10 Roster Moves WWE Must Make After SummerSlam 2017
3. Becky Lynch To Raw
No wrestler has suffered more from the way the SmackDown women's division has been booked in 2017 than Becky Lynch. The writers' insistence on occupying the group with an endless stream of colourless, multi-person feuds has strangled the performers. They're constantly competing for attention with four or five different peers at the same time, giving them limited opportunities to show personality, and thus build meaningful connections with the fans.
Lynch was on the verge of becoming SD's female ace following last year's draft. She's the brand's most natural babyface, and a perfect centrepiece for the division, but the lack of individual focus has hurt her greatly. This year has seen Becky go from a genuine star to just another face in the crowd, and it's time for her to get out.
Raw don't do as good a job of utilising the full breadth of their women's division, but they at least give individual characters a chance to shine. She'd be competing with the likes of Sasha Banks and Alexa Bliss, but at least Becky, one of the most complete performers in the company, would have a spotlight of her own once again.
