I guess everyone is saying those two are going to switch anyway, but this is also explicitly a pre-switch announcement, not an accidental early release of something. They could have just been choosing 2 random people to use as examples.

Yeah they're just blank slots. It's not like Tyson Kidd came out last week on Raw. That being said, everyone, even people who don't read spoilers, knew that AJ was going to Raw. Charlotte was a likely candidate too.

I do like that AJ formally made peace with Shane and turned face before going to Raw. I have to admit I think it'd be the funniest poo poo ever if they made AJ's character "mad about going to Raw because Raw sucks" and I'd bet money they are. Also if that Trips stable is happening I'd be down for them vs. Face Club, tbh.

I don't so much mean plucky faces, more "dudes who are funny with AJ and beat rear end". They have such good chemistry and AJ got over as a face for being an entertaining dick so roll with it.

Shane/Bryan in an unsanctioned match for the right to keep AJ Styles on Smackdown, to which AJ goes 'ah, y'know what Bryan, you're a nice guy, I don't wanna see you getting murdered, I'll just go to Raw. have a great day y'all'

AJ asking Shane to keep him on Smackdown Live and showing him respect was really weird and counterproductive to the idea of moving AJ so I don't know how they're going to write him over to Raw without Shane coming off as bitter dick, which is going to hurt his face credibility more than fighting the most over wrestler in the company in a wrestling match

They've emphasized that it's not a draft, so it's unclear if the GM's even have any say over the switches. For all we know it's names in a drum or musical chairs (I hope it's musical chairs)

Hope it leads to a Balor Club vs. The Club club on a pole match for rights to the name Club.

Throwing AJ, Balor, and the Club together would probably get me to give RAW some time to turn me away again. Especially if they're going against some kind of Samoa Joe/Kevin Owens grouping (assuming they're still part of Triple H's crew).

Yeah if they make the club a thing on Raw I will tune in on the regular again to at least see where it goes.

Can he pass for a "cruiserweight"? Because that would seem to give him some purpose.

Didn't he go from wasted on RAW to wasted on SD? And he only really had a cup of coffee in NXT, right? So has there been any part of Uhaa Nation's WWE career worth going back and seeing?

So Uhaa Nation's entire run in WWE has been totally nothing, right? wasn't his thing on the indies that he was a flippy guy, but then Vince called him up early b/c he's a big guy and he can do big guy stuff, or something like that?

I've never seen a ton of him but my impression has always been that his real appeal is that he's a big guy who moves like a CW, but since WWE slows its CWs down it kind of just makes him a really flexible big guy who isn't THAT big compared to the real big guys. Which is why I suggested the CW division since he kind of works the way Samoa Joe did in the X Division or Brian Cage does in Lucha Underground. A bruiser who can toss around CWs but still keep up with them. But you're stuck with a weight limit, I guess.
