WWE Draft Analysis: Predictions Are More Than You May Think...

Correspondent Written on March 28, 2009

So people have been giving WrestleMania predictions? I give one better. Draft predictions.

The Draft is one week after WrestleMania, allowing to get a spark rating until Judgement Day, which delievers the worst ratings of the year. The Draft should last this WWE Recession out, and if I can tell my part, you'll see why we'll get out.

When people say out with the old, in with the new; this year is the other way around.

There are going to be two parts to this article; Actual Draft Predictions, and what I want to happen.

My Predictions for this year’s Draft:

Last year, Raw was basically handed Rey Mysterio, Batista, and Kane, CM Punk, and Kofi Kingston. Edge and Orton stayed where they were, Triple H was headed to SmackDown for a “short time”, and Matt Hardy was en route to ECW.

Kennedy was supposed to be on SmackDown, but his year was wasted due to being out.

First Pick: William Regal to ECW

This has been flying around just about everywhere, along with Kennedy going to ECW. I don’t believe that Kennedy would even want to go, considering that he’s ready for a Main-Event run or upper mid-card run.

Regal’s got the veteran touch that ECW needs; a guy who can get a job done, get heel heat, and still not Main-Event.

Regal would probably be put in a feud with Tommy Dreamer: Submission vs. Extreme. Tommy could end his historic career in a bang by owning Regal every step of the way.

Second Pick: Christian Cage to SmackDown

Christian’s is everyone favorite (not mine) to win Money in the Bank. He’s going to get the push he needs, and will finally get to the top of the card.

His possibilities are endless on SmackDown, with both the Hardyz to feud against, Edge for old times’ sake (maybe), and even MVP for a future Mid-Card feud. Shelton Benjamin could also fuel Christian once he gets on there.

I made an article a long time ago on Christian going to Raw. He could fit in with Jericho, and ride that train that Jericho can’t diss his Peeps. For face/face, we could see a competitive feud with HBK, and if all fails here, I don’t know where else to go.
