OK, so here it is. I like Alienoid’s idea of combining elements of the previous drafts. It more than likely won’t happen (because on WWE.com they mention the possibility that all three champions could land on the same show). But you never know.

To start the show, we see all the locker rooms, with guys wearing their respective brands’ shirts. We kick it off to the ring, where they have the red carpet in the ring. A tumbler is in the ring, with three envelopes. Shane comes out (cause Vince is still acting weird from the previous week), followed by Coachman, Long, and whoever the hell is gonna be drafting for ECW (maybe have Heyman return on this night as a representative? Terry Funk? Mick Foley? I dunno). The three champions (Cena, Edge, and Lashley) come out as well.

Shane explains the rules, EVERYONE is eligible for draft, and the champions keep their titles even if drafted. There will be 7 rounds of drafting by the GMs (where they themselves select the picks), and then after there will be three lottery picks in which the GMs pull from a barrel containing the names of all the talent from the other two brands. Inside the tumbler are three envelopes, each containing a logo. This will determine draft order (and basically where the champions go as they are the obvious top 3 picks).

Shane pulls from the tumbler (which is never zoomed in on so you can’t tell that the envelopes probably are marked or bent so Shane’ll know which is which), and it is determined that Raw picks first, Smackdown second, and ECW third. Coachman ponders the decision, and decides that, as much as he may not like him, there is a score that needs to be settled with John Cena, and so he is Raw’s first pick. Long then takes Bobby Lashley, stating that it’s good to get back a guy he wishes he never lost. The ECW rep then takes Edge third (who is pissed that he fell to #3). Not sure what to do about the fact that the ECW title is on Smackdown, though.

Anyways, at various points during the night, picks continue to be announced (from either the podium on stage or backstage). Coachman, desperate to get Cena to lose the belt, drafts Batista to Raw at #2. Long decides to take Umaga with his #2 pick, while ECW makes a major splash by drafting Randy Orton, setting up a possible Rated RKO matchup.

Backstage, we see Cade, Murdoch, Deuce, and Domino backstage talking to Vince. They desperately try to get Vince to allow the champions to stay together during the draft. Vince then sets up a 4 vs. 2 Handicap Match: Cade, Murdoch, Deuce, and Domino vs. Cena and Lashley. Vince gives them one simple instruction: beat them down, and you can stay together.
The match goes down, and, not surprisingly, Cena/Lashley overcome the odds. However, a huge beatdown occurs afterwards, with chairs, steel steps, the tag belts, all that good stuff. As such, Vince announces that both sets of tag champs can stay together.

This sets off a huge section of picks, Coach announces that his #3 pick is the team of Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch. Long then retains his champs, drafting Deuce and Domino. ECW decides to add some gold, drafting Intercontinental Champion Santino Marella. Coach takes MVP at #4, while Long takes Chavo. ECW decides to take an ECW Original, Chris Benoit, with his #4 pick.

Just gonna rattle off some more picks here: 5th round: Women’s champ Melina returns to Raw, Henry returns to Smackdown, The Great Khali goes to ECW. 6th round: CM Punk to Raw, Carlito to Smackdown, Elijah Burke returns to ECW. Before the 7th round occurs, there’s a battle royal or something involving a bunch of undrafted talent. Snitsky ends up winning the match, and an impressed Coach selects him with his #7 pick as a result.
Carlito, meanwhile, already has managed to piss off his new boss, and so Teddy decides to spite him by drafting Ric Flair. However, it would be the last draft pick he’d make. The ECW rep realizes it needs a full-time authority figure and that EVERYONE is eligible, and so it takes Teddy Long with the #7 pick, leaving Vickie Guerrero as the new Smackdown GM.

Chris Masters challenges Santino Marella to one more match for the title before Santino goes off to ECW. Masters ends up pulling off a victory this time, so Masters is the new Intecontinental Champion and ECW is without a title. Marella can be used in a team with Little Guido or something, because ECW seems to be trying to build a tag division.

Here’s the lottery in a nutshell:

-Raw gets: Jillian Hall, Marcus Cor Von, William Regal
-Smackdown gets: Jeff Hardy, Kevin Thorn, Chris Masters (IC Title moves to Smackdown, Hardyz feud with DnD)
-ECW gets: Finlay, Daivari, Eugene (once again to be with Khali. As long as he wrestles. Eugene could possibly turn heel and join the New Breed, maybe have him rant about how he’s pissed that people are calling him the “Mr. Irrelevant” of the draft.)

There will also be a trade window after the draft, so more changes can be made as the writers see fit. The only trade I can think off off-hand would be ECW GM Teddy trading one of (or all) of the Extreme Expose to Smackdown to get Kristal with him. I also see Heyman coming back and managing the New Breed.

I’m omitting DX, Rey Mysterio, Undertaker, and Rob Van Dam from this draft. I assume they just outright won’t mention them during the show. Hopefully, the night will end like the first draft lottery: with a huge clusterfuck brawl involving everyone looking like an episode of Wild and Crazy Kids.
