The WWE Draft takes place tomorrow night on a special 3-hour edition of WWE RAW. WWE has promised to shake things up - here's the latest Draft news. Keep in mind that NONE of this stuff is confirmed:
-- The John Cena to SD! rumors continue to circulate among many backstage. This would be the 'big' shakeup. Keep in mind the Mickie James-John Cena storyline came to an abrupt end and they really want someone big as the main promotion when they move SD! to MyNetwork TV in the fall.
-- Much like previous years, WWE is keeping the draft very secretive, to the point that most all of the talent will find out if they're changing brands as soon as the audience does during the live show.
-- There has been some talk of moving the Women's Title to either ECW or Smackdown but no official decision has been made just yet. Vince feels that both of those brands need something to distinguish them from what RAW offers and the Women's Title just may be the answer to that.
-- JBL wanted to make his in-ring return on SD! several months back and he has Vince McMahon's ear. A move back to SD! for him would not shock me.
-- Brian Gewirtz is a huge fan of Santino with his comedy so don't expect him to leave.
The WWE Draft takes place tomorrow night on a special 3-hour edition of WWE RAW. WWE has promised to shake things up - here's the latest Draft news. Keep in mind that NONE of this stuff is confirmed:
-- Jamie Noble works as a backstage producer/agent on SD! so don't expect to see him move.
-- There could be something to Lance Cade appearing in the main event of RAW last week. There is talk that it could have been a setup to send him over to possibly ECW as a top heel.
-- There were rumblings that Randy Orton was a candidate to move to Smackdown before he broke his collarbone. And now there are rumblings that Batista could join him on RAW in a new Evolution faction that would likely feud with Triple H and Shawn Michaels.
-- Umaga is expected to be traded to SmackDown.
-- As stated on WWE RAW this week, The Undertaker will not be a part of the Draft.
-- Don't expect Triple H to go anywhere other than RAW.
-- Back in 2002, WWE did a live draft for television and a secondary draft with the results posted on the company website. A number of mid-level and lower-level wrestlers had to log on to the WWE site late at night after the draft to find out about their futures. It's expected that WWE will do something similar this year by announcing some of the trades on WWE.com after RAW as well as on ECW and SmackDown! later in the week.
