Oh, I forgot about that match - if you can call it a match.. It was a good match until they shut off the lights...

Ok here we go ,this post is pretty much no speculation/who I want to see move... but what is actually going to happen given rumors we've heard and such.
First of all let me say that since ECW will be traveling with Raw starting like within the next 2-3 weeks, expect some of the ECW guys who are frequently on SD! to make the permanent move. Also, expect ECW to get a bunch of mid card-low level talent from RAW (namely Super Crazy, Burchill, etc). The only guys who will pull double duty are Chavo/Neely, since they are not going to waste draft picks on getting La Familia on 1 show.
1. Umaga is going to SD!, we've been hearing this since like the royal rumble. Vince and everyone else has confirmed it. I suspect this will be the 1st pick.
2. Carlito is going to SD! It has been rumored in a few places I've looked. Santino is getting a bodyguard which means no more Carlito/Santino tag-team.
3. Miz and Morrison are going to SD!. With ECW traveling with Raw now it would be really difficult for the SD! tag champions to work "double duty". Also, with Night of Champions coming the Sunday following the draft there is no way they would be able to drop the belts to any team from SD! (even if someone gets drafted to SD!...how will they set up the feud/match 6 days before).
4. Cm Punk is probably going to SD!, since SD! needs faces and he still has beef with edge. His role on Raw would be severily diminished.
5. Mark Henry to Raw. There was talk about it in the past. HHH/Cena need some guys to chew up and spit out. He has fought EVERYONE on SD!.
6. MVP is coming to Raw. He's done everything on SD! except the world title which is occupied by Edge (and they aren't going to do heel vs heel).
7. Y2J isn't going anywhere! After his promo last night about defending the IC title every chance he gets its clear he is going to be holding it until atleast NOC (which is after the Draft). The only scenerio where he would be going to SD! is if he faces a RAW guy at NOC and loses, or he and Matt Hardy switch brands (ala the Batista/Cena swap of 05)
8. Trevor Murdock is leaving Raw. I've already read he is going to do his singing gimmick on another brand, while cade feuds with Jeff Hardy.
9. HBK and Undertaker are not moving. No explanation needed. Taker is the SD! leader and HBK is HHH's best friend.
10. I read at a few different places that they are moving the womens title to Smackdown!, so I wouldn't be suprised to see Beth, Melina, Mickie, and 1 other diva make the move to Smackdown! Believe it or not, but this switch could be the most drastic of the entire draft when you think about it.

Even the Umaga speculation is all just a matter of opinion. WWE has done and is still doing a great job of not letting anything OFFICIAL slip out about the draft. Just speculations and rumors.

I'd like to see Triple H off Raw, just for something different. I think they shound keep Cena on Raw, and have Edge feud him after they do the World Championship brand swap like they did in 2005.
I'm just realy eager for another Cena/Edge feud, just because I LOVED their 2006 one.

I Hope it Happens but i know it won't This Is My Fantasy/Prediction WWE Draft 2008 Based IMO 1.CM Punk-Mr.Mitb should go to RAW To Feud with New People. I don't Want Him To Switch Brands but he has to since he's PUSH Maybe Feud Chris Jericho?HHH? 2.Rey Mysterio-The Biggest Little Man Is returning Soon time to start a New Life in he's New Brand since After Feuding W/Chavo He Should Maybe Feud With HHH,Orton. 3.Elijah Burke-This Atheltic Young Talent should be get a Big Heel Push Feud With HHH,HBK and Kennedy.Since He's Just Jobbing In ECW 4.Undertaker-Since "UNDERTAKER"is Dead Should he get a HEEL Turn?Gimmick Change?or Switch Brands have an Awesome Feud With HBK and HHH Maybe Till Wrestlemania. But If He Doesn't Move. Maybe MVP-Deserves to Move and FEUD with HBK and other ppl. 5.Natalya Neidhart-I See She Can Be the New Women's Champ Feuding with Beth and Mickie and maybe Candice.And Since there's Gonna Be a Team of 3rd Generation Superstars. Ted Dibiase Jr. and [INSERT NAME HERE hopefully Teddy Hart vut most likely it will be him.] Team She Should Be the The Diva in the Faction if theres gonna be one. 1.Chris Jericho-Smackdown Has a only a FEW Top Stars.There's like a Lot of Heels a Few Face.so Yeah Need Y2J Back in SD! Face Edge for the WHC. 2.Jeff Hardy-I Really Want Him SD! Cuz He'Needs to start all over again since he's mommentum has been stop in RAW.it Should Be Awesome If He Feuds With Brother Matt Hardy for the US Title.Cuz the Us title Isn't That Valuable anymore.so WWE should Fix that.or Maybe Feud With Edge for WHC.Or Just maybe the Hardyz Reunion again and Capture the WWE Tag Team Championship again and become a 8-time tag team champion 3.John Cena-Not Liking the Revival of the Cena/JBL Feud.I Miss the Old Cena/JBL Feud it was cool.but now it isn't.maybe a Brand Change Should Do Maybe Feud With Show or Something or MVP. I want the Vanilla Ice/Hip Hop/Poser/ChainGang Gimmick Back 4.Lance Cade-Time For a New Rising Heel To Come To he's New Home.Maybe a Push? 5.William Regal-Since he Got Suspended he Shoud Get Punished and go to the "2nd Rated Show" and maybe still have the big heel push. 6.Obviously UMAGA. 1.Charlie Haas-He Needs to Move to This Brand and Change He's Gimmick again to a maybe "Extreme Kurt Angle Gimmick" Using he's Haas of Pain he's Dangerous Weapon and Maybe a New Deadly Finisher.or maybe Just WGTT Reunion?but its too late Benjamin is a Rising Star and Haas is still a Jobber. Im a Haas Fan so I Hope He Gets Draft.Most Likely He Will Get Fired...After the Draft but hope not 2.Gregory Helms-I want Him To be in ECW or RAW but Most Likely He Will Be IN RAW.I Want him to start all over again.forget the "Im moving up the Heavyweight Division Gimmick"He Would Have Great Feuds With Kingston,Morrison,Benjamin and others 3.Carlito-Not Doing Anything That Much in RAW Just Being A Jobber. Not a "Cool"Tag Team Anymore since he's Partner got Arrested Should Be Awesome Kingston and Carlito Feud or maybe team mates.Carlito Vs Benjamin Again.Morrison and Carlito.And Maybe Become the ECW CHAMP for he's Debut. 4. D-Lo Brown-I Know He's Signed But I want him to Make he's Return and Be In ECW to make himself a mid-carder to main eventer.or something like that.i really don't see him in RAW or SD!.That's What I think.Trevor Murdoch-This Singing Sensation Maybe Needs to Go in ECW and Become a Jobber Yay!.LOL and plus we need more stars in ECW 5.Chuck Palumbo or Ashely or Super Crazy or Big Show- Maybe We Need a New Diva,A New Comer,An Ecw Original or a Former ECW Champion.here in ECW.Most Likely Getting Released cept Big Show IMO. So That's My Fantasy/Prediction Draft what do you guys think? .tHE ONE.

I wouldn't be so sure about the Umaga thing because I remember the whole plan was for him to go over and have a feud with The Undertaker, but that ain't really happening. I still think Umaga is going to SD but the rumors also stated a Umaga/Taker feud. So i don't think it's confirmed, it's still speculation.
I have some feeling that HBK is going to SD for some reason, I think the whole Batista feud was a way to test him out over there and he may want to work a more laid back schedule there ain't that much left for him on Raw anyway besides a JBL feud that he hasn't done before, plus SD is moving networks and HBK could help in getting as much fans as possible over to the new network, HBK/Edge, HBK/MVP (if MVP stays on SD) as well as some potential other ones as well.

I just think the whole Draft is pretty pointless at this point. I mean, some of the wrestlers are going where-ever they please for no reason at all. Santino Marella (a Raw guy) just had a match with Cousin Sal on SmackDown.
If he's on Raw, then what the hell is he doing wrestling over on SmackDown?? It just makes the whole Draft and separation between brands pretty damn pointless if you ask me.

Im going out on a limb and going to say the HHH and Edge switch opponents at NOC. Cena to SD! to face Edge, and Batista to Raw to face HHH. It would be cool. I just have a feeling their going to do something to mix up the title matches at NOC. I think Cena and Batista will switch though.

Anyone think D'Lo will be part of the draft? ummmmm no? Dont make dumb posts like that just cuz your a D'lo mark, of course he wont be in the draft, unless he debuts befor which i dont see happening. I really dont understand why they rehired him. I was a fan but he was never a huge star, and theres really nothing left for him besides jobbing.

-Batista (From SmackDown!) : Fresh new face on Raw, new battles and some old ones (With JBL and Triple H) -Jesse and Festus (From SmackDown!) : Fresh new Tag Team who hasnt faced any of the Tag teams on Raw. Not doing anything on SmackDown! anyway -Mark Henry (From SmackDown!) : Triple H needs a big heel guy to beat. Need opponet for the Intercontinental Championship - Rey Mysterio (From SmackDown!) : Needs a change of scene. A bunch of new fueds that could made from this. -CM Punk (from ECW) : Replace Cena, could challenge for WWE Championship later -Chris Jericho (From Raw) : Smack Down! needs new faces fast. -Shawn Michaels (From Raw) : Same as Jericho. Also imagin another Undertaker/Shawn Michaels fued, Edge/HBK, Morrison/HBK, etc. -John Morrison (from ECW) : Could be a great challenger for the United States Championship. Possibley World Heavyweight down the line. -Elijah Burke (From ECW) : Same as Morrison. Needs a new change of scenery -Shelton Benjamin (From ECW)/Charlie Haas (From Raw) : bring back WGTT and actually push them to be Tag Team Championship. Hell even add Burke in - Brian Kendrick and Paul London (From Raw) : Tag Team Divison needs to be saved -Randy Orton (From Raw) : Would actually look somewhat credible, new fresh heel on Smack Down! -John Cena (From Raw) : ECW needs a Huge Face bad, more so than Kane and CM Punk. Could bring ratings with all his fans -Umaga (from Raw) : Fits within ECW, Needs a change of scenery -Trevor Murdoch (From Raw) : Could challenge for ECW Title Later -Big Show (From Smack Down!) - Turn him heel and you have a nice fued with Cena or Kane. Figure him face and fueds with Umaga come into play -Vladimir Kozlov (From Smack Down!) - Another heel, a brand new fresh ECW Championship challenger Now think of the new fueds : HHH/ vs Batista, Mark Henry, CM Punk, Mysterio Batista/ vs Henry, Punk, Hardy Mysterio/ vs Punk, HHH, Kennedy, Hardy Cena/ vs Show, Umaga, Kozlov, Kane Show/ vs Kozlov, Umaga, Kane Edge/ vs HBK, Jericho Undertaker/ vs HBK, Jericho, Orton Londrick, WGTT for the Tag team Championship with DnD, Hawkins and Ryder Defend the Womens championship, possibley even the World Tag Team Championship tri-branded. No ECW vs Raw or ECW vs SD! until Pay Per Views and the WWE would be more worth watching

I'd like Cena to go to ECW.
With HHH dominating Raw, Cena really needs to go to ECW or SD to give them a much needed boost.
