#1 SmackDown needs some new, young talent

Mustafa Ali represents the next generation of stars on SmackDown.

This last point is more opinion-based. Right after WM 35, SmackDown was producing some great shows. The mid-card was stacked with talented names that were new like Aleister Black, Buddy Murphy, Andrade, Chad Gable and Mustafa Ali. Of all of those names, only Ali and Gable are a part of the Blue brand currently. We haven't seen either man in a while but both are still members of SmackDown.

I'm sure the likes of Sheamus, Jeff Hardy, The Miz, Dolph Ziggler and John Morrison all have their supporters but none of those names are young up-and-comers or newer talent. Each person has been with the company for at least a decade and in Morrison's case, a decade on and off. I personally like to see some newer Superstars show up and get chances so that things don't get stale.

The New Day is one of the most entertaining teams ever but they have already had a bunch of runs atop the tag team decision. Hardy is still good in the ring but he's not the same Superstar he used to be. Sheamus is a decent heel heel but he's not doing anything new. Someone like Bray Wyatt, however, has completely remade himself into one of the hottest acts in the industry.

I know that Fish is over 40 and the rest of the members are 30 or older but in terms of main-roster shelf-life, they are still new. They have unlimited potential and feuds on either show. Whatever direction they take could likely carry any brand they are on for years. SmackDown desperately needs some new faces and faces that can wrestle and talk.

RAW has exciting names like Kevin Owens, Aleister Black, Andrade, Ricochet and Murphy. SmackDown does not. For the reasons mentioned above, Undisputed Era needs to join the Blue brand next.
