The SmackDown roster is more loaded now than Raw with the likes of Becky Lynch and Brock Lesnar returning.
Andrew Zarian from the Mat Men Pro Wrestling podcast noted today that executives at NBCUniversal, the parent company of the USA Network, which airs Raw, aren’t thrilled about this.
“There’s a little bit of an issue with NBC and the USA guys and the fact that this SmackDown roster is really stacked now.”
