Drifter is injured, no?
Aries is shit, and is meant to be a Wrestling Grandpa down there to help have NXT people have experience folks to train with, same with that other Wrestling Grandpa Bobby Roode.
Rhyno is Wrestling Grandpa
Eric Young is trash
I have no answer for Bayley's omission. LMAO man, it's a funny, funny ass thing

Sorry man. I hate the oaf as well if it's any consolation.
I'm just being a fairweather wrasslin' fan and reading up about the draft - I take it they fucked up as per usual? Nia Jax's green ass - Raw, Bayley - hovering around Florida for longer? Gotta love those Rock family genes.
Are they creating a second world title? If not, how will they go about arranging interpromotional title matches?

Aeries and Roode are around AJ's age who was like the 4th pick. Age isn't a factor unless you're above 45

....this wouldn't be the worst.
Why can't this be his gimmick? The guy who doesn't care about the drama? Must be frustrating. Hopefully he keeps speaking his mind.
Seriously? Like nothing changed. They literally sent the talent they had nothing for in the larger brand to Tuesday nights. Raw has the best talent of the two, bar none and there is no real shaking things up.
I don't really get breaking up The Club because even though the name was stupid, they were building steam with this feud with Cena and Enzo and Cass.
As for the top picks, Raw got all the big money names, they got three undercard titles and a cruiserweight division which hasn't really been touched on.
Smackdown got AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose, John Cena and Randy Orton. That is the top of the Smackdown card. Styles and Ambrose would eventually get lost in the mid card shuffle again in the large brands and it feels like this younger talent have passed Cena and Orton by. They might put butts in the seats, but they strongly emphasized that Cena has a growing list of other commitments and Orton has been out for so long it would be difficult for him to get truly over, especially considering that Brock is going to squash him.
Don't even get me started on this announce team. Mauro, JBL and Otunga for Smackdown? Ugh. What happened to Lawler? He's been much better than JBL lately and has been a consistent heel. Raw also gets Corey Graves who is one of the best new announce talent in a while. Imagine if they had just gone with Graves and Mauro on Smackdown. That would potentially be the best commentary duo in a long time.
I'll see how this all pans out but damn, they didn't do Smackdown any favors. They're supposed to put together PPVs with this roster?
I... I'm surprisingly okay with this.... it's actually a good use of Big Show
Yup!

That'd be dope AND it lets Owens escape midcard hell.
Haha, oh god.
are you implying that a New Day feud isn't midcard hell

Big Show would be an equally good Fale.
Much better, the dynamic between him, Gallows & Anderson would be money. The promos oh my god (if they let them off the leash which is of course, like no.2 on the biggest issues that will never be solved in the WWE)
Browny's still by #1 draft pick.

And with NXT loosing graves, not only do both main roster shows suck, NXT looses one of their best assets.
This night basically made the entire product much poorer to the point where I don't want to watch any program by WWE.

I mean who are they gonna fight? Splitting the shallow roster between three shows and poor drafting kills the potential for interesting new feuds on every level.

What other teams were drafted to SD
Hopefully without the becoming less interesting part. And without the crappy road sign-themed attire. And without the crummy music.
Oh, Cesaro already has crummy music, though, so hopefully he gets new music. Just steal this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mPbroKfmtkE
Yeeeah!!

That wouldn't have happened with the real Jeremy Borash.

Because he would still be boring.
Aren't they bringing in more guys to Smackdown and RAW? Like, undrafted free agents and whatnot? Those can't be the complete rosters, right? I thought they were contacting a bunch of old-timers to come in? Is that not still happening?
I don't find him boring.

They've *gotta* just be holding onto her until Sunday, right? Have her debut as the Irish Lass Kicker's™ mystery partner? That's the only thing that makes sense to me.
EDIT: Sasha, not Becky. Duh.

I have found myself typing and deleting the term diva more than I'd like to, force of habit.
Are you suggesting that JBL might have one more match in him?!
SallyIsNow
Banned
Wait, Becky is the one looking for a partner? Isn't she in a 1 on 1?
No, I'm suggesting that someone likes how JBL calls Dean Ambrose as champ or potential champ and wants to keep them together.

Shit, you're right. It's Sasha with the mystery partner, right? I could fuck with Sasha and Bayley in a team-up.
