10 Problems WWE Solved With The 2019 Superstar Shake-Up

10. Housing The Homeless

Finding permanent homes for the swathe of directionless NXT call-ups who'd spent the past few months as brand-less "free agents" was always going to be one of WWE's biggest priorities in this latest Superstar Shake-Up. Assigning them to Raw or SmackDown was a relatively dull box-ticking exercise. Still, it had to be done, and attaching these talented men and women to their new spots should bode well for their future.

Lacey Evans is now at the forefront of Raw's women's division. She planted her flag shortly before wrestling Natalya in a number one contender's match, besting the veteran and announcing her intention to challenge Becky Lynch in the near future. Elsewhere, Ricochet and Aleister Black stuck together, Lars Sullivan made Monday nights his home by battering fellow newcomer Rey Mysterio, and WWE bantered EC3 off by having Braun Strowman Chokeslam him through a panel by the stage. As far as SmackDown goes, Heavy Machinery will settle on Tuesday nights.

Their fortunes will vary, but at least Evans, Sullivan, and co. know where they're going now. Let's hope they defy their low expectations on Raw and SmackDown.
