    The one thing I found funny about it is you had the two wrestlers, the two GMs and the two McMahons all arguing in the ring and nobody was checking up on the ref who is laying in the corner.

    So I thought Bayley would've been out to save Sasha last night after it was mentioned Sasha's "got it covered."

    Perhaps Sasha gets another beatdown tonight, and Bayley makes the save ... after which, Daniel Bryan comes out and announces Bayley is the next draft pick for Smackdown.

    Bunch of old WWE/F wrestlers suing for concussions. Includes Superfly, Orndorff and Road Warrior Animal, along with both Hebners and both Chavos.

    Yeah, I just saw that list. Some of them may have legit gripes, but Mantaur? How many matches in the WWF did he have?

    And Sabu? Of all the places he wrestled, WWE was the tamest. Unless he thinks he can blame McMahon for what happened in ECW since he bought (?) the company.

    If you were Foley or D-Bry, who are you taking with your first pick?

    No. 1 has to be Seth Rollins, with Dean going to Smackdown at No. 2.

    So if Raw gets two picks to every one for Smackdown, will it go Raw-Raw-Smackdown, Raw-Raw-Smackdown, or will it be Raw-Smackdown-Raw, Raw-Smackdown-Raw? If Raw gets its first two before Smackdown, I could see them taking Rollins and Ambrose. And then Bryan shocks the world with Finn Balor as Smackdown's first pick.

    Looking forward to tonight's draft, just to see what happens.

    UFC announced that Lesnar was notified of a second positive drug test.

    Hmmmmm.

    This is a really mediocre format.....the guys aren't coming out? We're waiting another 6 days to see Balor in a main roster ring?

    Barf.

    I wonder if the wrestlers actually know in advance about their selections. The first couple of years, they weren't told, because the E wanted to get their natural reaction, and some of them were quite nervous because it would affect their schedules. And infamously, Jim Ross was drafted to Smackdown and was majorly pissed off on air.
