Here are the very latest details on WWE SmackDown going live and moving to Tuesday night’s starting on July 19th + the brand split and draft.

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that several people within the company seem to agree that there will be two World Titles again. Of course, the site notes that plans can and always do change.

The talk within the company at the Extreme Rules, RAW and SmackDown TV tapings this week was that each show will have their own World Title. Also, one show will have the United States Title while the other will have the Intercontinental Championship. As far as the Women’s Title is concerned, it is believed they are going to feature that title on one brand only, although that isn’t confirmed. The WWE tag-team titles are expected to be featured on both RAW and SmackDown.

As of now, the WWE Draft is tentatively scheduled to take place at the July 11th WWE RAW TV tapings in Detroit, Michigan. Nobody knows which brand they are going to wind up on at this point.

Vince McMahon is said to be “pumped up” about the brand extension and is “full of ideas” regarding it.

With the brand split, there is expected to be multiple NXT call-ups to fill the main rosters. WWE will also continue to aggressively pursue outside talent as they will have four tours (SmackDown, RAW and two NXT tours) during certain times.

The decision to do the brand split and take SmackDown live was made within the past several weeks. Many top talents first learned about the plans at Sunday night’s WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view event with the others finding out at the RAW and SmackDown TV tapings.
