WWE Draft 2020: Full list of night one picks
This year’s WWE Draft kicks off with night one taking place on SmackDown tonight.
The draft begins tonight and concludes on Monday’s episode of Raw. The draft is again divided into two pools of wrestlers, with more than 20 eligible to be drafted by SmackDown or Raw tonight and more than 30 eligible to be drafted by SmackDown or Raw on Monday. Due to Raw being three hours, it will get three picks for every two picks that SmackDown gets. Tag teams “will count as one pick unless FOX or USA Network, in conjunction with WWE Officials, wants to pick one Superstar from the team.”
Undrafted wrestlers will become free agents and are “able to sign with the brand of their choosing.”
Stephanie McMahon will preside over both nights of the draft.
WWE has noted that more picks will also be made on Saturday’s episode of Talking Smack.
Tonight’s show begins at 8 p.m. Eastern time. The updated rosters for Raw and SmackDown will be listed below:
