Prediction time: SD's final two draft picks. (bit of a spoiler warning)

[darkpower]

I have to figure that they will close out the official draft lottery picking (not counting the trades just yet) with someone huge, and it ends with SD's final pick, so I'm guessing a few BIG names here.

The first one, I'm going to say HBK, since I believe that they have been able to do this "closing out" trend, and whenever that ends up happening, the people involved get drafted. So I am believing that HBK sort of "sealed the deal" with all that posing with Hogan, and Shawn Michaels gets drafted to SmackDown, which would be a good pick for them.

Now, I am not sure of the final pick. Either Batista to send the World Title to SD, or they might actually make nightmares come true and send Triple H there. Either one are eligable in my book, because they both closed out the feud (I hope they did, that is). Batista only had an interview, and HHH wasn't even SEEN! Could this mean that they might get one of those guys? I'm thinking so.

Time for the final SD draft predictions.

Most definately Triple H. No doubt in my mind Triple H is going to smackDOWN! Now the other guy is gonig to be HBK or Batista, or someone else...bt Triple H fo sho!

[The One]

My guesses are...

Batista with the World Heavyweight Championship...if for nothing else then to save us from calling a suposed credible World Title, the "SmackDown Championship".

And the other draft pick...

Chris Jericho. Though I wouldn't mind seeing a Highlight Reel vs. Carlito's Cabana mini-fued, somehow a heel/heel thing doesn't seem like the type of choice WWE would make right now. Plus Jericho is needed on SmackDown to more or less carry the mic work. SmackDown has JBL and once in a while Guerrero does a real good promo...and that's about it. Jericho would do wonderfully on SmackDown and infact I never knew why they took Christian and him off SmackDown 2 years ago.

I actually want HHH and Batista drafted to Smackdown. I want the World Title on SD! and not some bogus belt ruining all of the history but I also dont want HHH staying on RAW.

One of those two and I could definitely see Y2J going to SD! or Shelton Benjamin

[Cuzziebro]

Well i think it will be Chrsitian and Batista. RVD and Show go to Raw, and Christian takes Shows place in the 6 man match. JBlk wins the match but Teddy Long tells him that its too late, he already has a Champion. Batista. Therefore Setting Up a Fued between Batista and JBL.

That sort of doesn't make any sense. The World Heavyweight Title only has three years of history. I'm not too fond the the SD! Title idea, but it wouldn't be THAT much more bogus than WHC.

As for the two SD! picks. I'm going to agree with The One and say Batista and Chris Jericho.

Jericho might finally be a top player on SD!, and he could really find his niche there. Y2J's a solid wrestler, and a great promo guy, which is what SD! needs in its main eventers. Eddie Guerrero is sort of both, but who knows how long the WWE can keep him a strong heel. JBL is a great promo guy, but he's not much for epic matches, which is what WWE needs in a megaheel. Randy Orton is on the rise, but he's exactly that, on the rise. In a few years he may be the top heel of the WWE, but right now he should be no higher than second.

Batista's a sealed deal, but instead of Jericho I'm tempted to say HBK or Shelton Benjamin. Benjamin has a lot of great matches on RAW waiting for him, though. He still hasn't had a feud with Triple H. I can see him getting some good stuff out of Edge. He can have a rookie vs. rookie feud with Carlito (which would be great for both guys). Kurt Angle vs. Shelton Benjamin is practically a must down the line. Shelton can go to SD!, but who's he going to feud with? Continue his rivalry with Muhammad Hassan? Who's the greatest athlete in the world; Orlando Jordan or Shelton Benjamin? Shelton is better off sticking on RAW where he can rise as the second biggest face.

HBK on the other hand may be too big for SD!. As a face he may overshadow Batista. If the fans have a choice to vote between HBK and Batista to face JBL for the World Heavyweight Title, I'm pretty sure they will pick Shawn Michaels. Part of the charm of sending Batista to SD!, is that he will be a big fish in a small pond. I don't mean that in an offensive way to anyone on SD!, but on RAW, Batista's theme seemed to echo throughout the arena when he walked to the ring as one of its top babyfaces. On SD!, it will probably shake the arena to the ground. Moving Batista to SD! gives him the safeguard of being the top babyface, with Benoit, Booker T and 'Taker there for back-up. HBK going to SD! would just completely erase any kind of strength Batista gains from wearing blue & silver.

1. Putting this WITHOUT A FUCKING SPOILER WARNING, and
2. Trying to be a smartass and actually posting this after the spoilers came out (I posted this thread right after RAW was over).

So I thank you for being a pathetic asshole.

EDIT: Put a spoiler warning up now in the thread title. Guess WHY!!
