Preview: The WWE Draft
June 11, 2007It’s a Raw so big, it will start one hour early at 8/7 CT on the USA Network.
Monday night, on a special three-hour edition of Raw, the entire WWE roster will converge in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., for the fourth-ever WWE Draft.
In professional sports, draft day is always special for a young athlete. No one knows where they will be going as they get their official start in the professional ranks.
On Monday, the Superstars of WWE will all be nervous for a very similar reason. Until their name is (or isn’t) called, none of the Superstars will know if the brand they currently call home will still be theirs come Tuesday morning. Whose names will be called at the podium to bring their talent to a new brand?
The three-hour special edition of Raw will be made even more special, as it will also be “Mr. McMahon Appreciation Night,†ordered by the WWE Chairman of the Board himself.
What festivities will take place to honor the former ECW World Champion? And will McMahon’s mental state be more stable than it was last week, as he wreaked havoc in the locker room as a maniacal matchmaker?
Monday will also be uncertain for the new World Tag Team Champions, Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch, who beat a weakened Matt & Jeff Hardy for their titles last week. Will the draft split the pair just as they reach the pinnacle of their profession?
Don’t miss all the action on the special three-hour WWE Draft edition of Raw, Monday night at a special time, 8/7 CT on USA Network.
