WWE Draft 2020: Roman Reigns & AJ Styles To Switch Brands?

Shuffling things in the WWE will be done via the WWE Draft that is reportedly happening in the month of October. After getting pushed for two separate occasions, the shakeup process will finally go down and things could be drastically changed on Raw or SmackDown. It appears that some of the roster members will get their brand changed before Survivor Series.

Roman Reigns’ return to WWE television has already made things interesting from SummerSlam onwards. He has finally become a heel in the WWE that could also be a huge factor while choosing the names in the WWE Draft process. Additionally, The Big Dog has become the WWE Universal Champion at Payback 2020 by pinning Braun Strowman that could also be a factor.

WWE Draft 2020: Roman Reigns & AJ Styles To Switch Brands?

As the WWE Draft approaches, Roman Reigns will be the top heel on the SmackDown brand. So this makes AJ Styles’ previous top heel spot in jeopardy. His spot will be totally wasted given the caliber of talent he is. Thus, it becomes certain that either one of them is going to change the SmackDown brand, for sure.

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer discussed the upcoming WWE Draft. As per the veteran wrestling journalist, it perfectly makes sense to switch brands for AJ Styles or Roman Reigns. But he also pointed out how the WWE Championship picture could be a determining factor in this equation.

“Now does Reigns go to RAW in the draft, or does AJ go to RAW in the draft, or does neither of them go to RAW in the draft? But with Reigns as a heel, AJ’s not the top heel anymore so he can go over, but McIntyre’s going to need new opponents unless Orton wins [the WWE Title], but then Orton’s going to need opponents because it’s not like there are a whole plethora of babyfaces on that side either. So, there are a lot of shake-ups that are needed.” (transcription by Ringside News)

Sending Roman to Raw would mean that two top titles will be on the red brand. Also, Paul Heyman is back on the blue brand which could be the reason why AJ would like to move from his current position on SmackDown.

So chances are high at this point that AJ Styles would be the one to switch brands at the WWE Draft. Randy Orton isn’t guaranteed to win the WWE Title from Drew McIntyre whereas his rumored WrestleMania match with Edge is also not confirmed.
