Mr. McMahon to reveal the biggest acquisition in SmackDown LIVE history

The first night of the Superstar Shake-up was thrilling, to say the least. Although SmackDown LIVE is saying goodbye to Superstars like AJ Styles, The Miz, Rey Mysterio and Naomi, there is still plenty of intrigue as to who will be joining Team Blue.
The mystery has been heightened by Mr. McMahon, who will be revealing the biggest acquisition in SmackDown LIVE history tonight. Who has the WWE Chairman secured for the blue brand?

Who will join Team Blue in the Superstar Shake-up?

In addition to Mr. McMahon’s blockbuster announcement, there’s still the rest of the Superstar Shake-up to sort through. A slew of new faces will be showing up on Tuesday night, changing the landscape of SmackDown LIVE.
What new arrivals will make their presence felt tonight?

Who is Paige’s new tag team?

Last week, Paige revealed that not only has she been keeping an eye on WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The IIconics, but she’s also ready to unleash a new tag team of her own.

Just who does Paige have in her camp?

What’s next for WWE Champion Kofi Kingston?

WrestleMania is in the rear-view mirror. The celebrations are over. Now, the challenging part of being WWE Champion begins for Kofi Kingston.

The Dreadlocked Dynamo got a taste of it last week when The Bar & Drew McIntyre interrupted his celebration with a challenge for a Six-Man Tag Team Match. Kofi and The New Day emerged victorious, but what will happen when new challengers emerge to try and take the WWE Championship away from him?

Will any team step up to The Hardy Boyz?

The Hardy Boyz took a huge step forward on their quest to become the greatest tag team in all of time and space last week when they defeated The Usos to become SmackDown Tag Team Champions, which marked their eighth WWE tag team title.
With Raw and SmackDown LIVE being shaken up this week, could a new team arrive to stake their claim to The Hardys’ newly-won titles? Find out when the Superstar Shake-up continues on SmackDown LIVE, tonight at 8/7 C on USA Network!

Should get Drew McIntyre.

Vince gonna bring him out and we get Chosen One v2.0

 

[Sabretooth]

It's gotta be Roman, right?

I thought so too until it was pointed out in the shakeup thread that Brock would make more sense as the biggest acquisition in SD history. Could see Vince bringing him in to sick on Kofi as well with him not being happy about Kofi winning

People will freak out more than they did over a stupid name change.

I’m all for Kofi bumping for Brock for 8 minutes

 

[Deezy]

And Kofi won't have Big E to help him against The Beast if they actually did that.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Vince gonna bring him out and we get Chosen One v2.0

Only if we get this back...



then SmackDown might have won the shake-up (I'm exaggerating but god damn you know that would be sweet).

See, that would even make storyline sense. It's the natural next step in Vince not wanting Kofi to be his WWE Champion.

Yeah once you brought it up and i started thinking about it I really got sold on it, might be disappointed if he doesn't come over now :/
