SmackDown Preview: New No 1 WWE Draft pick to be revealed, big title match confirmed for the show (October 9, 2020)

#5 What other changes can happen in the SmackDown roster?

Well, we are all really here to see their reaction

WWE have been quite tight-lipped about their plans for the Draft this year. However, they did confirm some of the rules for the much-anticipated event. Given that RAW is an hour longer than SmackDown, the red brand will pick two Superstars for each Superstar that the blue brand picks in the Draft.

As far as Tag Teams are confirmed, they will be considered as a single unit unless one of the network’s executives feel that they just want one person from a team. In that case, the tag teams would be forced to break up. Those Superstars who are not picked by either of the two brands will become a free agent, leaving them with the option of signing with RAW or SmackDown based on their choice.

While the biggest world titles on WWE seem sorted, for now, it is the tag team division, the women’s division, and the mid-card division across RAW and SmackDown that deserves special attention. WWE Draft 2020 is bound to stir things up, and it will be interesting to see what’s in store for both brands after the first day of the event.
