2018 Superstar Shakeup predictions

[Silkk]

You don't think the crowd is gonna rebel if Bryan gets pushed to the back of the line behind Roman, Brock, Braun, and Lashley? On Smackdown he at least has a realistic chance of being a top guy.

You can say Vince doesn't give a fukk but it's not like Bryan hasn't derailed their plans before.

The crowds have been rebelling for the past two years though fam

Yeah. You don't think it's gonna be worse when Roman is still hogging title shots and main events while Bryan is in midcard purgatory like Finn Balor?

Worse how?

What can be worse than the reaction he got after beating Taker at WM. They.... don't...... give a fukk

 

[AquaCityBoy]

People got over the Taker shyt pretty fast. The worst reaction was the night after Mania.

Not the same thing as sticking Bryan in the midcard for a year plus while Roman is in the main event.

If Miz stays on Raw, that feud would quell the reactions for a few months, but after that their shyt is getting hijacked again.

On Smackdown they'd have to choose between pushing AJ as top face or Bryan, and fans would be ok with either one. That's not how things would work if they had to choose between Bryan and Roman.

 

[cartierhoe]

Yeah Bryan on Raw would create a shyt ton of problems for WWE, they don’t want that crowd rebellion when they realize Bryan ain’t involved in the main event

Safer for them to keep him on SD

Speaking from a kayfabe perspective:

Paige just got the job and judging from the promos she’s gonna be the one handling the shakeup on the SmackDown side.

If she trades Bryan/Nakamura/Styles, Puffy needs to bush her with the quickness. She needs to find a way to acquire a Seth Rollins or a Finn Balor without giving up those three. Like say she wants to trade for the IC title and Seth... meaning she has to give up Jinder. We all know damn well that’s lopsided as all hell.... throw in Randy Orton like the Knicks threw in JR Smith in the Iman Shumpert trade

Ain't no trades nikka, this is random lottery ball fukkery

With the RAW side picking out of an actual lottery machine and SmackDown having to pick straws with Andre the Giant Battle Royal participants

He's more over than all of them/he earned his spot. I hope Vince learns from last time

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

Feed Bryan to Reigns that will get Roman over

 

[Dreamzeedream]

Feed Bryan to Reigns again that will get Roman over

Fixed

Still don't have full predictions but I think Absolution and Riott Squad are all getting broken up. With Ruby and Mandy getting singles pushes afterwards.

 

[InstantKlassik]

I wonder if they'll address the commentating. It's overkill having Graves on both shows. I wish Mauro would go back to Smackdown.

They should call up Nigel to take his spot on one of the shows. Or even Vic Joseph; that dude kills it on 205.

Mauro is probably much happier on NXT.

Based off what happened on Raw, I can see Braun going to Smackdown. I think they want to put the world title on him at some point this year and how many times can he possibly feud with Roman and/or on Raw? A move to Smackdown would be a nice change of scenery.

I also can see Jeff Hardy going to Smackdown. Based off Monday night, he's not going to be a part of the Woken stuff and since that's the case I don't see them keeping him on the same brand with Matt.

I can see Bliss going back to Smackdown and Charlotte going back to Raw.

Usos go to Raw. They've accomplished everything on Smackdown as a tag team.

I Think Corbin goes to Raw as well, and hopefully Orlon.

Sasha to Smackdown I think is a legit move.

I think Miz goes back to the blue brand too.

nah fam... A Braun vs Roman feud HAS to happen for the strap.... they are like batman and the joker it doesnt matter how many times they fight
