The 2018 Superstar Shake-Up is almost here. WWE stars will be switching brands on both RAW and Smackdown Live this week. Here is a collection of the rumors that are floating around about the Superstar Shake-Up.
– The first rumor that circulated this week was that Asuka is likely to move to the Smackdown roster.
– A report suggests that pretty much the entire Smackdown roster will be backstage at RAW for the Shake-Up.
– We here at IWNerd.com noted a change in the NXT banner on WWE’s website. Andrade Almas and Drew McIntyre were both removed from the banner, which could be a hint that they are heading to the main roster. Update: Drew has apparently been spotted in Hartford before RAW tonight:
Interesting Monday Night Raw tonight. A majority of the Smackdown roster will be in town, including some surprises. NXT star Drew McIntyre is in Hartford. No idea if he’s getting the call up or not. Personally, I’d throw him on the Smackdown brand but we’ll see.

– SANITY has also been mentioned in rumors about potential call-ups from NXT.

– Big Cass is reportedly cleared to return to action. We have to think that he will either return to RAW or move to Smackdown this week.
– There is some speculation that Charlotte could be moving to RAW. This is due to the rumors of Charlotte vs Ronda Rousey being planned for Wrestlemania 35 next year. This isn’t anything concrete though and more guesswork.
