Becky Lynch was the first-round pick of the night as RAW drafted her on Day Two. She had a confrontation with the RAW Women's Champion Charlotte Flair, who is now a SmackDown star.

Bianca Belair was in the mix as well, and a main event bout was set up between her and Charlotte Flair. Sasha Banks, of course, remains on SmackDown following the WWE Draft.

The main event on RAW meant that both days of the WWE Draft were headlined by women - Bianca Belair, specifically. Although her match against Charlotte Flair ended in a disqualification (to protect both women), it was a huge statement.

Sasha Banks came out at the end and attacked both Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair, sending a message in the process. It was another huge night for the women, and Bianca Belair's push to the top of RAW is inevitable and virtually guaranteed, but it's going to have to wait longer.

Shayna Baszler was drafted to SmackDown as well, and that might turn out to be an important pick in the long run. Shayna Baszler has been on a tear, injuring Nia Jax and squashing Dana Brooke.

Baszler is being pushed almost similarly to early 2019 - where she had the most dominant performance in Elimination Chamber history (along with Braun Strowman).

The Queen Of Spades is likely going to become a legitimate title contender on SmackDown, with her alliance with Nia Jax now well behind her.
