The WWE Draft will be taking place tonight and SmackDown will be going live on Tuesday nights. Both Raw and SmackDown will be represented at the commentary table this evening as Mauro Ranallo revealed on Twitter that he will be joined by Jerry Lawler, Byron Saxton and Michael Cole for tonight’s show.
Current WWE Women’s Champion Charlotte recently spoke to The Wrap about the WWE Draft and she was asked which brand she wants to be drafted to. You can check out the full interview here along with a quote below.
“I really don’t have a preference because I truly believe both brands will have to elevate their game to be the top show,” she said. “If I’m on ‘Smackdown’ I want to be better than ‘Raw.’ If I’m on ‘Raw’ I want to be better than ‘Smackdown.’ And there’s going to be six people from NXT, and people we maybe haven’t seen in a while are going to have more opportunities, so it’s going to exciting all around.”
Fandango recently spoke to the Portland Press Herald when WWE was in Maine over the weekend and he talked about why the WWE Draft is a good thing and more. You can check out the full interview here along with some quotes below.
Working with Chris Jericho at WrestleMania 29: “It was a lot of pressure leading up to my first match against a guy I grew up admiring and one of the reasons I got into this business. I was not only nervous as a performer, but working with one of the guys I looked up to and not letting him down.”
Thoughts on the WWE Draft: “There’s a positive vibe in the locker room because it’s a change that’s creating more room and slots and TV time for guys who aren’t really getting it. Tyler and I are really excited to see where we fall.”
