Anyone have any draft predictions? I'm guessing Hornswoggle gets drafted since he has been moved in every draft.
Also you think the WWE tries to coordinate their drafts when the NFL has theirs?

Also you think the WWE tries to coordinate their drafts when the NFL has theirs? No. This year's was supposed to be in June b/c of Tough Enough, but it got bumped up earlier because of Edge. I think in the past its just coincidence it happens around the time of the NFL Draft as the WWE Draft is usually a few weeks after Mania. Now that the overseas tour is over, it'll be interesting to see if there are any releases as well this week. As for predictions, this year its tough to call for the most part. They always make some headscratching moves. I think Orton will go to Smackdown, and Im hoping that Swagger nor Rey does not come to Raw. I also wouldnt be surprised if that rumored champion switch is done (Miz to SD, ADR or Christian to Raw). |

R-Truth for Cody Rhodes,
Cody has ended his angle on SD, and R-Truth has just undergone character development.
At least one Corre member to Raw, given the implosion that just happened on Friday, if all 4 stayed on the same show, it would just be a 4 way feud. My guess is Barret for Sheamus, to once again switch the midcard belts.

I have a feeling McIntyre will be drafted not supplemental but drafted to Raw to once again try to get us to care
Riley drafted away from the Miz, can see the face reactions already.
Ryder to Smackdown, maybe they will give him some tv time

One of Laycool is heading to Raw.
I'm feeling Cody getting sent to Raw too
Daniel Bryan to Smackdown seems a safe bet.
So does at least one member of the Corre heading to Raw.
I'd like to see Barrett and Sheamus swap shows actually. Cause I'm a fan of having the WWE and IC titles on the same show and the WH and US titles on the same show. Plus I feel Barrett would do better on Raw again and Sheamus would do better on Smackdown

Smackdown will lose great, young heels and gain crappy Raw faces.

I'd like to see the Intercontinetal and United States titles swap places again. They don't feel right where they are.
I think there could be a few conjoined drafts (ie. if Alberto moves he'll bring Brodus Clay with him, if Wade moves he'll take some of the Corre) and, as it happens every year, some will get drafted in the Supplemental draft and never appear on their new brand.
RAW to SmackDown!
Daniel Bryan
Mark Henry
Randy Orton
Sheamus
Supplemental Draft
Alicia Fox
David Hart Smith (Future Endeavored before debut)
Ted DiBiase
The Great Khali
Tyson Kidd
Vladimir Kozlov (Future Endeavored before debut)
Smackdown! to RAW
Alberto Del Rio (w/ Ricardo & Brodus Clay)
Cody Rhodes
Drew McIntyre
Jack Swagger
Michelle McCool
Wade Barrett
Supplemental Draft
Beth Phoenix
Chris Masters
Layla
Tyler Reks (Future Endeavored before debut)

I'd really like to see Cena go to Smackdown. I think that's the only real shocker they could do..however, I don't see that happening, ever.
I have a feeling that Orton, Bourne and Bryan are going to the blue brand (or at least, I'm telling myself that).

I have 2 major predictions for the televised portions of the draft
1) BOTH New Nexus and The Corre will lose at least 1 member to the draft
2) Sin Cara will move to Smackdown so they can edit his botches out of matches while he adjusts to the WWE style before moving him back, probably in next year's draft. Because of Cara going to Smackdown, Mysterio will be shipped over to Raw.

I'll just do the RAW part.
I'll say since it's only 2 hours they'll have 6 match total. A coule long, a squash or 2 and then some 7 minute or so matches, plus the Battle Royal for 2 Picks.
From SD! To RAW:
Cody Rhodes
Jack Swagger
Alberto Del Rio
From RAW To SD!:
R-Truth
John Morrison
Battle Royal (SD! Wins)
Pick 1: Sheamus
Pick 2: Randy Orton
So at Extreme Rule Del Rio wins, which means RAW has both World Titles. So after Extreme Rules Teddy Long trades Kofi Kingston & The Undertaker or just Taker for Alberto Del Rio. So when Taker comes back he's on RAW same show with Triple H even though nowadays that really doesn't matter lol

The main thing I'm wondering, is there the annual SmackDown rape or will they come off the better of the two for once?

The main thing I'm wondering, is there the annual SmackDown rape or will they come off the better of the two for once? It looks like it might be pretty good for Smackdown. Cody looks like he's probably going to Raw, but Truth and Morrison both stick out like sore thumbs on Raw, so they both might end up going to Smackdown. I can't really imagine Raw taking in that many guys since they just plain don't have any room for them. Miz, Punk, Sheamus and Ziggler crowd the heel side and Cena, Orton and Sin Cara don't give any room for a major face to come in. I also wouldn't be surprised if Daniel Bryan went to Smackdown too. It seems as though the well for him to do things on Raw has run dry, and he'd complement Smackdown's style very nicely. |

I think the draft show will be more or less uneventful and the show won't be very good. Look for the Corre to lose a member to Raw (probably Zeke) and Beth to go to Raw to help the terrible Divas division (and probably go after Cole when he tries to crap on her match) and a major star, probably Orton, to go to Smackdown and take Edge's place since they won't bother pushing Christian very much.
The Supplimental draft is usually were the real changes are made so I like to pay attention to that
