If you needed proof of how poorly WWE plans things these days, look no further than the 2019 WWE Superstar Shakeup, a two-night event that apparently is still taking place two weeks later.

WWE billed the annual event as a two-night affair after WrestleMania, resetting the rosters by shuffling several wrestlers (and then having some wrestlers who moved brands together still feuding with each other rather than starting new rivalries, just because).

A week after the shakeup, three superstars who moved to Raw suddenly shifted back to SmackDown, just because. But Monday, we learned that the Good Brothers (Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson) moved over to Raw after a forgettable year on SmackDown – two weeks after the shakeup was supposed to have occurred.

It’s just p*ss-poor planning on WWE’s part, and it’s just ridiculous to see this sort of thing.
