Big moves are in store for WWE in the new year, as the company shakes things up across its flagship brands. With Raw heading back to three hours and SmackDown also extending to three hours, the ongoing transfer window is creating chatter about who’s heading where—and it looks like American Made is on the move.
According to WrestleVotes Radio, Chad Gable, the Creed Brothers (Brutus and Julius), and Ivy Nile are set to leave Raw for SmackDown as 2025 kicks off.
“Our last little nugget here is we are told to expect American Made to shift over to SmackDown during the New Year,” WrestleVotes shared. “There’s a lot of optimism within the company for all members of the group. The feeling is that placing younger talents like the Creed Brothers and Ivy Nile on SmackDown, especially with the move to three hours, could really help them shine.”
As for Chad Gable, the Alpha Academy standout is reportedly viewed as a key mid-to-upper-level talent in WWE’s creative plans, which could mean even bigger opportunities for him on SmackDown.
Ivy Nile’s inclusion in American Made added another layer to the faction’s storylines in 2024. She turned heads in August when she joined the group by turning heel and ambushing Maxxine Dupri on Raw. Her interference in the Creed Brothers’ match against Otis and Tozawa set the tone for her new role, which has only grown since.
The transfer window continues to add intrigue to WWE’s evolving landscape, and fans are eager to see how American Made fares under the bright lights of SmackDown. With Gable leading the way and the Creed Brothers and Nile poised for breakout moments, the blue brand could be the perfect stage for this powerhouse faction.
