    I'm guessing Raw will get Theory and the US title

    Kayfabe why are guys like RVD deciding the draft picks ? Could they not nominate 2 legends to act as general managers. Definitely should bring back sole GM positions instead of having Adam Pearce do both

    They’re mimicking the nfl draft where the teams bring out old players to announce the next draft pick.

    I guess Bianca being drafted opens up the possibility of Iyo Sky beating her - oh wait she's drafted to Smackdown too😂

    Grayson seemed happy for Indi, breaking character there

    I'm glad he did because she was at the end and had no one else to celebrate with her as well as having trouble moving due to her injury, while Isla and Alba had each other at least.

    Was that everyone from NXT that was eligible? So Grayson won't be called up now. Since I don't think I saw Mello, Gallus or Bron there.

    The positive thing with the indi draft is that it could lead to another reunion of 'the way'

    I guess the thing with the Waller and Indo brace can be played down to the Oz connection so doesn't necessarily mean a break in character

    Alba and Isla was a strange one

    I'd say there'll be another two called up on Monday on RAW. Hoping for Cora Jade and Waller to be picked. Bron and Melo are knee deep in a feud so can't see either of them going up now even though heel Bron Breakker on the main roster could be really good.

    From looking on twitter LA Knight going to Raw getting a push better happen or riots 😄 which means Vince won't do then

    I think Waller against Edge could be good, maybe the one who retires Edge

    Alba and Isla was a strange one

    Alba Fyre has been TV good for at least 5 years, And She's basically completed NXT. I don't see as much upside in Isla but she complements Alba well.

    Sure they can forget about his main roster run like when Theory was with Rollins a few years back

    Alistair Black interrupting Big E but getting released the next week

    Good few more NXT call ups in the supplementary draft. JD McDonagh, Zoey Stark and Apollo Crews all to Raw, Von Wagner as a free agent along with Omos, MVP, Ziggler and Ali. Wonder what the free agency is about.

    Good to see Dexter and Indi are on the same brand, along with Candice, who wasn't paired with Johnny for some reason.

    Will JD interact with Finn?

    Von Wagner was a non starter in NXT. Not sure what they expect from him on the main roster. Though I seem to remember the likes of Elias not being very over on NXT but being better received on the main roster

    Von Wagner is a charisma vacuum,will never succeed on the main roster before eventually becoming a comedy act and released

    Is Brock and Cena still free agents?

    As a free agent has Ali got his release finally 😁

    I thought Chelsea Green was a free agent

    So essentially Ali, Ziggler and Vonwager are enhancement talent.

    I say they’ll be safe for a few months. Used to get over all the new pushed stars after the draft. I’ll be glad to see the back of Ziggler. He’s been booked beyond redemption.

    Grayson Waller did not look happy about those NXT call ups, his time may come Monday

    Don't think they're actually deciding, think they're just announcing.

    Waller did date Indi's mama 😁

    Corbin trending on twitter as got a good reaction in France, face Corbin could it work, loser Corbin was face sort of and is he the last person to pin Roman? Maybe build play off that

    How long has the "Woo" been back in the "Then, Now, Forever" opening? I just noticed it before Smackdown, but wasn't it taken away for a while? Or am I thinking of a differnt part of the opening?

    I forgot about Backlash. What an utterly pointless PPV. No world title match and a 6 man tag with match ups that have been done to death.

    Yep, even though it's been advertised, I'd forgotten as well. Something to watch on Sunday morning.

    I'd imagine SD in the O2 in June will be a similar layout in terms of the tron/ramp as tonights show

    Crowd was great for Smackdown, they'll be even hotter tonight. Karrion Kross's return has been an utter failure from the get go, beaten clean in the ring by Nakamura. Can't see him lasting too much longer tbh if there's any releases coming down the line
