5 WWE Raw Stars That Should Be Moved to SmackDown Live

1. Cesaro
This one comes as a real no-brainer as Cesaro really should be sent over to The Blue Brand. For weeks before the draft, he had mentioned many times that he wanted to be drafted by Team Blue.
However, after falling deep into the draft Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan missed their chance to draft him as Stephanie McMahon and Mick Foley drafted him to RAW. Cesaro almost instantly showed his anger towards this selection during a promo later that night.
Despite not being happy about the move, Mick Foley assured Cesaro that he would be utilized on Team Red. Cesaro would then enter a Best-of-Seven series with Sheamus. The two were tied 3-3 at Clash of Champions, but saw their final bout end at a no contest.
Rather than have a rematch, Foley decided to pair the two up as a tag team. The duo is now set to battle with The New Day, who are close to breaking Demolition’s record. This makes it seem unlikely that Cesaro and Sheamus will win.
So, yet again, Cesaro is wasted with another pointless storyline. While the two are not terrible together, it seems more like RAW paired them together because they have nothing else for them at the moment.
Daniel Bryan has mentioned several times that he still wants Cesaro on SmackDown and has stated that The Swiss Superman was the one star he regretted not getting during the draft. Cesaro has mentioned too that he would consider switching over to Tuesday nights.
Cesaro going to Smackdown would be great for everyone involved. He would get a fresh start, and be a great new talent for their division. Being involved in the main event picture would be a possibility too.

The ideas are endless on what the former ROH stars could do on SmackDown. One thing for sure, though, is that Cesaro needs to leave RAW and get a fresh start.
