Intercontinental Champion Finn Balor Is The First RAW Superstar To Join SMACKDOWN In The SHAKE-UP

It looks like Finn Balor was indeed teasing a jump to SmackDown LIVE with his blue tights on Raw last night, as the current Intercontinental Champion was the first to be drafted in tonight's Shake-Up...

Finn Balor is now a member of the SmackDown LIVE roster, and that means the blue brand will also feature the Intercontinental Championship moving forward.

Balor has been a staple of the Raw roster ever since moving up from NXT, so this is a pretty big deal.

His first match was an exciting back-and-forth encounter with Ali, which Finn ultimately won after a Coup de Gras.

Usually in the Superstar Shake-Up, if the IC Title switches brands the The United States Championship follows suit, so there's a chance Samoa Joe will wind up back on Raw when all is said and done - unless he loses it in the meantime, that is.

What do you guys think about Finn Balor joining SmackDown LIVE?
