Raw’s McIntyre to Face SmackDown’s Corbin Next Week in Brand Crossover

It looks like some form of WWE’s “wild card” rule is back.

Raw’s Drew McIntyre announced tonight on Raw that he will face SmackDown’s King Corbin next week on Raw as part of a new “brand to brand invitation.”

No other details were given about the apparent new wild card rule.

It was reported earlier today that WWE will begin having wrestlers crossover onto different brands again in a limited manner, at the request of their TV network partners amid all-time low ratings. The crossovers are expected to be kept at a minimum for now.
