Yeah, she was the one from the Diver Search.

Bring Kelly Kelly to SmackDown!

RGWhat316 06-25-2008 02:48 PM

LOL

Corey Clayton - Mike Adamle to Sci Fi Ghost Hunters?

Mr. Nerfect 06-25-2008 02:48 PM

I think they'll pop out two biggish moves. MVP and Chavo Guerrero, are my guesses. Or dare I go a little off the deep-end and suggest Chris Jericho?

Mr. Nerfect 06-25-2008 02:49 PM

Layla is probably padding.

James Steele 06-25-2008 02:50 PM

I demand that King Leonidus go to the LAND OF EXTREME.

Mr. Nerfect 06-25-2008 02:50 PM

It would be pretty awesome if John Cena was the last pick.

RGWhat316 06-25-2008 02:50 PM

Ive posted 5-6 times on their blog, and only 1 actually got posted.

King Leonidas: THIS IS SPARTA!

Colin Delaney: ...Oh shit.

RGWhat316 06-25-2008 02:52 PM

I guess only 1 more pick, right at 3 pm.

Sepholio 06-25-2008 02:56 PM

Wow, is smackdown becoming the A-show now or something? RAW is getting raped today lol

Definitely. I would've prefered to have seen him on RAW (since I watch RAW), but I'm happy that he's on one of the "main shows."

Since I only have time to watch one show per week, I'm seriously considering "drafting myself to Smackdown" as a wrestling fan.

Smackdown just got a HELLUVA lot more interesting within the past week IMO.

For me - Kane, Batista, Rey Mysterio, CM Punk, and (I can't even remember the other guy) just don't "do it" for me.

I was thinking the same thing.

With the WWE Management's heavy bias towards Triple H, I wouldn't completely rule it out.

If D'Lo Brown debuts on Smackdown, I myself am defecting to Smackdown as a fan (I can only watch 1 show per week).

The only thing that MIGHT hold me back, is the fact that Santino Marella is my favourite WWE character (one of my favourites in WWE(F) history).

Evil Vito 06-25-2008 03:00 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Kofi to Raw</font>

RGWhat316 06-25-2008 03:00 PM

Kofi to RAW. ECW gets screwed again.

Linkbowler 06-25-2008 03:00 PM

JAMAICA ME CRAZY

Mr. Nerfect 06-25-2008 03:01 PM

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

JAMAICAN COLE CRAZY!

I see a JBL/Kofi feud coming.

Heyman 06-25-2008 03:02 PM

Is this draft taking place on TV, or just on WWE.com?

Innovator 06-25-2008 03:02 PM

AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA What the fuck is left of ECW?

Mr. Nerfect 06-25-2008 03:02 PM

Heyman, can't you just YouTube Santino's stuff?

Evil Vito 06-25-2008 03:03 PM

<font color=goldenrod>They have yet to announce if thats it or what......I can see them doing 2 more picks because that would make it an even 30 for the entire draft.

-edit-

Nevermind, it's over</font>

RGWhat316 06-25-2008 03:04 PM

Besides Evan Bourne and Finlay, not too much on ECW now.

RGWhat316 06-25-2008 03:04 PM

On the blog, they said 17th and final pick.

I guess I could.

The only problem with that however, is I'll already know beforehand what I'm You-tubbing? (i.e. If Santino does something hilarious on RAW, I'll already know about it...and would just be looking it up).

The "shock factor" of seeing Santino doing something hilarious live, would be gone.

I hope Santino goes to Smackdown. :::fingers crossed:::: If so, bye bye RAW for me. :wave:

Hey, I am still happy that they've got John Morrison, The Miz and Elijah Burke.

RGWhat316 06-25-2008 03:06 PM

Almost forgot about Elijah. Maybe he'll actually be on tv now.

Evil Vito 06-25-2008 03:06 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Final tally:

Raw: Lost 11, gained 11
SD: Lost 10, gained 12
ECW: Lost 7, gained 5</font>

Mr. Nerfect 06-25-2008 03:08 PM

So that's it? Some of it is a bit surprising, but it sort of makes sense. Kofi Kingston and Matt Striker getting moved remove some ECW talent that helped consist ECW, yes, but can now go towards the flailing mid-cards of other brands.

The CyNick 06-25-2008 03:09 PM

Batista and Rey needed to be moved. They have fought everyone on SD.

So far, this has been the best draft they have ever done IMO. They really evened up the rosters (not counting ECW) and they switched the top guys to create fresh match ups.

You can only see combinations of Edge, Undertaker and Batista so many times. Same goes for HHH, HBK, Orton and Cena on RAW. Added one or two new faces makes everything seem fresh.

The other thing is that with the joint PPVs these days, the only guys that really matter money wise are the top guys on each show. So it was clear they needed to shake up the top matches on each show. I think they did that this week.

ECW losing two might actually be a good thing. It could mean that Elijah Burke gets on television and that Colt Cabana gets called up.

Sepholio 06-25-2008 03:17 PM

This blows, I was hoping HHH went back to RAW >_<

Now Cena headlines the only show I watch. This is GARBAGE. RAW got molested here, plain and simple.

Mr. Nerfect 06-25-2008 03:23 PM

RAW still has the best program in the WWE.

The CyNick 06-25-2008 03:25 PM

Yeah RAW is still more stacked, but shockingly as HHH goes to SD, the playing field is as even as its been in quite some time.

So...it makes you have a reason to watch SD? What a concept...for the WWE to acknowledge that there ARE other shows in this brand extension other than RAW.

Well...at least they acknowledged that ONE other show existed.

WTF NO MARIA ON RAW

Rob 06-25-2008 04:05 PM

Did Carlito get drafted?

Yes, he joins his BFF Triple H on Smackdown.

Frankly, unless TJ Wilson is brought up, I bet they forgot their plans of a 2nd Generation stable when they moved DH</font> :o

Nah, he's just playing the role of Jerry Lynn during the Alliance InVasion.

I read on a recent news report that ECW was going to merge with one of the major brands anyways (sometime in the fall).

Heck - if ECW disbands, perhaps they can have yet another draft to see which brands get what ECW talent.
