The WWE 2020 Draft saw popular faction The New Day split across two brands for the first time in their WWE career.

Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods were drafted to Monday Night RAW, whereas Big E was drafted to SmackDown on Friday nights.

This was largely done to ensure that the former NXT Champion continued to be featured as a singles star, as opposed to a tag team wrestler with The New Day.

Whilst the faction remains in-tact, Big E has now firmly established himself as a singles competitor on SmackDown, becoming a two-time Intercontinental Champion.

Should the former Intercontinental Champion move to the red brand, there is a possibility that WWE could be tempted to once again shift Mr. Money in the Bank into a tag team wrestler once again.

Whilst linking up once again with his New Day partners would make for good television, it would stifle Big E's growth as a singles star that we have seen on SmackDown over the past twelve months.

#3 WWE RAW needs main event babyface stars

Bobby Lashley is the current WWE Champion on Monday Night RAW.

Since capturing the title back in March, Lashley has successfully defended the WWE Championship against top RAW babyface stars such as Drew McIntyre, Kofi Kingston and Goldberg.

However, in recent weeks it has become increasingly apparent that there is a lack of top main event babyfaces ready to challenge The All Mighty WWE Champion for his title.

Due to this void, WWE has resorted to Randy Orton once again entering the main event scene to challenge Lashley. This is before Goldberg likely gets another opportunity at Lashley's WWE Championship later this year.

Big E moving from SmackDown to RAW would provide the promotion with a ready-made top babyface talent that could step straight into the main event picture and challenge Lashley for his WWE Championship.
