At WrestleMania we saw Becky Lynch pin Ronda Rousey's shoulders to the mat for the three count to become the new Undisputed Women's Champion, well, that is what WWE would like you to think, as the ending to this historic match was a botch.

But this is a mistake that could see the once rumored departing Rousey find a gateway back into WWE TV, as her hunt for the title could be a compelling way to get the heat back on Becky's title reign.

Moreover, SmackDown Live will move to FOX, and WWE wants the most popular stars on the show, and you don't get any bigger in the world of combat sports than Ronda Rousey.

Furthermore, with rumors going around that Rousey could be gone from WWE for a long time, it would be shocking if WWE actually keeps her name active on the roster by drafting her to SmackDown Live, which could set up a huge return for when the blue brand does debut on FOX.

Okay so this might sound like a truly far fetched point, but if you consider what is going to be addressed, then things just might start to make sense.

We all know that the Superstar Shake-up comes at the best possible time in WWE, as this concept allows WWE to freshen up their narratives, rosters, and title holders, but what if this year Vince McMahon doesn't want all of that change.

It is well documented that the brand split is not the best thing WWE has going for it, as the rating wars, and both brands fighting to be known as the best in the industry is just a bunch of myths WWE sells us to justify this concept.

While this could be a whole lot better than what it is right now, WWE won't make the effort, as we have already seen signs of the brand warfare coming to a close.

With titles unifying, superstars working on both brands, dual-branded pay-per-views, and the fact that WWE needs their biggest stars on SmackDown Live when the show moves to FOX, the brand split might be coming to an end.

With that said, it would be a shocking scene if Vince McMahon came out on Raw to announce that there will be no Superstar Shake-up as the brand split is over, this might seem far fetched, but in theory, it will make sense.
