The WWE Draft is an annual event that sees the WWE Superstars from both the RAW and SmackDown brands being chosen by their respective General Managers to join their team. The event typically takes place in the latter half of the year and lasts for two nights, with each night featuring several rounds of picks.
What is WWE Draft?
The purpose of the draft is to create a sense of competition between the two brands and to give the WWE Universe something to look forward to in terms of fresh match-ups and storylines. It also helps to shake up the rosters and give Superstars new opportunities to shine.
Changes in WWE Draft
In recent years, the WWE Draft has undergone a few changes. For example, in 2019, the draft was presented as more of a “pool” system, where both Raw and SmackDown could select from a shared pool of Superstars. Additionally, the draft has also been used to introduce new Superstars to the main roster, such as NXT call-ups.
Overall, the WWE Draft is an exciting event for both the WWE Superstars and the fans. It allows for new opportunities and fresh rivalries, and can even lead to unexpected twists and turns in the world of professional wrestling.
What should fans expect from WWE Draft 2023?
WWE fans can expect many twists during the WWE Draft 2023. There are rumours that the Head of Creativity, Triple H might be tempted to break up a tag team. This tag team could be the duo of Otis and Chad Gable. Along with a break up of a tag team, a piece of great news is also on the cards for WWE fans around the world.
WWE fans will be treated by the return of one of the fan favourites, Big-E. Big-E can be expected to reunite with his teammates, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods. Big-E was last seen in action in March 2022 when he suffered a neck injury. It would be great to see whether the trio remains together after the Draft or not.
Stars from NXT could also get a lot of benefits from the Draft. Mustafa Ali, Dana Brooke and Nikki Cross are some of the names who are expected to join WWE from NXT.
