The “Superstar Shake-Up” began last night (April 10) on Monday Night Raw, sending 11 wrestlers -and one announcer - from the SmackDown Live roster to the Raw roster. Tonight, we’ll learn who’s going the other way, so there’s still plenty of whispers about potential moves, which means there’s still time for us to break out a special edition of the Rumor Roundup!
The usual disclaimers apply.
Important reminder: Rumors are just that -- rumors. None of this has been confirmed as legitimate news or fact, it's just circulating around the pro wrestling rumor mill. Remember, take it all with a grain of salt.
Superstar Shake-Up Rumors:
- Charlotte Flair seems like a lock for SmackDown, and it’s looking like Sasha Banks will join her.
