The best woman in the world is heading to Smackdown Live. For the past year and a half, Charlotte has been the most consistent woman on the roster. Now, she is going to take her talents to Tuesday nights, giving the fans fresh rivalries. We did not get to see TOO much of Becky Lynch and Charlotte, so that can easily get us 3-5 months. With Naomi, Carmella and Tamina entering the fray, there are more opportunities for Charlotte to bring out the best in everyone else.

I am excited to see a few matches between Charlotte and Naomi. It will really show the fans if Naomi is for real, or if she has limitations to a few athletic moves and her glow gimmick. Charlotte does not need an over-aggressive gimmick to get over. She is playing herself and that helps everyone else be able to take risks on their creativity. Charlotte to Smackdown means they just became the deepest women’s roster on the show. Aside from Alexa Bliss on WWE RAW, Smackdown Live gets the game changer. Good decision.

Pushing Tye and Mojo

With the superstar shakeup, Tye Dillinger and Mojo Rawley are getting opportunites to pick up some wins and start to create their path to a potential championship. Neither will be world champions, but neither need to. Tye Dillinger has the fans behind him, a gimmick that works and an overall likable personality. His hard work, desire and connection with the crowd would make him for a perfect mid-card feud with guys like Dolph Ziggler, potentially Kevin Owens or even Baron Corbin.

As for Mojo, he better thank his lucky stars Rob Gronkowski has been around for the past few weeks. WWE loves NFL players, especially excellent ones. I have nothing against Mojo, but the fans do. They see a guy who is over hyped and who’s energy is a negative thing. I can understand why they think it is forced, but it seems to just be his real personality. It will be interesting to see how he is built and who he faces over the next 2-3 months. I feel they are going to give him every opportunity to succeed.
