WWE Draft Pool and Rules

[Zombie Mod]

so seth gets drafted to smackdown friday night, then the mysterio's on the monday night?

[Perd]

Ricochet’s gonna be drafted to SD and have to pretend to be sad to leave Apollo behind.

[Bang Bang Bart]

The mental image of an anti-WWE faction being draft eligible and USA and Fox execs competing to have them on their show has become really hilarious.

It goes both ways. Everyone else has to pretend to be sad Ricochet is leaving.

The whole thing was so embarrassing and nonsensical last time with the celebrating executives. I hope it at least brings some funny gifs.

Last year's one was probably the worst executed one so far. Can't wait for this one. LOL.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

Do you think they have the executives wear different outfits each day this time?

God, I miss the old style of draft of just, "Interbrand matches, winning brand gets a roulette graphic then a person comes out and does some poses." Vastly more interesting than this drawn-out faux-sports bullshit. Hell, even the Shakeup was better than this crap.

Honestly, is it too much to ask to have this back?



Rather than this?

I mean... Cleatus being there and people treating him like he actually exists is pretty great >_>

So, uh... who's not eligible for the draft? I know there are injured people, but we likely have a few healthy scratches, as well.

The only thing that I appreciated about the draft last year was that the executives for NBC were actually executives in the company for divisions that would associate with WWE.

The FOX ones seem to have been actors, though.

Can't wait for them to turn my favorite show Smackdown into garbage...

[4real]

Please don’t do it like last year’s that was terrible.

I don’t want to know about guys who are staying on their particular brand. Just people that are moving. That’s it. None of this “Seth Rollins has been drafted to Raw!” rubbish.

I was tempted to find a gif of the USA team because not having a CG robot really made their side look more sad and boring but I couldn't resist the robot.

The USA war room celebrating Natalya being picked like they got Stone Cold was pretty hilarious.

[Kalmia]

The Draft. The only time of the year when you miss having GMs for each show because a figurehead like that making picks makes way more sense than a robot.

Looking it up... Bo Dallas, Mojo Rawley and The Forgotten Sons are healthy talents not thrown in for selection.

Make it even more like a real draft and have everyone eligible sitting around in suits at tables with friends and family, waiting to get drafted. I want them to keep cutting to a table where Dabba-Kato is sitting there, waiting to get drafted, while Shane, Seven Foot Tall Bodyguard Guy, and the missing Raw Underground Dancers are sitting at his table, telling him "you're next, they're picking you next for sure!"

Also, first pick on Night 2 should be Slapjack. Just Slapjack, by himself.

I mean clearly Hollywood Slapjack is the number one pick.

At least they have the lists in alphabetical order and not the order that they will be drafted in like last year. After everyone was tweeting about it, then they changed the order around.
