the menacing monster and winning the World Heavyweight Championship, Khali has slipped comfortably into the role of big friendly giant. With a man of his stature and limited in ring skills his appearances have more impact when they are spread thin and not overexposed. After a loss to Dolph Ziggler weeks ago on SmackDown, Khali and his handler Ranjin Singh announced that the big man would be returning to India for a stay in order to recharge. When he does return it will be to the live brand where he will most likely be used sparingly in comedy segments. Plus putting him on RAW will keep him away from the company’s other giant, The Big Show.
Chavo Guerrero (from
SmackDown to RAW)
Last year Chavo moved to RAW, which was seen as a good sign so that he could be next to his aunt Vickie Guerrero. Since then he has
been embarrassed at every turn by RAW’s celebrity guest hosts and the diminutive Hornswoggle. A move to SmackDown should be a good thing for Chavo. He can’t get any worse than he was on RAW. He will be away from the RAW guest hosts and be back with his aunt Vickie, who again is back in power on SmackDown.
Cody Rhodes (from RAW to SmackDown)
This is another move I pegged to happen from the onset. After Legacy imploded at WrestleMania XXVI it was obvious that one of the three would have to leave the RAW brand. And with Rhodes coming out of the feud with the least upward momentum it seemed logical he would be the one to move to the blue brand. On SmackDown Rhodes will be able start anew and rebuild himself away from his old cohorts.
natalya neidhart (from SmackDown to RAW)
Natalya is the manager of the new Unified WWE World Tag Team Champions The Hart Dynasty and thus can travel to any show they choose in order
to defend the Tag
Championships. So this move was more of a clerical one than anything else as it gives Natalya (and The Harts) a home base once they inevitably lose the Tag Championships. She also brings something new to the Divas division on RAW and provides fresh match-ups for the women of the division, including Eve, Gail Kim, Jillian Hall and Maryse.
Chris Masters (from RAW to SmackDown)
Since Masters returned to WWE in July 2009 he
has done absolutely nothing of note. Upon his re- turn he resumed his old gimmick as t h e p r ima donna Mas- t e r p i e c e and rein-
troduced The Masterlock Challenge. Then dur- ing the Ozzy and Sharon Osborne hosted episode of RAW, Masters displayed his talent of making his muscled pecs “dance” and thus he was transformed into a comedy character. This new trait led to a brief push as a good guy and the services of Eve Torres as a valet, but the push all but evaporated in the build up to WrestleMania XXVI and he hasn’t been seen since. While a move to SmackDown could help revitalise his career I personally don’t expect much of a change for Masters, only a new crew of wrestlers to lose to.
