The WWE had its annual superstar roster shuffle this past monday night, also known as the WWE Draft. Things got kicked off by the Unified Champions The Miz and Big Show lost to The Hart Dynasty as well as the title belts. The next match was a Diva match as the winning brand got a Diva draft pick. Raw had Maryse and Diva's champion Eve took on Michelle McCool and Layla. Maryse and Eve could not put their bitter rivalry on hold for a week as their hate for each other cost them the match and gave Smackdown the first draft pick. Smackdown received Kelly Kelly from the Raw Roster.
The second match pitted Evan Bourne against CM Punk, and CM Punk once again got help from one his followers to defeat Bourne. Smackdown received Big Show. Then a ten man battle royal took place. The last two man standing in the match were Dibease and Ray Mysterio and Dibease won the match for RAW and got three draft picks. RAW got R-Truth, John Morrison, and Edge.
Christian and Chris Jericho battled it out for the next draft pick. Christ Jericho connected with a code-breaker and knocked Christian out and gave Smackdown a draft pick that sent Kofi Kingston from RAW to Smackdown. With the score tied three to three in draft picks the next match had a lot riding on it. As new RAW roster draftee John Morrison fought against Heavyweight Champion Jack Swaggert. It was a hard fought match but in the end Jack Swaggert put an end to Morrison's run and got Smackdown a fourth pick. The pick sends Christian packing his bags from RAW to Smackdown. The last draft pick match up the night put Dolph Ziggler in one corner from Smackdown and Hornswaggle in the other corner from RAW. Hornswaggle kept Dolph Ziggler out of the ring for ten seconds and won the match and evened the draft picks for the night at 4 a piece per brand. The last pick of the draft monday night was...Chris Jericho.
The WWE has a supplemental draft going on starting at noon eastern, so the drafting will continue.
The last night of the match was against Randy Orton and Sheamus, the winner is the number one contender for John Cena's Championship belt. But before the match started Batista came storming out and was crying that he did not lose to Cena last night at Extreme Rules and got in the middle of the match before it started. Cena came out then declared it a triple threat match. This match was brutal as all three men wanted the chance to face John Cena more than the next person he was wrestling. Just when it appeared that Randy Orton was going to win the match he was in his "Viper stage" RAW's new superstar Edge spears Orton and Batista rolls over and lays his arm on top of Orton for the 1..2..3..! Bastista is the new number one contender!
