Smackdown Live, however, did not lose out completely. It was revealed during the show that The Miz would be heading to the Blue Brand, and you can see a clip of that below:
Editor’s Opinion:
This is interesting! It’s always exciting to see what new rivalries will be formed when superstars trade brands, and this year is no exception. I hope that some of these superstars will have their careers reignited, and will gain new and wonderful opportunities on Raw!
