I'm trading:

Carmella (SD) for Paige (Raw)

I wouldn't have called Carmella up in the first place because Enzo & Cass are doing their own thing right now and should get some more reps in on the main roster before they add another new dynamic to their gimmick, but if you're gonna bring her up it doesn't make sense to not pair her up with Enzo & Cass. On the flip side, Paige should be the top heel diva on SD, especially when Raw already has Charlotte & Nia now, and when Natalya isn't over enough or even that good of a heel to be carrying that role

Kalisto (SD) for Darren Young (Raw)

Kalisto should be the face of Raw's cruiserweight division (another thing I would have preferred to be on SD) along with Neville. Meanwhile, have Miz drop the IC title to DY this Sunday (which at this point seems like the logical progression of DY's current gimmick and storyline), which leads to my next trade

The Miz (SD) for Sasha Banks (Raw)

Miz drops title to DY, leaving the IC belt on Smackdown. Becky is not over enough to carry the SD women's division and it doesn't make sense to have your top 2 women on one show (Charlotte & Sasha). Only issue here is there's not much for The Miz to do on Raw and I'm actually liking him right now w/ Maryse and the title

Eva Marie (SD) for Jack Swagger (Raw)

It doesn't make any sense kayfabe wise why Shane & Bryan would pick Eva Marie, and it doesn't make any sense shoot wise because Eva's entire character and look (red hair, diva-ish personality) fits on Raw over Smackdown. Meanwhile I feel like Jack Swagger would fit better as enhancement talent on SD over Raw, and there could be some interesting interactions down the line with Swagger & Alpha

Becky Lynch (SD) for Cesaro (Raw)

Replace Becky as the top SD face diva with Sasha, and replace Sasha as the top Raw face diva with Becky. Bayley is revealed as Sasha's partner this Sunday, countering the Charlotte/Nia/Becky trio on Raw with Sasha/Bayley/Paige (please push Naomi too) on Smackdown. SD gets the upper midcard/possible main event workhorse talent that they desperately need. With the addition of Sasha, Bayley, and Cesaro, there's a heel/face discrepancy on Smackdown so I'd turn Ambrose heel (what they should have done like 6 months ago)

Wyatt and Rowan for Gallows and Anderson.

I don't think Stroman is ready to be on his own and The Club was one of the best things they had going so I'm not sure why they split them up.

Thinking they are shaking things up but really fukking things up. Instead of separating a team like the Uso's or the Dudleys they separate cats who havent even ran their couse as a group or team yet.
