The WWE SmackDown women's division suffered a massive setback when Billie Kay was let go from the company. To compensate for her departure, the division may decide to bring in Io Shirai from NXT, who can mix it up with the stacked roster. The 'Genius of the Sky' would be a welcome addition to the division.
Io Shirai can excel both as a babyface and a heel, as we've seen during her NXT stint. She is also an incredible worker, and in time, will be a great opponent for the likes of Bianca Belair, Sasha Banks, and Bayley. In fact, her first feud on WWE SmackDown should be against Bayley, and she should go over!
Io Shirai has spent far too much time in NXT and it may be time for her to make a splash in a big way. WWE SmackDown also needs fresh new blood to keep Bianca Belair exciting and interesting for fans. Do you guys think that she is ready for the main roster?
