Pope Corky the IX posted:My favorite moment in the draft is when Triple H got drafted to Raw and demanded to be traded back. Apparently Triple is worth two Dudley Boys and a Booker T. I like the story about umaga being happy to be drafted to smackdown, thinking he would be away from triple h. only for h to then get traded to smackdown.

You can watch this gif over and over and see someone doing something new each time. I love the guy in the bottom right who doesn’t know what to do with his hands and the woman in red in the back whipping her hair around like crazy.

Thanks for the explanations on the wwe draft. Seems like a concept that was good, but was abused and watered down too much. Really hoping that Rhea news is a work

It's a classic WWE comedy shot in that it goes on way too long and just ends up being awkward for everyone involved

OH some more Draft things I remembered they would constantly do: *Splitting up tag teams on a whim and then doing nothing with either person *Drafting both show's champions and making them awkwardly trade belts *Drafting people to one show on one night and then drafting them back to the original show the next night *Trading people away to the other brand for "Draft Considerations" aka literally nothing in return

How many tag teams got split in past drafts without either member being told in advance? I swear I've heard three or four different ones in stories.

Edit: found it, lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7_oYalLD6Y I also remember that one time Triple H got traded to Smackdown and then was back on Raw because he was traded back in exchange for 4 or 5 guys. edogawa rando fucked around with this message at 23:12 on Apr 15, 2024 |

(For some reason I thought RVD was included too but I don't think that's right)

Wasn't FOX also pissed off when they drafted Brock Lesnar to Smackdown and then the first week Brock showed up, squashed Kofi for the title, said "gently caress this dogshit show I'm going back to RAW" and took the belt with him?

It turns out they had a match for Eddie's WWE belt on Raw, which ended in a DQ in Eddie's favour. Reign of Terror HHH couldn't even put over the WWE champion in a match without shenanigans, for gently caress's sake.

The draft was the first step in breaking up the new day. One of the most over stables in wrestling history. They probably made them a shitload of money too but just had to break them up cause why not?

After they apparently declared they would leave if they were ever broken up, and then they proceeded to not do that so WWE was fine to just keep loving them over forever afterwards.

Tampa Bae posted:iirc that was the trade, and it was definitely the era where Vince would break up tag teams (because he hated them) and real life couples (because he thought it was funny) It felt like it mattered when they first started doing it, or at least it was cool when the Smackdown Six were having crazy matches.
