WWE Draft 2020: 5 things that must happen - New rule change, Roman Reigns' brand destination

#3 WWE RAW and WWE SmackDown must have General Managers

Paul Heyman worked as the Executive Director of RAW when the 2019 WWE Draft took place, while Eric Bischoff had a slightly different role but the same job title behind the scenes on SmackDown.

At the time, it seemed like Heyman and Bischoff would have been the perfect on-screen representatives of their brands during the draft pick announcements, but WWE decided to use Stephanie McMahon in that role instead.

While Stephanie always does a great job as an authority figure, does her WWE character even have the power these days to make those kinds of announcements?

She is a McMahon, of course, which is all the power someone seems to need to make decisions in WWE, but wouldn’t the 2020 Draft be so much better with separate people representing RAW and SmackDown?

Since the 2019 Draft, we have seen several people make decisions that General Managers or Commissioners would usually make – from Corey Graves and The Miz to WWE officials Adam Pearce and Pat Buck.

With the 2020 Draft approaching, perhaps it is time to finally appoint some new storyline decision-makers.
