WWE Draft 2020: 5 early trade ideas for Superstar Shake-up
Everyone is thinking about WrestleMania 36, but let’s not forget that the Superstar Shake-Up happens shortly after. Which WWE Superstar will go to which brand?
We are just under a month away from the Showcase of the Immortals and the card is shaping up to be an exciting one. However, while WrestleMania 36 seems to be on everyone’s minds, let us not forget that a week or so after Mania, as has been the case for the past few years now, WWE will likely promise to shake things up again.
Meaning that we are in line for another Superstar Shake-Up. Or WWE Draft. Or whatever WWE decides to call it this year.
That means that Superstars from Raw, SmackDown and NXT are expected to hop around from brand to brand to give us all a fresh start with whole new feuds and match-ups in the new, post-Mania calendar year.
Last year’s post-Mania Shake-Up saw big moves like Roman Reigns becoming “SmackDown’s biggest acquisition,” while a Blue Brand loyalist like AJ Styles went to Raw. As we all may remember, it didn’t take long before WWE mucked up their own Shake-Up mere weeks later with the “Wild Card Rule,” but thankfully reset the balance with another Draft in the fall.
Last fall’s Draft saw people like Andrade, Randy Orton and Kevin Owens move to Raw while Sasha Banks, Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman went to SmackDown. All have found tremendous success since getting drafted. Who could benefit from a WWE Draft in April?
