The 2024 WWE Draft saw minimal changes to RAW and SmackDown. However, according to a report from WrestleVotes, some trades might occur before rosters lock on Monday, May 6.
RAW retained stars like CM Punk, Seth Rollins, and Drew McIntyre, while notable names like Bron Breakker moved from SmackDown. Nia Jax joined SmackDown, and Damage CTRL shifted to RAW.
SmackDown kept Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill, and champion Bayley. Trading Bayley or Belair to RAW seems unlikely due to their ties with Damage CTRL.
#4. The Awesome Truth traded to SmackDown for A-Town Down Under
Grayson Waller and Austin Theory disrespected top officials, leading to potential trades. The Awesome Truth could bring fresh dynamics to either brand.
#3. The Judgment Day and The Bloodline should switch brands
Tensions rise within The Judgment Day, creating an opportunity for a brand switch. Damian Priest’s new alliances could shake up the current terrain.

#1. LA Knight and Drew McIntyre should have changed brands in the WWE Draft
LA Knight and Drew McIntyre staying put raises questions. Potential feuds and title opportunities could arise with a brand swap.
The WWE Draft’s aftermath promises intriguing possibilities, with potential trades adding layers of unpredictability to the wrestling terrain.
