    Quite enjoyed watching RAW live......until that last pick. Christ. The cynic was like "he still won't miss an hour of RAW, being fired didn't stop him" but wow, he couldn't even last the night.

    I'm glad Orton is off my show and Sin Cara gets to retake his entrance if necessary. The ending really left a sour taste in my mouth as I was banging on about it all RAW :(

    Does Del Rio going make Mark Henry the top heel on Smackdown? Because that's a horrible thought. They need to get Sheamus or Punk over there quickly or start pushing Swagger. Christian is all but guaranteed to win the title now.

    Yea since Christian will win the WHC , hopefully they dont go down a feud with Orton where Orton beats him at the next PPV

    Rhodes is brillant as a heel on SD hope he stays there and is given a world title push - Orton works better as a heel imo

    I would love to see a Punk/Christian feud

    Not exactly happy about the draft but if they have the main event scene of Cody/Orton/Christian on Smackdown for the forseeable future then things might get interesting again. Plus with a revitalised Jack Swagger in the mix there really is some potential for Smackdown there. Until next year that is when Raw eventually pillages them of at least 2 of the above.

    Time for Mark Henry's annual failed push!

    I knew Cena would be back on Raw pretty quickly. Plus when they kept putting up the drafted guys on the Draft graphic, I kinda guessed one might get drafted twice. No way would Cena leave Raw and there is no way Orton and Cena can stay on the same show.

    Overall I thought the draft was OK. Interesting to see the supplemental draft. It's at 12:00 p.m. EST on WWE's website.

    Raw was OK overall. Not great but alright. At least Punk will get a new feud now.

    The whole idea of having matches to decide draft picks is ridiculous. At least Mark Henry's actions made sense.. why would he win a match if it will result in added competition for him? It looks like he may be lined up for a shot at Christian's title. A Rhodes/Orton feud has plenty of potential.

    Raw has been left very heel heavy with Punk, del Rio, Miz, Sheamus, R-Truth and Dolph all now competing to job to Cena. I wouldn't be surprised to see Sheamus or Dolph moved in the supplemental draft.

    I thought this when the Smackdown guys were cheering when they got Orton and Cena; why would that make them happy? Two new big names at the top of the card makes their job harder, since it means less chance to get up the card. I GUESS it could be argued they have better competition or that bigger names means their show becomes better meaning they get more money...

    He's good but I don't think he's a main event heel at the moment.

    Maybe but he can be a believable main eventer and given the WHC placement on a usual PPV card he may not be main eventing. He could fit a temporary need as a heel main eventer on SD and could go up a against Christian after Del Rio is gone and before a new heel emrges, wether that is through being built up (McIntyre for example) or a heel turn (Orton for example, though i'd doubt it at this point... he will be SD's main face) or someone who comes via the suplemental draft maybe and is then built up.

    Wasn't last night an inversion of last year's draft? Where Smackdown was left with virtually zero in the way of top faces?

    Not surprised, and delighted for him. SD might be a better place for him, and it's probably going to motivate me to watch the Friday night show now...

    A decent feud with Barrett for the IC title would be great for both Bryan and Wade
