The whole point is to create new, interesting match ups not move a storyline wholesale to another show. My interest in Seth on SD went through the floor knowing that the Murphy/Mysterios storyline is just going to continue.

100% this.
I said they should just go back to WWE lottery format, with the ping pong balls and tumbler thing.
The decisions to break up New Day and Heavy Machinery would be just as fucking stupid, but at least they would be logical in the lottery format of it being random.
Like seriously, why would Raw have the option to draft the entire New Day, and purposely say "well actually, we just want Kofi and Woods, but not the guy getting the best push of his career?" It's not like Raw doesn't have a 3 hour show to put on each week.
And if Big E is so terrible that you go out of your way to keep him off Raw, then why in the fuck would Smackdown use their VERY next pick to draft him.
Raw already indicated they didn't want him by specifically not drafting him. Why would Smackdown feel the need to pick him right away, when there is 0 danger that they will lose him to Raw?
The writers are either the stupidest assholes working in all of entertainment, or they think their fans are too dumb to realize that the shit they do makes no sense.
Either way, not one of them should be getting paid for their horrible writing.
