvG ridiculous, there is no guild, really, so why even discuss something like GvG.

Further - the idea in general could work eventually, SO LONG as they don't lock the next level of gear advancement behind it. That really has ruined many a game. Lock a toon, sure, no problem, but not gear....
