3 biggest things WWE cleverly told us on SmackDown Live this week ( 16 April 2019)

The Superstar Shake-Up began on Monday Night RAW this week, and it was concluded on SmackDown Live. The elation was sky-high as some top superstars were traded from the flagship show.

Two biggest names were exchanged between the two brands this week. Following the arrival of AJ Styles on RAW, the company shocked everyone when Roman Reigns became a member of the SmackDown Live roster. The Intercontinental Champion Finn Balor arrived on the blue brand from RAW, while former Cruiserweight Champion Buddy Murphy joined SmackDown from 205 Live.

The SmackDown Women's division received a titanic boost from the Superstar Shake-Up. Former RAW Women's Champion Bayley and Ember Moon were the fresh names to arrive from the red brand, while former NXT Women's Champion Kairi Sane got her main roster call-up.

Here we discuss three things WWE cleverly told us on SmackDown Live this week.

#3 Asuka and Kairi Sane could dethrone the IIconics at Money in the Bank

Will we see this at Money in the Bank?

Paige promised to bring her own tag team this week, and she did not disappoint. Though the fans were not pleased to see Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose interrupt her, Paige subsequently introduced the team of Asuka and Kairi Sane.

The new team of Asuka and Kairi Sane is undoubtedly impressive, and they could dominate the Women's Tag Team division. The Pirate Princess made a statement on her main roster debut after she pinned Peyton Royce. The team of Bayley, Ember Moon, Kairi Sane, and Asuka won the eight-woman tag team match on SmackDown Live this week.

Kairi Sane has an awe-inspiring track record in NXT, and she will be aiming to replicate it on the main roster. Besides winning the NXT Women's Title, she won the Mae Young Classic. Judging by the most recent episode of the blue brand, Sane and Asuka could dethrone The IIconics at Money in the Bank.

#2 Bayley might get a singles push

Bayley and Becky Lynch

Bayley is now a member of SmackDown Live. Before her run with the Women's Tag Team Championship with Sasha Banks, the Hugger had a substandard run as a singles competitor. Considering Bayley failed to reach the top of the ladder on RAW, the scenario could alter on the blue brand.

Bayley and Sasha Banks made history at Elimination Chamber by winning the inaugural Women's Tag Team Titles. Unfortunately, they lost the belts to the IIconics at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Bayley had colossal success in NXT as she was a top competitor of the developmental brand. The former NXT Women's Champion produced memorable bouts in NXT. Bayley had a promising start of her main roster career as she won the RAW Women's Championship, but she lost her way after losing the belt.

Bayley confronted the double champion Becky Lynch on SmackDown Live this week. Considering her dexterity in the squared circle, she definitely deserves a big push. SmackDown Live is called the Land of Opportunity and Bayley might seize hers.

#1 SmackDown Live is the new yard of Roman Reigns

The Big Dog will dominate SmackDowm Live

Perhaps the most exciting moment of this week was the arrival of Roman Reigns on SmackDown Live. Without a shadow of a doubt, it was the biggest draft of the blue brand since the reintroduction of the brand split. The Big Dog ruled RAW for a long time, and he is set to dominate SmackDown Live.

Since SmackDown will move to the Fox network in October, Vince McMahon is determined to improve the quality of the product. WWE already announced that the Chairman would be on the blue brand to reveal the biggest acquisition in SmackDown Live history. Being a heel, Mr. McMahon presented Elias as his biggest acquisition, and the fans were displeased by the announcement. However, Roman Reigns made his way to the ring after interrupting Elias, and the former Universal Champion took down the Chairman with a Superman Punch.

Judging by the scenario on the blue brand this week, Vince McMahon might get involved in a storyline with Roman Reigns. We saw a feud between the two in the past which helped to elevate the stature of Reigns. Considering Randy Orton and Roman Reigns had a brawl after SmackDown Live went off the air, the Viper could be Reigns' first opponent on the blue brand. It will be interesting to see when Reigns gets a title shot as the current WWE Champion Kofi Kingston is riding a huge wave of momentum.
