5 Wrestlers Who Could Switch to SmackDown

Any fan of WWE would have heard of its famous and popular brand, SmackDown that has been airing numerous action-packed sporting events encompassing brutal brawls and epic showdowns. Whether it is AJ Styles, Alicia Taylor, Angelo Dawkins or Carmelo Hayes, WWE SmackDown boasts some of the best wrestlers who are known for their impressive strength, in-ring skills, and magnetic persona who breathe life into their performances.

Recently after SummerSlam, SmackDown has undergone a massive change where WWE superstar, Randy Orton moved from the brand to RAW. His defeat in the King of the Ring Finals prompted this switch signaling that other wrestlers might also switch brands. As a result, RAW’s roster continues to grow, SmackDown is seeing a reduction in its lineup. Here are 5 wrestlers who could potentially move to SmackDown.

• Kiana James

Kiara James is known in WWE for her impressive strength, magnetic persona, and dynamic fighting tactics that led to her winning the NXT’s Women's Tag Team Champion. While currently, she is a well-known presence in RAW, it is believed that her chances of retaining their presence in RAW seem minimal. As a result, it would be prudent to apply her expertise in SmackDown.

• Jey Uso

Jey Uso is a renowned WWE superstar who is known for his impressive fighting skills and strong family legacy. He, along with his brother, Jimmy Uso has acquired tremendous success in the world of professional wrestling. With numerous accolades under his belt, Jey has been a powerful presence and a solo star in RAW. However, a switch to SmackDown could be an opportunity for him to showcase his expertise.

• Chad Gable and The Creed Brothers

The Creed Brothers and Chad Gable, also known as ‘American Made’ are known for their impressive strength and magnetic on-screen persona. They are known for their multiple wins and have gained popularity due to their feud with The Wyatt Sicks on RAW. Given their dynamic in-ring skills, a brand shift will be fresh and enriching and offer them new and exciting challenges.

• Braun Strowman

Braun Strowman has come a long way since his debut in WWE in 2015. A dynamic presence in RAW, he gained enormous popularity for his impressive fighting skills and magnetic persona. His comeback to WWE following a grave injury in 2021 is deemed a testimony to his commitment to wrestling which brought him immense appreciation from the public. His recent SmackDown victory against Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio has led many to believe that his shift to SmackDown might be a positive development.

• Sami Zayn

Sami Zayin’s exceptional wrestling skills are well-known in the world of professional wrestling. His impressive in-ring acumen in WWE, charismatic persona, and fascinating storyline like during his time as Honorary Uce in the Bloodline earned him wide recognition, and an extensive fan following. Even though he made a strong impact on RAW, fans believe that Zayn’s shift to SmackDown will enable him to further display his skills and reunite with his friend, Kevin Owens.
