More Superstars Expected To Switch The Brands During WWE Draft Night Two
WWE Draft 2020 Night One on Smackdown has a lot of surprises as we seen the top Superstar Seth Rollins and Rey Mysterio’s family is drafted to Friday Night SmackDown. But the biggest shocker is splitting up the New Day after Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods moved to Raw while Big E is going to stay on Smackdown.
Kofi and Woods returned to WWE last week on Smackdown after recovering from injuries and won the Smackdown Tag Team Titles by defeating Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura. With moving them to Raw, there is still confusion on how they will bring back Smackdown Tag Team Titles.

According to the Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio, likely plans for Night Two WWE Draft 2020 is to move Raw Tag Team Champions, The Street Profits to Smackdown.
“They have not moved The Street Profits over but put it this way, it absolutely as of this morning, The Street Profits were moving.”
We also saw Bianca Belair, Montez Ford’s wife moved to Smackdown on Night One Draft and WWE usually keep real life couple on same brand.
Dave Meltzer also stated that Intercontinental Champion AJ Styles is going to stay on Friday Nights because United States Champion Bobby Lashley is drafted to Raw along with Hurt Business.
It was also noted that as AJ Styles is moved to Raw, they are going to send one more Superstar from Smackdown to Raw. So that Drew McIntyre will have some new opponents on red brand.
“Besides AJ, I think they’re gonna send one more guy from SmackDown over [to feud with] Drew so he’ll have some new opponents.” (h/t WrestlingNews.co)
