WWE Draft 2023: 10 Roster Trades That MUST Happen

4. Sami Zayn (SmackDown > Raw)

Kevin Owens either comes from Raw > SmackDown or Sami Zayn goes in the opposite direction, and it's time. It's time, people. It. Is. Time. Sami's run on Fridays has been sensational stuff, but he needs a change and the best thing to do is put him on Monday nights exclusively for a while.

It'd be nice to see Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows (where are they?!) show back up to take the fight to KO and Zayn for a while. Similarly, the new Undisputed Tag Team Champs would work brilliant battles vs. Alpha Academy or The Street Profits if that suits WWE better.

There are real worries that WWE will take the tag straps off Kev and Sami due to the fact they won't travel to Saudi for Night Of Champions. That'd be a shame, 'cause they're only just getting started in the title hot seat(s) and deserve a longer run.

Nah, prolong the title reign and do so on Raw.
