I think they should swap Baron Corbin to Smackdown, then have Undertaker return as a GM with his biker gimmick, and have a storyline where Corbin is revealed to be Bikertaker's long-lost son

If they replace Styles with Zayn, they'll be replacing the best singles wrestler with the second best singles wrestler. Not exactly an awful trade. Zayn could very easily be a top guy with the proper booking. The fans want to love him.


Spoiler:
Yeah it isn't too bad in that case, i'd imagine with smackdown's booking they could create maybe another main event talent.
He's more than good enough to.


Spoiler:
I'm hoping the "other" tag team will be Cesaro & Sheamus. I'd split them up immediately.


Spoiler:
yeah. Sheamus could be a good hand in the mid card and if Styles is going to Raw, i'd argue Cesaro should be getting a main event push.

Nakamura, Zayn and Cesaro as main eventers at least from the in ring aspect should hold things up. Then if you want a good promo bring over Owens and maybe promote Aries.

would not mind that at all for smackdown though raw could suffer a bit, then again they're replacing Owens with Styles so thats an upgrade.

My predictions, it's gonna be a randomized draft. Raw gets 6 picks on Monday, SmackDown gets 6 picks on Tuesday.

To Raw:

1. Alexa Bliss
2. Luke Harper
3. Aiden English
4. Baron Corbin (w/ Intercontinental Championship)
5. Kalisto
6. AJ Styles

To SmackDown:

1. Seth Rollins
2. Kevin Owens (w/ United States Championship)
3. The New Day
4. Nia Jax
5. Enzo and Cass
6. Charlotte

Regarding the 1st part of this years superstar shake-up I think it was basically solid because AJ Styles stays at Smackdown.

I´m a little bit nervous because they trade every uppercard/ main event superstar (Ambrose, Wyatt, Miz) to RAW and I think it´s more than possible that SD Live won´t get equal compensation... except Kevin Owens will come.

That Miz trade wasn´t really necessary imo. That RAW roster is already stacked with upper card talent and the Miz was one of the bright spots on Smackdown, it´d be a waste if he´s slipping down the card.

My guess for today´s shake-up: Charlotte, Emma, Anderson & Gallows, one out of Enzo & Cass or the New Day, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Rusev, Andrade Almas and some guys like Curtis Axel.
