    Got confirmation that the Draft lottery may effect the line up 90% chance that it will.

    Got no details of how or what but all i was told was wait and see on June 6th at the first draft.

    Roll on June 6th :D:D:D:D:D:D

    in all wwe shows they say *Card subject to change* so when i first heard about the draft i thought that something would be changed but it could work for the better like benoit drafted to smakedown and jbl drafted to raw so we dont have to see him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,143 ✭✭✭D-FENS


    By the time of the RDS show, there will have been two swaps from Raw to SM, and two vice versa, so i imagine the card will certainly change, possibly even the main event, as i have a feeling Angle's on his way to Raw...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,594 ✭✭✭Fozzy


    It'd be great if they debuted some of the new cruiserweights by then, like Juvi, Super Crazy and Psicosis

    Went to a smackdown show 2 years looking forward to seeing kurt angle, turned out to be the week after brock lesner hammered him in a cage so he didnt show up :(. Last year went to a house show- he was in a wheelchair. Wonder will I ever get the chance to see him perform


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    I saw him vs Taker a few weeks ago in London. Unreal to see him in real life. The pop when he turned an "Old Skool" into an Angle slam had to be heard to be believed. What a performer.

    Heres hoping, but from reading the gossip sites, he is going to be feuding with Cena soon, so I reckon we are safe enough.

    ^^^^^^
    Myself and a buddy travelled from cork to belfast specifically just to see him. Twas when him and Benoit were the first smackdown tag champs and they defended against eddie and chavo. I still hold it up there as being the best match ive seen at a live show, all four men got massive pop's but the whole crowd just continuosly chanted angle's name during the match and angle turned around at one stage while waiting to be tagged in with this look of shock on his face as if he couldnt believe that he was getting chanted. Brilliant. Well worth the near 8 hours on a bus!!!

    From Wrestlezone.com

    There is still strong talk right now that Kurt Angle could be one of the major names moved in the upcoming WWE draft lottery month, which begins tonight on RAW live on SpikeTV. Obviously some names that won't effect things too much will be traded around, but there will also be a couple of names moved that will do what Vince said the brand extension would originally do to the WWE product, which is "shake things up." With Batista as the top babyface on RAW right now with the World title and a lack of strong heels to work with outside Triple H in the main-event program that would sell at the box office. Plus, it wouldn't hurt to have a couple of extraordinary pay-per view matches as champion, something almost guaranteed when Kurt Angle is fifty percent of the equation. Kurt Angle is scheduled to have a match with Booker T on SmackDown! Thursday, so it's pretty likely if he is going to be moved, it won't be tonight on RAW.

    If Kurt is to go to Smackdown, hopefully it will be after the RDS, but I reckon there will be a big draft to kick the whole thing in style.

    Nah, I expect the lower talent to go in the first two weeks. I mean would anyone really care if we saw Rob Conway instead of Dupree?

    A big switch to start off, and a big one to finish possibly??? But I agree, I think Kurt may be the last to go..... (Hopefully, never seen him live!)


  • Registered Users Posts: 241 ✭✭antifyre


    <after watching first 10 mins of RAW>


    Well, I don't think anyone expected that!!

  • Registered Users Posts: 42 Dyaso


    right about the big switch. cena to raw, but im glad. i dont watch smackdown, i only watch raw the odd time, so does this mean cena wont be coming to dublin now that he is a raw superstar. tats cat cause cena is one of the top acts in wwe at the mo. WORD LIFE!!!

    How wrong was I :eek:

    Shouldn't there be spoiler tags?..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 133 ✭✭Zip


    Cant wait for cena to debut on raw next week :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    Well with Angle to Raw as well, whats the bloody story. There will be a title match for a title which isnt even on the brand of the show of the tour, and two of the competitors are now Raw Superstars! :mad:

    Are they trying to make SD the real minor league now?

    I'd wait and see who gets drafted to SM this week before deciding that, plus i still think Cena will will end up back on SM and the two rosters will end up fairly even in terms of Big names.


  • Registered Users Posts: 241 ✭✭antifyre


    Folks, I still think Smackdown is the new ECW......

    ....but we'll have to wait and see!

    Thats a good call, could really see them pushing that

    Angle gone now too! Will there be anyone good in Dublin?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭Cactus Col


    A bit of luck and Kane will be drafted to smackdown

    Both Angle and Cena will be in Dublin as the drafs doesn't change the card. Someone posted a link this week explaining it. I just hope Benoit is there but I don't think he will be. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,371 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor


    is that certain - Angle and Cena are the only two guys i was looking forward to seeing (unless Taker turns up)

    It seems certain. Read the thread entitled "Rain forecast for WWE show" as someone posted a link explaining that drafts won't affect the show.
