4. BRIE BELLA (2009)

Brie Bella slipped all the way to the very last pick of the 2009 draft.

2009 Draft: #36, RAW

This pick might surprise some readers, considering the fact that Brie isn't really the most popular of the two Bellas, but she was taken with the very last and final selection in the WWE Draft.

Not too long after this, The Bella Twins would go on to enjoy an enormous amount of success. Featured in nearly every episode of Raw during this time, Brie and Nikki had certainly made up for any lack of in-ring skill, by being a very unique brand of their own.

It's also worth noting that in that very same draft, Nikki was taken with the 19th pick. Meanwhile, Dolph Ziggler was selected at number 32.
