WWE Draft 2020: 10 Wrestlers Who Must NOT Move Brands

4. AJ Styles

AJ Styles has already executed some brand-hopping of his own this year as, following his excellent Boneyard Match with The Undertaker (and the time off TV that came with that defeat), he moved from Raw to SmackDown. That move brought with it great things for 'The Face That Runs This Place' as he immediately found himself in an Intercontinental Championship tournament that ultimately led him to gold.

AJ returning to Raw would be awful for the blue brand. It goes without saying that Styles will flourish wherever he ends up, but SmackDown was in dire need of the star power when he showed up and returned some legitimacy to the Intercontinental Championship.

Not only would moving him back to Raw so soon result in an inevitable stretch of similar storylines for him, it would also leave SmackDown without a major star whose presence it had greatly benefited from.
