Draft is making sense

A draft is the last thing WWE needs at the minute. Especially when creative is in chaos.

The draft doesn't even matter anymore. It has felt pointless for years and doesn't carry the same hype as the first few they did.

Knew it’d be the draft. Unfortunately the draft hasn’t meant anything for years because it’s rarely enforced. I remember thinking holy crapwhen Raw invaded SmackDown leading up to Survivor Series 2005 because you never saw people on the opposing brand. Nowadays it’s just normal.

I could see this working with; - a few NXT call ups
- a stricter "stay on your show" policy that doesn't need to be mentioned every episode for the following 6 weeks after said draft and that's only broken for PLE's when they share the building (obviously)
- lastly but not least if they draft one of the major titles to a brand opposite Roman or have one main title permanently pinned (I guess?) to each brand and then draft him off that show lol. Keeps him strong, it would upset people bc he "never lost it" and it would let us get a fighting champion that has time to show up for his passion and the fans. It checks all their boxes.
Idc how they do it just make it happen. |

they need to split the world and tag titles if they’re going to do a draft

If they do that though, that might not make sense if they're doing a draft and are promoting roster exclusivity. |

"Congratulations, you've been drafted to RAW."
"Oh, OK. Thanks."
"By the way, we've got you booked for a segment on SmackDown this week, see you there."

they need to split the world and tag titles if they’re going to do a draft There aren't enough tag teams for 2 sets of tag belts and 1 World title gives it prestige. You also cannot deny that since the World title merge the IC and US belts have been treated more importantly. IMO the World and tag champs should appear on both shows, it makes holding them titles feel more special. |

IMO the World and tag champs should appear on both shows, it makes holding them titles feel more special. The only problem is that if Roman is going to continue to be champion forever, he can’t be essentially exclusive to smackdown, appear maybe 2 times a month, and only wrestle 5 matches a year. If there is going to continue to be only one World Champion, he needs to be on BOTH Raw and Smackdown, and he needs to be ACTIVE. If Roman is going to be Champ forever, then just have him be Smackdown Champion, create another belt for RAW and give it to Cody and let’s just move on. |

Smackdown, Raw, and NXT.   I think I could learn to love this again. |

If Roman Reigns was wrestling full time, Gunther and Theory would be in less prominent spots. |

I bet they’ll swap the women’s champs and hopefully the mid card champs too
