Oh, 5 more before the main event. Good stuff.

Everyone forgot about Neville.

Neville will be great for the Cruiserweight division

Natty Vs. Becky Continues

SD women's division Becky and Nattie just fighting each other forever

FUCK!

The rules they set probably played a role since no real surprises outside of who from NXT gets picked.

Would be pretty dumb to split tag teams when the division needs them and RAW getting more picks meant the draft had to favor it a bit more.

Thought Cesar007 would go to Smackdown

Raw is basically the show everyone wanted to be Smackdown.

I like Del Rio to Smackdown, they are stacked in my opinion.

Smackdown used their picks on Natalya and Del Rio.

Okay.

The League of Nations explode

Del Rio is a nice rebound from missing out on Cesaro.

jobber picks now

RAW all about change and new blood!

Can only assume the Sheamus pick comes bundled with Erick Rowan.

Did not notice Steph's ridiculous Raw dress until now. A+

Smackdown really "not looking good"..... Think they need even more people from NXT to bolster their roster..... are they allowed to just call more people up once the draft is over?

Okay, those last 3 SmackDown picks were really uninspiring. Here's hoping Ziggler and Del Rio can somehow become interesting again.

Can't wait for next year's draft..

Going to laugh if they do another screwy draw finish since it doesn't matter which brand has the champ till Battlegrounds.

I would like to see Del Rio turn face and Ziggler turn heel....

I feel like RAW has a much stronger roster than SmackDown

somethings never change...

I think 6 NXT call ups between the 2 shows. Jax, Balor, American Alpha already taken.

Smackdown is fine, they have all the top stars and have the IC title. Tag division is going to be weak though.

Can't imagine any of the big NXT names like Bayley, Joe, Nakamura, Aries, etc. would have fallen to the untelevised portion of the draft. So it's probably gonna be people like Mojo Rawley.

Still expecting to see Bayley as Sasha's mystery partner.

yeah I wish Cena and American Alpha were on RAW b/c my trend of not watching SD will prob continue.

I'll give it a chance next week to be fair

tna ad

Thought that for sure Cesaro, Kevin Owens, and Rusev would be on Smackdown.....

How SD has the face of the company in Cena, the internet darling in AJ Styles, everyone's favorite lunatic in Ambose, and RKOs. Raw looks weak to me with the exception of the tag division and Kevin Owens.

Still feels like a Friday to me cause Smackdown is on. Havent really watched it since it moved back to Thursday.

"Smackdown drafts Sweet T:

Everyone I've heard cut a promo on the network has killed it

Big Show, Sheamoose and Del Rio get televised draft picks is the biggest shock.

Going to assume it will be like with the rumored former wrestlers getting hired that they just show up on a brand in the future. Maybe Shane or Steph makes an announcement about new hires whenever it happens.

Mauro, I like your commentary, but you can't call the "poster boy of the Authority" anti-establishment. C'mon man.

Plus the fact raw drafted a beyond part timer in lesnar, and eventual part timer in Jericho. IMO smackdown killed it in this draft.

Been watching Big Show's first legit run as WCW Champion in the early Nitros/NWO starters. He like defended the belt every week it seemed.

Kane is crying somewhere

Benoit went 3rd to Sd in 02
Cena went 3rd to SD tonight

Feel like they have to. More shenanigans and and Rollins can claim to be Champion going in to Battleground but really Dean is. Dean pins Reigns so Rollins still claims to be Champion and is awarded a new title. Or could go the other way around and have amRollins screw Ambrose he is awarded a title on SD.

American Alpha on the WWE Network rn.

This whole show feels like déjà vu...in other words another SD! episode that's just one big disappointment.

This

I really don't think SmackDown's roster is that bad even if the last two picks did nothing for me. I'll give it a chance.

This just in: Smackdown drafts a Sponge

Like guy in front row's Kaientai shirt.....

Magistral cradle reference! Haven't heard that in forever! Mauro Ranallo should have been the first pick overall!

Ambrose won clean

Squeaky clean.

Been a great Smackdown Live. Bound to be a few disappointments with everyone moving around. All in all I'm satisfied with how it turned out.

I wonder who will get the outcasts they will probly be last pick

Ambrose wins!

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THIS SUNDAY?!

Good for Dean Ambrose.

Smackdown totally won the Tv part of the Draft. Let's see what happens on the Network.

Damn

Ambrose is droppin' that belt on Sunday

Smackdown draft likes shit but still has the belt.

So sick

Can't wait to see John Cena feud with talent he's never feuded with before like Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt

Tonight's finish makes last night's look even dumber. Should have just done one title match instead this week.

To be fair, they didn't draft Big Show and Nia Jax, so you're probably right.

"Look out, because I'm coming" - Nia Jax on WWE Network

Fine speech.

Even if the last three SmackDown picks did nothing for me, I really don't think they made out all that badly. Cena and Orton (when healthy) are still going to get the biggest reactions of anybody on the roster, good or bad. Ambrose has been getting great reactions too for quite some time. And of course Styles is excellent.

I do wish their midcard was a bit more fleshed out. One of Zayn/Owens/Cesaro would have really helped to add another workhorse.

But people like Lesnar and Jericho going to Raw certainly doesn't bother me. I never expected Lesnar to ever be on anything other than Raw the few times a year he shows up on television. And Jericho is meh at this point but is also gonna be a part-timer before long.

:lol: Maruo got cut off mid sentence to end the show.

K, anyone else watching WWE Network for the other 30 draft picks? Here we go

I have turned to it..... Lita looking fine....

Rollins wins Sunday and decides he wants to head to Smackdown with the belt. USA is taking on extra production costs for a live product/extra marketing...

so scratch all of that. Vince logic..Roman wins Sunday.

Time for them to get as high as they can

You rang?

Draft Corey Graves to the announce team instead of Byron Saxton please

Decent draft show for tv but still don't understand why they didn't do all the NXT picks on tv. Doesn't really benefit the WWE nor NXT for the unannounced picks to not be on tv.

RAW's roster is stronger right now but mostly because of the extra picks and exlucive cruiserweight division.

THE EVOLUTION ERA?

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/WPZcSX7SdPg?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Didn't even recognize Neville.... face looks totally different.....

Looks a lot "slimmer" maybe....

"Frive on opportunity" - Neville

I wonder if the Brock drug thing will him in WWE at all

Seriously interested in the eventual Dean Ambrose/AJ Styles feud.

Less talkin' more draftin' please

RAW picks Golden Truth

Smackdown picks The Usos

God damnit. The Usos on Smackdown too? Dying here.

RAW picks Titus O'Neil

Golden Truth to RAW

Smackdown won that draft with some great picks. The only one I'd take back would be Corbin but he does have potential.

Booker T's reaction: "AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW URAH URAH URAH!"

Smackdown picks The Demon Kane

RAW picks Paige

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/o5bFrmzoLOc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Feel like Paige really needed to be on Smackdown.... who the hell is left in the women's division for them to get..... feel bad for Becky now.....

Helps a weak tag division. I like this pick. Not sure why people don't like the Usos.

supplemental draft sends KANE to SD

Or maybe Vince wanted to break up Paige/Alberto Del Rio

RAW:
Golden Truth
Titus O'Neil
Paige

Smackdown:
Usos
Kane

Women's division got stronger for RAW.

I used to :heart: The Usos when everyone hated them.... they didn't recapture their magic after they came back from their hiatus.... Hopefully they can get some of their magic back with American Alpha to work against....

Settle your tea kettle, Nattie

Is Cesaro really a 9 time Tag Team Champion?

As little sense as it would make for Bayley or Asuka to not be drafted earlier...SmackDown needs one or both of them to salvage a division.

This is so weird. I should be asking a very important question right about now. Don't like this one bit.
