I’ve thought an interesting sport parallel they could use (since they love using sport parallels with their drafts) is that the draft is an exclusive NXT callup night. Do it after Stand and Deliver or whenever, and have each brand get five draft picks for NXT talent. You can also have GM’s agree on trades throughout the night. It can also be used to send people down to NXT. If you are unused on your roster, you can head to NXT to prove yourself to the brands and then enter the draft pool to hopefully get a higher spot.

I honestly wish WWE would start referring to matches like Cody vs. Carmelo as non-title matches. They just spent the last couple weeks setting up AJ as the number one contender. He literally comes to the ring to sign a contract for the match and not ten minutes later Cody gives a shot to a guy on his first night in. What you've done in the process is both delegitimize your AJ story and made Carmelo wear a t-shirt that reads "I'm not winning tonight". WWE has a tendency to just avoid referring to these matches as a for the title. I think it would actually benefit the show by telling the audience this match is not for the belt. That way we can credibly believe that maybe Carmelo could score an upset win here and earn himself a proper shot down the road. Basically, creating the room for doubt is far better than having no doubt at all.

The ear bud audio drives me nuts. Love ya Fightful❤

To the Fightful Moderator who monitors these comments, please forward this message to Kate: I dunno if Kate uses Wi-Fi (i.e. connects wirelessly to the router)? If so, I would start by using LAN instead of Wi-Fi. Get a long LAN cable & connect your PC/laptop straight to the router. This would determine whether the issue is caused by Wi-Fi issues or whether it is a problem with Kate's Internet service provider.

I love fightful wrestling! The only show worth watching for wrestling news. Plus I love Kate!! More Kate please!!!

The draft was crap, why triple h puts himself front and centre still is strange. Draft is predictable and looks like just looking for ratings, ratings have certainly dipped aswell. Boring show.

WWE is getting really boring now
