WWE kicked things off in Baltimore by getting right down to business. Big E and Roman Reigns were the first two men chosen to Raw and SmackDown respectively. Then they shocked the world by drafting Raw Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair to SmackDown and Bianca Belair went to Raw.
Hit Row and Austin Theory were also called up from NXT. We’ll have to see how they affect their brands.
The changes in the 2021 WWE Draft won’t go into effect until after WWE Crown Jewel. The networks already know who they will get on their programs, but WWE has a trip to Saudi Arabia to promote first.
