RAW is a little short when it comes to heels because we know that the two top Champions- Drew McIntyre and Apollo Crews will need more and more people to work with, in the days and weeks that follow. And we all know that a whole bunch of Superstars was let go from RAW in light of the current economic crisis in what was one of the saddest days in WWE history, not long ago.

Robert Roode is someone who is not being used on SmackDown and can go on to have great matches with both Drew McIntyre and Apollo Crews. He is one of the best storytellers in the division and if the need of the hour is to make one's opponent looks good, there are few in the company, on RAW, SmackDown, or NXT that can do the job better than Robert Roode. Yes, he was stuck at home in Canada but with Kevin Owens back in the mix and Brock Lesnar working WrestleMania, there are always ways if WWE wills it.
AJ Styles went from RAW to SmackDown, so it makes sense for a glorious arrival from the Blue brand to the red one, does it not?
