Guys the draft isn't over yet.
There's still 3 more NXT picks plus the rest of the roster on the network at 10

If you think it isn't telling which picks get televised and which don't I don't know what to tell you.

 

[KissVibes]

Smackdown drafting Dean Ambrose makes perfect sense. They're the receding hairline show.

 

[985boi]

When are they streaming the rest of the draft? After this match is over?

 

[ElRenoRaven]

The draft made me go from wanting to just stick to one show, to not watch anything at all.

Guess I'm sticking to PPV only.

Yea. Both Shows really come out looking weak as fuck. My interest in WWE was already getting pretty damn low. Now it's pretty much none.

 

[Surge]

What a disappointment

I'll watch Raw for Balor though

 

[KingBroly]

Guys the draft isn't over yet.

The problem is they prioritized NIA JAX. FOR TELEVISION. OVER BAYLEY.

BAYLEY

 

[Brian_FETO]

One is the most over superstars in NXT. The other is the Rock's cousin.

It's obvious why they went with the Rock's cousin.

She's not like most girls

Most girls aren't Samoan

 

[spindashing]

The only thing I have an issue with is the female division on Smackdown. I guess I'll wait to see the other picks.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

But Liu Kang said Shinsuke was going to get drafted?!?!?

Liu Kang being utterly wrong about wrestling? This has never happened before!

 

[Kusagari]

I dunno, current TNA is pretty awful.

TNA has the wrestler of the year

 

[Seraphis Cain]

PiP in a nothing match.

No PiP in a championship match.

What.

 

[serenewarfare]

I don't think SD is nearly as doom and gloom as most think apparently, but it's clear Raw has the stronger roster, which should surprise no one.

 

[Skatterd]

If you think it isn't telling which picks get televised and which don't I don't know what to tell you.

Oh no you're absolutely right but if you're in might as well be in for the long run XD

If they aren't televised, then they're gonna be lower tier picks (not that Jax is a good pick) like Mojo or someone.

 

[z4chc3na]

Rollins whooping Ambrose in a smackdown shirt sums up this night pretty perfectly.

 

[darkside31337]

I'm actually a little surprised TNA moved to Thursday to avoid going head to head with this Smackdown roster.

I think its more surprising TNA still exists at all in 2016.

John Cena could wrestle a mop for 2 hours and it'd still be about 20 times more ratings than TNA.

 

[Officerrob]

This draft perfectly shows why the womens and tag divisions should not have been split

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Get ready for fuckin' Mojo on Raw, friends!

 

[chogidogs]

Don't even bother with new belts. nobody caaaaaaaaares!

 

[UberTag]

I love how American Alpha got called up to wrestle nobody.

The good tag teams are all on Raw.

They'll get a bunch of jobber teams to go over. Like the Vaudevillains. And the Dudleys.

TNA has the wrestler of the year

Wrestler of the year? No.
Feud of the year? Yes.

 

[funkystudent]

The problem is they prioritized NIA JAX. FOR TELEVISION. OVER BAYLEY.

BAYLEY

Bayley isn't related to the rock tho

 

[Xion385]

I feel like Bayley is going to get drafted on the WWE Network Special.

 

[Sephzilla]

I'm waiting for that Lui Kang meltdown since Nakamura didn't get picked

 

[Chamber]

AJ Styles lost big time tonight. My boy lost the Club and is doomed to get pinned by Cena, Orton and Ambrose for the next year.

 

[sf2fanatic]

We all know why Zigler got drafted by SD?


Reunite the Spirit Squad with Shane

 

[SallyIsNow]

I dunno, current TNA is pretty awful.

Broken Matt > SD

 

[oddjobs]

yeah, it's going to be guys like Dillinger, Mojo and maybe Drifter

 

[Intheflorsh]

Get ready for fuckin' Mojo on Raw, friends!

HYPED

 

[BoboBrazil]

Now you know better. Always expect to be disappointed and underwhelmed.

True. There is always a sliver of hope of something exciting though when they hype special events like this or night after Mania. Nothing changes with their horrible writing.

 

[notworksafe]

Fun draft! Smackdown is definitely the show to watch. Looking forward to see what they do with the roster.

 

[Anth0ny]

as per usual

this shit could be so much better. soooooo much better. all the talent is right there.

yet they continue to miss layups. again and again. there's a layup, and they fucking punt the basketball into the stands.

 

[SDBurton]

Rollins whooping Ambrose in a smackdown shirt sums up this night pretty perfectly.

LOL

 

[Ithil]

I don't think SD is nearly as doom and gloom as most think apparently, but it's clear Raw has the stronger roster, which should surprise no one.

Not just the better roster, but also has the Women's and Tag titles. Like what are Alpha or Becky meant to wrestle for on SD?

 

[KissVibes]

The problem is they prioritized NIA JAX. FOR TELEVISION. OVER BAYLEY.

BAYLEY

Bayley as a gimmick is DOA unless you get that after Mania crowd to help push her.

 

[esmith08734]

Terrible, man. Raw has the better talent by far. This won't last long.

 

[Toki767]

I'm waiting for that Lui Kang meltdown since Nakamura didn't get picked

He'll just play it off as gimmick posting.

 

[Heavy_D206]

I feel like Bayley is going to get drafted on the WWE Network Special.

Mystery Partner for Sasha at BG seems more likely.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

The only thing I have an issue with is the female division on Smackdown. I guess I'll wait to see the other picks.

What? I mean they're loaded. They have Becky Lynch and Natalya, and a broom, and a bucket, and um yea Becky Lynch, and Natalya.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

if bayley gets drafted on the fucking network show

i mean not even bayley but the fact smackdown has only two women currently and aa as the only tag team i think

 

[Aiii]

Get ready for fuckin' Mojo on Raw, friends!

Well it's obvious we're not getting Nak and they'll want Ryder/Mojo so yeah, there we go.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

I didn't expect this to be good and I was still disappointed

wow

 

[GunBR]

The problem is they prioritized NIA JAX. FOR TELEVISION. OVER BAYLEY.

BAYLEY

Nia is Rock's cousin, Bayley no

Bayley will end up on a 10 women tag match on the pre-show of 2017 Mania

Thank you.

See you soon.

Goodbye forever.

Is Luke Harper leaving WWE?

 

[Guzim]

Their ratings are going down, down, down.

Is this a Marcus Cor Von reference?

 

[Jimmy King]

Guys, Corbin and Ziggler are on the same show.

 

[darkside31337]

Smackdown has the better overall roster honestly. Although I don't think I can ever watch another Baron Corbin match so shrug

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Dillinger deserves a shot. He's managed to get a gimmick and get it over despite having zero openings to do so via booking.

 

[serenewarfare]

Not just the better roster, but also has the Women's and Tag titles. Like what are Alpha or Becky meant to wrestle for on SD?

New titles obviously. Same as whatever brand ends up without the WWE Title.

 

[sora87]

Literally stunned they ended the televised draft with that... trust wwe

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

So, about that logic Liu Kang was talking about earlier...he was working us, right?
