Big E could be making his way to the red brand in two month’s time.

WWE surprised fans last year when they split up one of the most popular factions of all time, The New Day. In a shock move, Stephanie McMahon announced during the WWE Draft that Big E would move to SmackDown, putting the group on separate brands for the first time since they came together in 2014.

Since their break-up, Big E has held the Intercontinental Championship, whereas Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston have gone on to make the team 11-time WWE Tag Team Champions. The group has made several appearances together on television, due to WWE pay-per-views being multi-branded.

We could soon see The New Day back on the same brand though, as WrestleVotes reports that there has been an idea brought up to have Big E move over to Raw in the WWE Draft, which is reportedly scheduled for the week after SummerSlam this year. I

It was noted that the group would essentially be back together without being a team, as Big E would continue his singles run into the Raw main event scene.

Bobby Lashley is set to defend his WWE Championship against Kofi Kingston a Money In The Bank later this month, so it’s certainly possible that Big E moves to Raw after SummerSlam to challenge for the WWE Championship. Raw is also short on Superstars for its main event scene, so Big E’s move would be welcomed by the red brand.
