WOR notes
  • Carmella and R-Truth were broken up because USA wanted the 24/7 title (since it was their idea)- but since Carmella is dating Corey Graves, they had to put Carmella on Smackdown.
  • Paul Heyman got "all of his guys" (except Brock) and "Smackdown got the leftovers" (Dave's words).
  • Humberto Carillo is set to be groomed as the next generation Hispanic star.
  • Paul Heyman is very high on Buddy Murphy- more than anyone else, Dave assumed he would go to RAW for Heyman. He also mentioned Heyman really wanting Aleister Black.
  • The Miz going to Smackdown was a change, Dave speculates because of the leaks.
  • Eric Bischoff is high on Baron Corbin.
  • Luke Harper wasn't drafted. Dave doesn't know why, but mentions there were only storylines planned for Harper until the tag match at Hell in a Cell.
  • Dave doesn't know why they put Rey Mysterio on a separate brand to Cain Velasquez.
  • Dave was surprised Gable wasn't drafted to RAW.
  • AoP are going to be on RAW, despite not being drafted, per Meltzer.
  • Meltzer noted that RAW is loaded up with great workers who aren't over- so Heyman's goal is to now get these guys over (guys like Murphy, Alexander, Tozawa etc).
  • Meltzer says that they weren't intending to do another draft before the FOX move- the rosters for RAW and Smackdown were going to be what they were after the Superstar Shake-up in April. Says he doesn't know why that changed. Says it was most likely due to popping a rating, hence the minimal changes.
