#2 Shouldn't move to RAW: Buddy Murphy

Buddy Murphy is still a newcomer to SmackDown Live and has competed in a limited number of matches since arriving on the Blue Brand. The former Cruiserweight Champion is currently without an opponent, but might find his next rival after the FOX debut. There is no doubt that Murphy has huge potential and if he is booked well, could be a leading name on SmackDown Live.

Murphy had to wait a few months before he could make his long-awaited in-ring debut on SmackDown Live. The Australian Superstar was involved in the recent Roman Reigns storyline and made his SmackDown debut against 'The Big Dog.' Murphy didn't beat Reigns, but his debut match was certainly one of the best matches on the Blue Brand this year. Murphy subsequently faced Daniel Bryan, earning a massive victory over the former WWE Champion.

After making a striking first impression, WWE will be looking to groom Murphy's character. He could gain more opportunities on SmackDown, which has often been called the land of opportunities. The Red Brand is already stacked with a number of top-tier Superstars, and a brand switch would not be an ideal move for Murphy.

#2 Should move to RAW: Randy Orton

Randy Orton is one of the few names, who has not switched brands since the re-introduction of the brand split in 2016. Therefore, Orton should be a front runner to swap brands in the next draft. 'The Viper' could face fresh opponents, if he moves to RAW.

Orton recently had an outstanding rivalry with current WWE Champion Kofi Kingston. The two Superstars locked horns at SummerSlam and Clash of Champions. While their SummerSlam bout didn't have a winner, Kingston earned a clean victory over Orton at Clash of Champions. The feud ended there, as Brock Lesnar entered the WWE Title picture.

Being an elite Superstar, the thirteen-time WWE Champion could be a great inclusion for the Red Brand. Considering Orton has never received the opportunity to challenge for the Universal Championship, he could chase RAW's most coveted prize.
