2009 WWE Draft announced

[Brandon Blaze]

As if April couldn’t possibly get any bigger – WWE.com has learned that eight days following the 25th Anniversary of Wrestlemaina WWE will “shake things upâ€￾ once again, with a 2009 WWE Draft that will commence live on Monday Night Raw on USA Network In many ways, the WWE Universe continues to feel the aftershocks created by from last year’s epic Draft on Raw during which 10 Superstars changed their respective home brands. (Followed by more than a dozen Superstars who were affected by a subsequent Supplemental Draft that took place on WWE.com.) Several of those roster adjustments quickly resulted in title changes that dramatically altered the WWE landscape – among them CM Punk winning the World Heavyweight Championship from Edge a week after the Straightedge Superstar had been drafted to Raw. With that, what can our Superstars, General Managers and you, the WWE Universe, expect from the Draft when Raw commences live in Atlanta, Ga. April 13? Details will be forthcoming in the weeks ahead, though one thing is certain: as per Mr.MaMahon's statement a year before, it will be “time to shake things up around here!â€￾

So we already find out about it.

So who do you see going where.

Will Christian end up on another show. Will Triple H go back to Raw. Will Cena swich. What do you see taking place. How will Vince "kill" himself this time.

hopefully Cena and Orton jump ship to SD, while HHH and Edge go to Raw

 

[THE Renegade Diesel]

I see champions crossing brands, just to give it that "wtf!" aspect. Probably a midcard champion getting sent to another brand to feud with their midcard wrestlers.

&& hopefully. The unification of the tag team belts.

 

[★Chuck Zombie★]

I see MVP and Undertaker going to RAW and possibly Jericho and Punk going to Smackdown!.

 

[Wordlife]

ugh Punk on SD wouldn't work though... Jericho yes... but idk, then you'd HAVE to have a CM Punk/Christian feud if he were on SD

 

[Hometown Kid]

Just some early predictions i'm throwing out there. Hardly worthwhile or stone cold or anything especially not knowing the format of the draft...I would rather it just be like when they drew ping pong balls for picks instead of the last few years though. =/

Raw gets: Shelton Benjamin, Triple H, Matt Hardy, Christian (Since the ECW Champion always gets drafted to Raw >_>)

SD gets: Jack Swagger, Chris Jericho, John Cena, CM Punk

ECW gets: MVP, Rey Mysterio

Meh. =/

 

[Wordlife]

since you did a pre-draft prediction, I'll do the same:

SD - Orton, Cena, CM Punk, Swagger, Jericho
Raw - HHH, Taker, Christian, MVP, Morrison
ECW - Kane, Rey Mysterio, The Brian Kendrick

 

[MikeRaw]

W00t. That's good. But it's interesting that it's so early this year. I like it though, because hopefully Backlash won't be just WM rematches again.

 

[THE Renegade Diesel]

They did it on 2005 right? Following 'mania? A little bit after is when I got back into wrestling so its not like I'd know.

 

[Hometown Kid]

That's another thing, since they're back to the same time period it used to be held on, it's making me think they might go back to the cool ping pong ball format.

 

[Brandon Blaze]

I rather it be like the time when Cena went to Raw.

Happens over a few weeks. You have no idea who is drafted until they show up. If that happens Spoilers are off limits for me.

 

[Wordlife]

^same here... I dont want to ruin it, besides, they seem to be having a draft EVERY year now, which I find pointless and kinda gay imo... every 2 would be better

 

[noumenon]

RAW: Undertaker, Morrison(more hopeful than logical on that one)

Smackdown: Jericho, Cena, JBL

ECW: MVP, Kendrick, Mysterio



I wouldn't doubt Punk to Smackdown...along with whoever is holding the US title by then to RAW. Since the brand split we've never seen the mid card titles change brands.

 

[MikeRaw]

Blaze, the way they did it back in 2005 won't happen again. Even if you or I don't read spoilers, many others would, and it could prevent wwe from making a big move.
Besides, I kinda like it how it is now, with it all on one show. It makes it a special event, and you get some inter brand matches.

Oh, and predictions:

To Raw: MVP, Edge, Undertaker, Christian, Morrison
To SD: Batista, Punk, Jericho, CM Punk
To ECW: Jobbers

 

[Wordlife]

^wow you're predicting Batista goes BACK to SD, instead of Cena? Thats an interesting take there my friend
