Which superstars should switch brands during the next Draft/Shakeup?

[September]

I remember people saying last year Rusev and Ziggler would be better off on Smackdown...

I think it doesn't matter where most of these guys land if WWE sees nothing in them.

Going off the premise of the thread though. Charlotte, Nakamura, Jindar Mahal, The Hype Bros move to RAW.

Smackdown gets Jason Jordan, Bray Wyatt, Nia Jax, and The Bar. AJ Styles should stay as the face of Smackdown.

Nia needs to stay on RAW. We need a female hoss. SD has Tamina.

Nia needs to stay on RAW. We need a female hoss. SD has Tamina.

I picture RAW as more the wrestling entertainment show and Smackdown catering more to the wrestling. I think they're missing a lot of opportunities with wrestlers like Jax when they want to put over women like Bliss who is still improving but is more of a performer than a good wrestler and I'd like to see Nia and Tamina on the same show they got a pop when they faced off and we could get some character depth with Nia.

Kalisto.

And they need to trade him back and forth like three times, and interview him after each draw to see if they can recreate the "Good....uh....Lucha....Things " moment.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

AJ and Roman should stay where they are so they could be the "anchors" for their respective brands.

Anybody else can be traded as necessary.

rusev

naw i think they finally got him in a good pocket teaming with the Mozart of melody

Time for AJ to move. Him vs Orton is the only interesting feud they haven't done yet. On Raw there's some fresh matchups for him. Him vs Roman was great and wasn't exhausted.

Samoa Joe or Finn Balor. Not both, but one going would open some matchups up on SD.

Give Rollins a shot at being the top babyface on SD

Samoa Joe

id reignite his Feud with Owens

 

[TOAD99]

If Braun isn’t gonna get a run with the universal title soon, I’d move him to smack down and hotshot him to the title.

Braun vs AJ as a David vs Goliath match would be great.

I’d also move Rollins to smackdown and him and AJ can be the top faces.

I’d move Baron Corbin to raw and Orton.

And I’d fire Ziggler

 

[Bob-omb]

I’d like Ward to switch places with Road Dogg as SD’s head booker.

Also Braun for Randy. Raw needs some more vets the newer guys can feud with.

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

Off the top of my head:

Seth, Sasha and Finn to SD.

Becky, Orton to Raw.

Everyone on Smackdown needs to stay because they're finally doing a Smackdown PPV in Baltimore for the first time since the brand split, and I swear to god them nikkas better not move anyone I want to see to Raw after not sending them here for two fukking years.

Being more serious, I was just thinking today that I don't really see much need to do a huge shakeup like they did this year. Most people on the roster have settled into a nice spot and those that haven't (midcarders mostly) probably wouldn't get used much opposite show either.

But, if I absolutely had to do a shakeup...

To Raw:
Carmella
Natayla
Becky Lynch
Dolph Ziggler
Randy Orton (there's nothing for him to do on Smackdown anymore)
Breezango (provided the rumors of The Shield breaking up post-Mania are true; without them, there's a huge hole that opens for top face team)
AJ Styles (much as it pains me to admit it, he's probably done on SD after Mania)
Baron Corbin

To Smackdown:
Bayley
Alicia Fox
Sasha Banks
Elias
Samoa Joe
Finn Balor
The Miz w/ The Miztourage
The Club
Seth Rollins (probably wouldn't happen in a million years, but I think Seth would benefit from a new environment)

Like others have mentioned keep AJ on Smackdown. AJ is becoming what Edge was to Smackdown for so many years. It's his show and if he went to Raw they would only use him to put over and worship Reigns.

The amount of star power is unbalanced right now in favor of Raw (surprise, surprise). Even that out by bringing The Miz back to Smackdown along with either Finn Balor or Braun Stroman for someone like Bobby Roode and Dolph Ziggler. Raw would still have the overall star power edge, but it wouldn't be as ridiculously lopsided as they've made it now.

As far as the women go, they pretty much just shook each roster up by adding Paige and the five other NXT women. So maybe just a one for one swap for someone who needs a new look. Also put Lana back with Rusev while they're at it.

Finn and Cesaro to Smackdown would be nice

 

[DosCadenaz]

Sasha, Bayley, Finn and Joe on SmackDown

Dolph, Naomi, Becky, Usos on Raw

 

[Kang Deezy]

Styles should never leave smackdown

I think the fan outcry about the rumors kept him on Smackdown I can’t see it happening again

Finn to Smackdown makes a ton of sense
