NXT’s Role In Upcoming WWE Draft Revealed

Yesterday, WWE officially confirmed the return of the Draft for the Smackdown and Raw shows on October 11 and 14 respectively.

It has been previously reported that large changes should not be expected in the upcoming draft. However, it was believed that NXT would also be included.

However, Triple H revealed during a recent call with the media that the draft will focus on giving Raw and Smackdown separate rosters, not NXT.

Becky Lynch has been featured in a lot of the promotional material for Smackdown’s move to FOX. This has led some to speculate that “The Man” might drop the Raw Women’s Championship and move to the blue brand soon.

Thanks to Sean Ross Sapp and Ryan Satin for the tweets.
