WWE SmackDown could see major changes in the coming weeks due to some events on RAW. Bron Breakker has wreaked havoc for the red brand's General Manager, Adam Pearce after he wasn't announced in the King of the Ring tournament.
Since this mindset change in Breakker, he has destroyed everyone in his way. This past Monday on RAW, the former NXT Champion injured Ricochet. Adam Pearce has tried multiple times to control Bron. However, his only solution could be trading the 26-year-old to SmackDown in exchange for a huge WWE SmackDown superstar.
The first option could be the phenomenal AJ Styles. The veteran is facing Cody Rhodes at Clash at the Castle. However, if he loses, he could be traded to RAW and put into the world title picture against Damian Priest.
The other superstar whom Pearce could target is the LA Knight. The Megastar is currently chasing the United States Championship on WWE SmackDown. Logan Paul has yet to accept this challenge. Before Paul reverts to Knight, Pearce could steal LA from SmackDown by tempting him with a World Heavyweight Championship opportunity.

WWE SmackDown saw a dip in ratings
WWE is progressing on almost every front. However, it is seemingly struggling with ratings. This week's RAW saw a dip, and so did SmackDown last Friday.
According to Wrestlenomics, SmackDown saw a 4% dip in viewership, bringing in 2,207,000. The episode had an 18-49 rating of 0.61, a 6% drop from last week. The segment between Styles and Rhodes had the highest viewership of the show.
While the dip is not a big one, one key reason could be the absence of Roman Reigns. While the Bloodline story is taking an interesting turn, The Head of the Table's return will be the catalyst for a huge spike in the viewership.
The Tribal Chief hasn't appeared on WWE TV since losing at WrestleMania 40. The 'We want Roman' Chants are getting louder day by day. His return will surely blow the roof off the place.
The modern-day GOAT is currently filming a Hollywood movie. According to reports, Roman is scheduled to return at SummerSlam. However, the rumors aren't that strong yet.
