Those aren’t the only names that Smackdown as acquired, though. PWInsider reported that former Smackdown Women’s Champion, Naomi has been quietly shifted from Monday Night RAW to the SmackDown brand, following the Money In The Bank pay-per-view.

PWInsider also confirmed that RAW star, Mandy Rose has officially migrated back to NXT, after appearing on last week’s episode. Rose emerged on the entrance stage during last week’s episode of NXT in the midst of Sarray and Gigi Dolin’s matchup, as she looked on eagerly.

While Mandy Rose has reportedly moved back to the black-and-gold brand, Aliyah has seemingly moved up to Monday Night RAW. Last week, Aliyah attacked Robert Stone on NXT, after she and Jessi Kamea had failed to defeat Kayden Carter and Kacy Catanzaro. Aliyah had also worked a dark match before last week’s Smackdown against Xia Li. Only time will tell when Aliyah will officially be seen on main roster television, but her turn on the Robert Stone Brand and dark match appearance looks indicative of a callup.

One Spot Remains In ROH’s Women’s Championship Tournament

After unveiling the official brackets for Ring of Honor’s upcoming Women’s Tournament, one spot was still unconfirmed. This past week of ROH television, Quinn McKay vied for the last spot in the tournament, in an intense bout with The Allure’s Mandy Leon. McKay would ultimately fall short to Leon, however. This loss means that one spot is still open in ROH’s Women’s Championship Tournament.

With Ring of Honor scheduled to begin filming this tournament at the end of July, it will be interesting to see who fills it. Chelsea Green recently arrived at ROH’s Best in the World pay-per-view, but confirmed she will not be competing in the tournament due to injury, leaving viewers to speculate who could possibly round out this tournament.

WrestleZone will keep you updated as more details become available.
