WWE Rumor Roundup: Top Superstar injured in men's Royal Rumble, Brock Lesnar gets into a real backstage fight, Edge goes off script - 26th January 2020

#1 AJ Style moving to SmackDown, reason why he isn't being pushed on RAW

In his recent YouTube video, Sportskeeda's Tom Colohue opened up about the possible plans for the reported Superstar Shakeup that is scheduled to take place after WrestleMania 36.

AJ Styles is one of the Superstars who is rumored to return to SmackDown. Tom explained that Paul Heyman currently has nothing planned for the former WWE Champion, which explains why he has been kept away from the major storylines on RAW.

It is believed that Styles would be more comfortable on SmackDown, the brand in which he rose to prominence.

Tom had the following to say:

There has been a lot of speculation recently as to who is on a shortlist of Superstars who Paul Heyman wants to push. Drew McIntyre recently confirmed a report I made on Sportskeeda saying that they have a lot more freedom and Drew McIntyre himself is one of the people getting a push as a result of that.

Not on that list and conspicuous by their absence is AJ Styles, someone who came on the back of a large WWE Championship run, that was ended in the November before the trade. And even though now they have been paired with The OC, AJ Styles has not been so heavily involved in some of the top storylines. He is a name that is now being suggested that could move back to SmackDown, where it is believed he is more comfortable, and it's believed that Paul Heyman doesn't have anything planned for him at the moment.
