#4 The ECW Champion has been drafted to Monday Night RAW twice in WWE history

Bobby Lashley was drafted to Monday Night RAW as ECW Champion during the 2007 WWE Draft

The WWE ECW World Heavyweight Championship has twice been vacated due to the WWE Draft.

During the 2007 WWE Draft, then-ECW World Heavyweight Champion Bobby Lashley was drafted to Monday Night RAW from ECW. Lashley was feuding with WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon, Shane McMahon and Umaga on WWE television at the time.

This stemmed from Lashley defeating Umaga whilst representing Donald Trump against Mr. McMahon in the "Battle of the Billonaires" Hair vs Hair match at WrestleMania 23.

After Bobby Lashley defeated Mr. McMahon in a Street Fight at One Night Stand to once again become the ECW World Heavyweight Champion, the champion was seemingly looking to the future as champion once more.

However, once Lashley was drafted to RAW he was forced to vacate the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. Since the title was exclusive to the ECW brand, it was not eligible to switch brands during the draft.

But this rule was ignored the following year when then-ECW World Heavyweight Champion Kane was drafted from ECW to Monday Night RAW during the 2008 WWE Draft.

Kane brought the ECW World Heavyweight Championship to the red brand, only to lose it several weeks later to ECW Superstar Mark Henry in a triple threat match also involving the Big Show at the Night of Champions.
