10 Roster Moves WWE Must Make After SummerSlam 2017

10. Zack Ryder To Raw

The Hype Bros haven't had much to do this year. Zack Ryder suffered a serious knee injury last December, and while it initially looked like this would prompt a significant singles push for Mojo Rawley, this never materialised. It looked as though they were on the verge of breaking up, but the angle hasn't been given a whole lot of airtime on SmackDown, and there's a chance WWE have already forgotten about it.

Whatever happens with that particular story, it's clear that Ryder is going nowhere at the moment. The former United States Champion has worked just three televised matches since returning in June, and, as has often been the case throughout his WWE career, he now finds himself cast astray once again.

Would moving brands cure his woes? Unlikely, but it's not like he can fall much further at this point. Raw's upper-midcard/main event scene is bloated, but the card's lower tiers still lack depth. Ryder, a fine wrestler on his day, could help pad the Intercontinental Title division, and moving him from SmackDown would allow WWE to split The Hype Bros without an overlong break-up angle.
