#3 - AJ Styles to RAW

Aj
The current WWE Champion, heading into his Six Pack Challenge at WWE Fastlane

AJ Styles is the 'Champ that runs the Camp.' He proclaims he built the Smackdown Live house and very few fans would disagree with him. Since the brand split, Aj Styles has been the face of Smackdown Live. He has held the WWE Championship on 2 occasions and has featured in a majority of main storylines for the past 2 years. Styles has earned himself the right to be in the top 3 performers in the whole of WWE, and proven that he can have a quality match with almost anyone.

Shakeup is the key-word in the term 'Superstar Shakeup' and a Shakeup is whats required. Although nothing is official in WWE until its official, and even then it may not be, it would appear that Shinsuke Nakamura looks set to dethrone AJ Styles as the WWE Champion at Wrestlemania. There are few talents that fans have backed more than Shinsuke, and it appears that WWE is going to give him a chance to prove his star power, similar to his run in NXT. A new Champion would mean AJ would require a new program, and that program should take place on the Red brand.

With a new array of stars and growth and development of others, programs with Braun Strowman, Roman Reigns and Samoa Joe would all be great options heading into the summer. Smackdown requires big name players for it to return to its entertaining best, but as follows, that can be carried by other stars.
