The undrafted talent has to know it’s over.
Usos
Naomi
Luke
Cesaro
Dana
Iconics
Lana
All of them should start working podcasts or set up YouTube channels to occupy their time.
Iconics could go back NXT.
Usos it’s over. Jey messed their money up with dui . Haven’t been on tv since July.
They have nothing to do but collect checks which is better than no checks.
The IIconics are safe because there are enough people in the back who like them. As for the draft it's been reported that they really didn't want to do one, which is why you didn't see much movement. Anyone who has followed the draft since 02 knows that SD always gets shafted, but they always wind up being the better show.

Why would they not want to do a draft? Whatever they better leave it alone for a few years, these brand splits allow new stars to be created. No more force feeding one top guy

There were reports during the last Superstar Shakeup that Fox wanted latino latinx superstars on Smackdown, but aside from Cain and I guess Bayley, they're all on Raw.

Is Fox gonna push the shyt out of Lucha House Party? :mjlol:

They screwed up raw with all these mid card dudes.:leostare:

Raw literally has everyone possible, and they’re a 3 hour hour:dead:im gonna give you credit though, you’ve been firmly running with this extreme Raw-homer gimmick for 3 years now :salute:no wavering despite being wrong quite a bit, very presidential-like:jbhmm:

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
I really had hope that wwe was on cruise control til the fox premiere and then they would step up

between the fox premiere and the draft I’m more down on wwe than ever. They had a great opportunity with the draft to right the ship and instead we get more head scratching stupidity.

It’s incredibly disappointing... I’ll keep up but nxt is my favorite right now

These next few weeks will truly show what they have planned. They really couldn't do anything because of the premiere and the draft, but now they can actually focus on the shows themselves now. I expect RAW to stall out fairly quickly, and SD will be the more cohesive show.

How are they supposed to build the Rollins/Fiend match at Crown Jewel when they are on different shows?

That's so stupid to make that match. Things probably won't change until after that crapfest.
