WWE Makes Key Roster Changes Across RAW and SmackDown

WWE has made new roster moves across RAW and SmackDown. Royce Keys and Solo Sikoa have been transferred to Monday Night Raw, and OTM, the team of Bronco Nima and Lucien Price, is now also listed internally as part of the red brand.

According to False Finish, all three are officially on Raw’s internal roster. Keys and Sikoa are brand transfers, while Nima and Price are call-ups from NXT.

OTM’s main roster move had already played out on television. Bronco Nima and Lucien Price made their RAW debut on August 24, appearing alongside Royce Keys and attacking The Usos, LA Knight, and Solo Sikoa to close the show.

On this week’s RAW, the group took things further. Keys, Nima, and Price jumped Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso in the parking lot, prompting Jacob Fatu to declare war on the trio.

Meanwhile, SmackDown picked up reinforcements of its own. Randy Orton and Kevin Owens returned at SummerSlam and quickly slotted back into major storylines on the blue brand. Owens came back after more than a year out with a serious neck injury, while Orton resumed his rivalry with Cody Rhodes.

WWE has not publicly announced any of these moves through a Draft. The changes have only been reflected on the company’s internal roster.
