SPOILER: Top RAW Name Backstage at SmackDown, Possible Trade – A former WWE Champion has been confirmed to be backstage at today’s SmackDown taping at the Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona
According to PWInsider, Drew McIntyre is expected to make an appearance on tonight’s show, adding intrigue to the already anticipated episode and fueling speculation about his future on the Blue Brand.
Recent reports suggest McIntyre could be transitioning from RAW to SmackDown, a move that would align with WWE’s roster adjustments amid new TV deals. With SmackDown now airing in a three-hour format, bolstering its roster with a proven main-event talent like McIntyre makes strategic sense. While no official announcement has been made, McIntyre’s potential move has been a consistent topic of conversation at recent RAW and SmackDown tapings.
The Scottish Warrior’s presence on SmackDown would provide a fresh dynamic and new rivalries, potentially reinvigorating the brand as it adapts to its expanded runtime. His hard-hitting style and intense promos could make him a standout figure in the Blue Brand’s top-tier storylines.
In contrast, Logan Paul’s confirmed transition from SmackDown to RAW reflects WWE’s broader reshuffling strategy, aiming to maximize its stars’ impact across different shows. With McIntyre potentially joining SmackDown’s ranks, the brand could see an immediate boost in star power and match quality.
Fans won’t have to wait long to see how the situation unfolds. Tonight’s SmackDown promises a compelling episode as WWE continues to shape its roster for the new year.
