WWE SmackDown Live: 5 changes that might happen when the blue brand moves to Fox

#4 More focus on the in-ring competition

A huge push for Nakamura?

When Fox signed the deal with WWE, they made it clear that they wanted SmackDown to be more of a sports-oriented program. Fox is willing to include SmackDown as a part of their sports block of programming, which will run from Thursday to Sunday, and hence they wanted some major changes in the product.

SmackDown Live could become a paradise for talented and underutilized Superstars like Shinsuke Nakamura and Rusev, as they have incredible in-ring skills and create classic matches with other superstars, hence WWE management might decide to push them.

This decision will be welcomed by the WWE Universe with open arms as the fans have always wanted WWE to focus more on the in-ring competition. This move might also help them in competing with rival brands like AEW and NJPW, as they can attract more pro wrestling fans from around the world.
