I'm gonna hold compete judgment on the draft till the supplementary picks tomorrow but I think Cena moving back was the right move. Predictable yes but the right move. You can't have the Rock on Raw next week and no Cena there to hype Mania. Lord only knows next time we see the Rock on WWE TV so he needed to be there. As other have said, as soon as Orton went to SD! there was no way to have both him and Cena move.

Personally, I didn't like it. I felt like they could've more properly filled their time instead of playing some odd practical joke. I'm not going to lose sleep over it or anything but it did seem rather pointless.

WWE is catered for internet fans, only they're really bad at it and don't have their finger on the ePulse, did you not know that?

Again Noid, it didn't happen how YOU wanted it to, so you're mad. It made perfect sense, storyline wise.

I like how the new and improved Dolph Zigglerbourne got a jobber entrance, and more generic tights.

Wow glad I missed the drat. I read the results sounds like a meh show. What a stupid gimmick with Cena (if you wanna keep him on Raw how about you just keep him on Raw don't draft and then redraft that's just stupid and a waste of time, waste of two draft picks, yes it's fake but the show is built around the draft way to make the first and last pick pointless)
Who is the big heel on Smackdown with ADR gone? Barrett? God I hope so lol |

It'd be swell if it were Barrett, but Mark Henry seems to be getting the immediate push out the gate. You also have Cody Rhodes on SmackDown!, who with another strong victory against Rey Mysterio at Extreme Rules, could really become a solid main event threat. |

If there was more movement between the brands tonight I would not be so irked by the Cena thing. Because of the bait and switch, we only had six draft picks tonight which is really kind of lame.
You know what I realized during this whole process though? How the WWE royalyl screwed their roster with WrestleMania season. There are so few credible main eventers right now it's kind of scary. As some have said, Cody Rhodes right now is your #1 heel. And who can you elevate or move there? CM Punk? The Miz? The organization HAD some stars that could have made a move or two that could have been moved into main event roles, but the WWE screwed the pooch. The two I'm looking at are not surprisingly Wade Barrett and Sheamus. These two guys were part of the main event scene in the WWE until they decided in the last minute to completely derail their momentum and progress so they could have Taker vs. HHH at WrestleMaina. Well that's just super. While both guys are holding mid card belts, the two have been booked as jobbers since December. And to make it even better, HHH AND Taker are both off of TV while these two guys are jobbing it up. Sheamus of six months ago could easily have gone to Smackdown and feuded with Christian, Orton and Kane. Today, he doesn't even seem close to that level. The same for Barrett. Six months ago, he's going over Cena at Survivor Series. Tonight he jobs to Mysterio in five minutes. Then you get other wrestlers like Daniel Bryan and Drew McIntyre, two guys who has pretty much disappeared despite being very good wrestlers. You also have a crop of guys like Kofi Kingston, R-Truth, John Morrison and Jack Swagger who they keep in a tweener role who are too big for a mid card belt, but not good enough to main event. It seems they're trying to bring up Morrison and Truth now, but how about the other two? They could absolutely use Swagger right now to move up the ladder on Smackdown. The WWE needs to repair the damage they did to their up and comers from December-April. If they can book as smartly as they did from late 09-10, then they might be ok. If not, well, then, I guess we can get excited for the same 8 guys feuding with each other until next year. |

Sin Cara moving makes sense. He can be edited on SmackDown!, he will be exposed to a larger Hispanic audience, and he's already got the rub from Cena on RAW. It's sort of like how Christian was on RAW for a little bit after ECW folded, but got drafted to SmackDown!.
But what would have been absolutely brilliant is moving Sin Cara to SmackDown!, but then moving him back before he even gets to do anything. It'd be a huge crisis for him to solve. |

Act I: Jack finds out there's a nuclear bomb somewhere in LA. The entire act is gathering clues to find the bomb. Act II: Side plots involving secondary characters, all the while Jack gets closer to the bomb. Act III: Jack figures out where the bomb is, rushes in to save the day... But there's no bomb. There was never a bomb. Not because a terrorist left a misleading message so he could blow something else up. There were just no bombs. Heh heh whoops. Roll credits. After watching that, don't you wish they would have spent the first act of the episode dealing with something that was actually happening? Or do you think that first third of the show was worthwhile because in the end, LA doesn't blow up - even though he didn't actually do anything? |

I personally think its ironic that Kofi's win brought Randy over to his brand.

I would love to see Kofi Kingston and Randy Orton interact on SmackDown!. I hope the WWE remembers the feud the two had on RAW. They could really start teasing something between them again.

Oh my God! The WWE Title match at Extreme Rules didn't happen! Instead, John Morrison and R-Truth had a dance-off in the Steel Cage to decide the true #2 Contender! Yay! I mean, I was interested in seeing that WWE Title match the commentators had been talking about for so long, but it was good to see John Morrison face conflict and reach a conclusion tonight!

I suppose I just didn't understand the point of the "drafted twice" angle. If they had done it to advance a storyline of some sort it would've been one thing, but the whole thing just kind of leaves the audience feeling like they were screwed out of a draft pick.
Even if they had played up The Miz constantly saying all night that he was finally done with Cena and that he'd never have to deal with him again, it would've been a better payoff at the end. If Miz just harassed him with it the whole night or something it would've been much more exciting when Cena got drafted back. It all just seemed like there was no real point to it. |

Or have Cena's team win the ME with Cena pinning Miz, have Miz brag that it doesn't matter cause after EC he never has to see hi,m again and then all of a sudden bam Miz is drafted to Smackdown, you run with that for a month or two and then put em back on Raw if you really need to.
Or don't draft him to SD in the first place one or the other. This angle was a giant excuse to have him on team SD in the night's main event. Waste. |

FFS guys, stop acting like a bunch of fucking sooks. I can see Supreme's point, but he's being a total wank about it. And CSL is acting like the cool kid, sticking up for the other cool kid. Yes loopydate and Noid have their point of view which they're entitled to, and I can see where they're coming from also. This is a WEB FOURM which is where the IWC communicates.
Is it worth ruining a thread over? No..... |

The best part of Raw was Punk and Del Rio making out after their win.
First wrestling I've watched since WM, I do love the draft, even the gimped version compared to the multi-week draft they used to have. |

A crab could have made a more intelligent post than this. An actual crab, with no thought process, no I.Q, no emotion, no intellect, just chemicals crashing into each other could have walked sideways on a keyboard and whatever came out would have been less retarded than that post right there.
