WWE Draft 2020: Official Rules & Eligible Superstars
The 2020 WWE Draft begins tomorrow night on Smackdown. WWE has sent in a press release detailing the official rules and eligible Superstars for this year’s draft.
Here is what has been revealed about the draft:
- Stephanie McMahon will preside over the draft and announce the picks for both RAW and Smackdown.
- Much like last year as well, RAW will get 3 picks for every 2 picks that Smackdown gets since it is a 1-hour longer show.
- Tag-teams count as one pick unless a brand specifically says they only wish to draft one member of the team.
- Anyone left undrafted will immediately become free agents. This happened to Heath Slater, which was hard for him since he has so many kids.
Different superstars will be eligible to be drafted on different nights of the draft. Superstars eligible to be drafted on Friday night will not be eligible on Monday and vice versa.
