WWE: Redrafting Raw and SmackDown’s 2016 Brand Split

WWE.com

13. Raw – Cesaro and Sheamus

Once foes, Cesaro and Sheamus are now working together as a tag team. They even knocked off the New Day’s record-breaking title reign to become the Raw Tag Team Champions.

The titles should move Cesaro and Sheamus up the board and as a tag team, which they weren’t during the July draft. With the Raw tag division as weak as its ever been, these two should continue to claim a top spot for the foreseeable future and into WrestleMania 33 season.

14. SmackDown – American Alpha

Following them up are the American Alpha, the team of Chad Gable and Jason Jordan. They surprisingly won the SmackDown Tag Team Championship from the Wyatt Family in December and are pretty much the lone face team on the Blue Brand.

In this scenario, Gable and Jordan move up the draft board by a handful of spots. They’ll keep their current placement on SmackDown and work with heel tag teams moving forward. Who that will be, if it’s not Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt, remains to be seen because the Ascension, Vaudevillains, Usos, and Breezango are barely relevant right now.
