I'm not too keen, tbh. I think there is much more entertainment when the brands are competing for draft picks, rather than just receiving them alternately. I see what you mean, but I'm just used to seeing the matches now, with the Draft Lottery taking place years ago.

WTF are you talking about? Raw and Smackdown! are in it. I don't know if you think ECW is still around...Or people from NXT will be drafted...But it's Raw/SD!.

Either way works. The problem with the Draft Lottery is voth shows will get unnecessary Superstars, but the problem with the current system is that one show usually gets one or two more Superstars than the other.
After seeing the cons, I'd rather have one show lose out on a pick or two to have a better Draft star-power wise, so the current way is fine with me.

Yeah, I like the matches and so on, just the way the picks are picked.

Id like to see all Superstars drafted. Brand lines dropped and each & every person drafted to Raw or SD!. Thats a true shake up.

I might be understanding your post wrong, but if everybody switched brands, wouldn't that just be like the same show on a different night? Meaning, the current Raw Roster would move to SD! and the SD! roster to Raw? Or do you mean everybody becomes a free agent and goes to different shows, and a current Raw Superstar could still wind up on Raw?

Nothing will ever top CM Punk's feigned enthusiasm about winning the match to get Boogeyman drafted to ECW.

I hate how obviously fixed the new 'Draft' is, so I'd love that.

One thing I don't like about the last three Drafts is that (mainly because of ECW being a part of it), there is never an even amount of picks for each brand. I know that's the whole point of competing for picks... but it's just crap if RAW gets 5, then SmackDown gets 3 and ECW gets 2 or something.
With ECW gone now, I think they should revert back to getting 5 picks each on the night, then maybe a main event match that gives one brand the edge, with an extra draft picks or 2.
In my opinion it was just confusing watching people move from ECW, SmackDown and RAW and there were like 10 moves on the night the last 3 years. Let's keep it simple, moving near enough everyone is just boring. It's like RAW and SmackDown have swapped nights. 2005 was the best Draft, because there were just 5 changes on each brand... big, interesting changes.

I would not mind it that much. 2002 was great but I also like the Raw v SD matches for the draft picks.

It should be completly random, no storyline draft just randomness so no one knows whos switching next.

I think it should be done as a random 2004-esq lottery and then perhaps the two participants selected from each brand go to the ring, for a match and the winner's brand gets to pick first, in the next round of picks. Perfect. Showcases the moving Superstars, and keeps the competitive element in a way. I agree with this totally.

What I'd like is to EVERYBODY who is getting drafted to be shown entirely on RAW. None of this supplemental draft bullsh*t. I mean the RAW is gonna be 3 freaking hours, there's no reason for them not to show everybody getting drafted.

My only problem with the current Draft style is the damn noise it makes while it shuffles through the roster. It sounds like an 80's video game.
