WWE Draft 2017/Superstar Shake-up results: Complete list of transfers
The Raw after WrestleMania generally gives us a glimpse of the events that are in store for us for the remainder of the year. However, things seem a little different this year, considering that the week following the Raw after WrestleMania was far more eventful than the Raw preceding it.
In this fantastic episode, we got our first glimpse of the Superstars that moved from SmackDown to Raw as a result of the Superstar Shake-Up. And after a surprisingly fantastic episode Raw that saw a lot of surprise appearances, we bring you a comprehensive list of those men and women who moved in this piece. Read on!
#1 The Miz and Maryse
Raw began with John Cena’s theme music, but instead of John and Nikki, we were graced by the appearance of The Miz and his wife, Maryse, who continued to parody Cena and his fiance like they did before Wrestlemania. The Miz is a man who carried SmackDown on his shoulders for the duration of last year, completely reinventing his character.
We wonder if he will be booked as strongly on Raw as he was on SmackDown Live. Considering that he lost in his first Raw match, we don’t really think so. The good news is that he can still compete for the Intercontinental Championship thanks to the next Superstar who shifted.
#2 Dean Ambrose
Dean Ambrose carried the Intercontinental Championship from SmackDown to Raw, this week (does this mean that Kevin Owens is carrying the other mid-card championship, The United States Championship, to SmackDown?). He mistook The Miz and Maryse for John Cena and Nikki Bella, a mistake not anyone in the building actually bought.
Then he delivered a Dirty Deeds to the A-Lister. If Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins actually remain on Raw even after the trades on SmackDown actually transpire, we wonder if we could see a Shield reunion.
