Coming as a shock to no one, it has been confirmed that Rey Mysterio will be moving back to SmackDown during tonight’s live WWE Draft on Monday Night Raw.
This has been talked about for several weeks as the company believes he can help improve the ratings for the Hispanic demographic on Friday Night SmackDown — which have fallen since his departure from the brand last year. Also, Mysterio did nothing to improve the ratings for the Hispanic demo on Raw — all the more reason he is being moved back to SmackDown.
Considering Mysterio is the Intercontinental Champion, United States Champion MVP will be shifted over to Raw to fill his place as the brand’s secondary title holder.
