10 Wrestlers Who MUST Switch Brands In The 2021 WWE Draft

3. Kevin Owens (SmackDown To Raw)

WWE Draft 2021

Earlier, there was a whinge about getting Shayna Baszler the hell away from Nia Jax. This is sort of similar. WWE should endeavour to put Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn on different shows, at least for a while, because they're starting to literally "fight forever" and there's only so far they can go with it.

That recent beef between KO and Sami on SmackDown should be the last time they clash for a solid year. In order to ensure that happens, the company must put Owens back on Raw and re-establish him as either a WWE Title challenger for Bobby Lashley (if he's still champion after the Draft) or a star-making babyface for emerging stars like Damian Priest, Riddle and maybe even Cedric Alexander.

Why not?

Owens could also be a fine rival for Sheamus' United States Title too. He doesn't have much left to offer SmackDown despite only joining the brand last October - WWE has burned through KO's Universal Title bid, and the obligatory program with Zayn.
