This week's Raw and SmackDown will be quite special as the Superstar Shake-Up will return once again. It will be a two-night event as SmackDown superstars will head to Raw first and then Raw superstars will move to SmackDown the next night.
Last week's shows put many question for the fans as many top Raw and SmackDown superstars traded their brands for one night such as WWE Champion Kofi Kingston, Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman. This week it will be decided which brand they end up on.
Apart from the Superstar Shake-Up, there are various questions running through every WWE fan's mind after watching last week's episodes. Hopefully WWE could answer all of those questions on this week's Raw and SmackDown.

So, here are five big questions heading into this week's Raw and SmackDown...
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
#5 Will Bray Wyatt finally return with a new gimmick?
Bray Wyatt's return to WWE has been rumored for a very long time. He was expected to return before WrestleMania 35 but he has not returned yet. WWE actually doesn't have a storyline planned for his return and the company wants to change his gimmick.
Last week's Raw featured a puppet vignette which has been rumored as Wyatt's new gimmick in WWE. It will be interesting to know whether it really ends up being related to Wyatt's new character, as it will put a huge impact on his on-going career.
Wyatt has struggled for years with his current gimmick. It's not that his gimmick didn't suit him, but he never lived up the hype of his character. When he begins a feud with any top star, he would always end up losing the entire feud, making his character look weak.
Normally, in the past Super Shake-Ups, it has been witnessed the two-night event features many huge returns of former stars and debuts from NXT. So the question is will Bray Wyatt be one of the returning superstar possibly with a new gimmick?
#4 Will Paige announce the debut of The Sky Pirates?
Last week, The IIconics defeated The Boss 'n' Hug Connection, Nia Jax and Tamina and The Divas of Doom to win the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles at WrestleMania 35. They retained their titles on SmackDown against a local team called The Brooklyn Bellas.
During this match on SmackDown, cameras cut backstage and showed Paige watching the match attentively. Then Paige said in a backstage interview that she will be bringing an "impressive" women's tag team that will compete for the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles.
While there are many options, rumors are stating it will be The Sky Pirates (Kairi Sane and lo Shirai) from NXT. Both women have been NXT for a long time, it's time to promote them to the main roster. So will Paige announce the debuts of two new NXT stars?
#3 Will Dean Ambrose be back once again?
Dean Ambrose wasn't part of WrestleMania 35 but he did show up the next night for his final WWE match against Bobby Lashley. The match never happened as Lashley attacked The Lunatic Fringe before the contest could begin.
There have been rumors that Ambrose will be working until his contract expires by the end of this month. It's still unknown whether Ambrose is leaving WWE or will he re-sign with the company. Things will be cleared as we move ahead in the following month.
Ambrose might once again return to Raw and could have his last feud with Lashley in the following weeks. WWE needs to utilize Ambrose if he is definitely leaving the WWE as it will promote other stars to look strong. So will Ambrose return on this week's Raw?
#2 Which superstars will be traded at this year's Superstar Shake-Up?
The biggest highlight of this week's Raw and SmackDown will be the two-night Superstar Shake-Up. From the past two years WWE has begin this tradition of not all but few WWE superstars switching their brands for some refreshing new rivalries.
Last two years of Superstar Shake-Ups were great but some of the trades were completely pointless. WWE needs to avoid making useless trades at this year's Superstar Shake-Up and only trade superstars who are in need for a change of the brand.
There are rumors that no WWE superstar knows anything about this year's Superstar Shakeup or which brand they might end up on, as the company is not letting anyone know about it. So which all superstars will be traded at this year's Superstar Shake-Up?
#1 Who will challenge WWE Champion Kofi Kingston and the Universal Champion Seth Rollins?
Seth Rollins became the new Universal Champion by defeating Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35, and Kofi Kingston became the new WWE Champion by defeating Daniel Bryan at the Show of Shows. Last week both of them competed in tag team action.
Now, both the champions have no challengers for their titles as both Lesnar and Bryan didn't show up after WrestleMania 35. Lesnar's contract status with the company is unknown and Bryan was supposedly injured after his WWE Title match against Kingston.
It's possible their challengers are known at this week's Raw and SmackDown. Since Superstar Shake-Up will trade many top stars to different roster, which will make things more clear. So who will challenge the new champions Kofi Kingston and Seth Rollins?
