The arena opened in April of 2016 and has played host to WWE a number of times including the 2018 Elimination Chamber and Smackdown in December of last year. Night one of the two-night draft takes place tonight as WWE returns to the hard-split format which they abandoned following this year\u2019s superstar shakeup.<\/p>\n<p>Here is what\u2019s advertised for the show thus far:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns to face off on Smackdown for number one pick<br \/>\n\u2022 Charlotte Flair to collide tonight for Smackdown Women\u2019s Title in WWE Hell in a Cell rematch<br \/>\n\u2022 WWE Draft begins with Friday Night Smackdown on FOX (Fox &#x1f644;)<br \/>\n\u2022 What\u2019s next for Kevin Owens after his Ladder Match win?<br \/>\n\u2022 What Raw Superstar (Wrestler) is destined for Smackdown glory?<\/p>\n<p>Matches &amp; Segments:<\/p>\n<p>Which Show Gets the Number One Pick: Universal Champion Seth Rollins (Raw) vs. Roman Reigns (Smackdown)<\/p>\n<p>As they have done in the past, WWE is having a match with draft implications.<\/p>\n<p>Like Shawn Michaels and Diesel before them, Universal Champion Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns have a long history. They came up as members of The Shield in late 2012. They wrestled each other numerous times after Rollins turned on the Shield in 2014. One might argue WWE went the wrong way when Rollins returned from a knee injury in 2016 to attack Reigns when he was WWE World Heavyweight Champion. The crowd popped huge for Rollins and had been rejecting Reigns for some time. They continued with Rollins as a heel and Reigns as a babyface.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1072384312\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Rollins is coming off a Hell in a Cell match where he retained the Universal Championship over Bray Wyatt, although the match was stopped and largely rejected by the crowd (to say the least). Reigns defeated Erick Rowan in a lumberjack match last week. He teamed with Daniel Bryan to defeat Rowan and Luke Harper in a Tornado Tag Team match at Hell in a Cell. Tonight, Rollins and Reigns go one-on-one in a non-title match. If Rollins wins, Raw gets the number one pick. If Reigns wins, Smackdown gets the first pick.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/UniversalChampion?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#UniversalChampion<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWERollins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@WWERollins<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TheBigDog?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TheBigDog<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWERomanReigns?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@WWERomanReigns<\/a> will kickstart Friday Night <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SmackDown?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SmackDown<\/a> in a matchup with MAJOR <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWEDraft?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WWEDraft<\/a> implications. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWENow?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WWENow<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fyLFJD24ZE\">pic.twitter.com\/fyLFJD24ZE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1182393015744122880?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 10, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: What happens if they go to a double-DQ or count out, or if they have a no-contest? What\u2019s the motivation for either man to win as they\u2019re both eligible for the draft? Rollins could win and he could be drafted to Raw, where Bray Wyatt may end up. He wouldn\u2019t want that, now would he. Truthfully, it\u2019s just a reason to have this match on Fox, which is fine, just call it what it is. Rollins vs. Reigns is a big match just by their history and they\u2019re smart to put in on in the early going of the Fox era.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Smackdown Women\u2019s Championship: Charlotte Flair (champ) vs. Bayley (challenger)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This past Sunday at Hell in a Cell, Charlotte Flair began her tenth reign as a woman\u2019s champion as she defeated Bayley via submission to win the Smackdown title. It was the third time for her winning it this year. She defeated Asuka on Smackdown just prior to WrestleMania, and then Becky Lynch at Money in the Bank. Ironically it was Bayley who cashed in her just-won Money in the Bank contract that night to beat Charlotte.<\/p>\n<p>In a \u201cchampionship showcase\u201d this past Monday on Raw, Charlotte teamed with Raw Women\u2019s Champion Becky Lynch and lost to new WWE Women\u2019s Tag Team Champions the Kabuki Warriors (Asuka &amp; Kairi Sane) when Asuka spit green mist into Becky Lynch\u2019s face and pinned her. We didn\u2019t hear from Bayley nor her best friend Sasha Banks, who lost to Becky in a Hell in a Cell match on Sunday. Both were visibly upset following their losses.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight, Bayley gets a rematch for the Smackdown title against Charlotte. Here\u2019s Charlotte in a WWE exclusive following her win at Hell in a Cell:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Charlotte Flair proves she is the real champion: WWE Exclusive, Oct. 6. 2019\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AlLsmXYPqtM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: I don\u2019t see Charlotte dropping the title right away, as she has the last two times this year. My guess is she was given the Smackdown title to be a centerpiece on the show as the Fox era unfolds. The draft is really the overall bigger story, and where Charlotte and Becky end up for that matter is the most newsworthy. The x-factor in all of this is Ronda Rousey. She\u2019s not listed in either pool, but you wonder if her return is imminent and part of where they place Charlotte and\/or Becky. Charlotte and Bayley\u2019s fate get decided on Raw while we\u2019ll find out Becky\u2019s tonight.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Night One of the Draft: Pools &amp; Rules Announced, Celebrities to Appear<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-635821794\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>As anticipated, night one of the draft takes place tonight. This will be the first time since the original roster split ended in 2011 that we get this format as opposed to the superstar shakeup we\u2019ve had in the current roster split era. They are drafting the rosters from scratch, so anything goes. WWE has told us that the network executives from both USA (Raw) and Fox (Smackdown) will be involved in the draft process. One their website, WWE announced the pools of wrestlers eligible for the draft each night. They have divvied up the talent including wrestlers assigned to both Raw and Smackdown at the moment, as well as 205Live. Basically, they will draft certain wrestlers tonight and the rest on Raw. The notable wrestlers whose fate will be decided tonight are Raw Women\u2019s Champion Becky Lynch, Roman Reigns, The O.C. (Luke Gallows &amp; Karl Anderson and U.S. Champion A.J. Styles), and \u201cThe Fiend\u201d Bray Wyatt. Here\u2019s a tweet from WWE which includes a link to those \u201cpools\u201d for your review:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/SmackDown?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#SmackDown<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Raw?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Raw<\/a> are officially on the clock.<\/p>\n<p>The preliminary <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWEDraft?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WWEDraft<\/a> Pools have been determined and designate which WWE Superstars are available for selection on each night.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/U3j2qDeoIM\">https:\/\/t.co\/U3j2qDeoIM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1182388629051719681?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 10, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>On today\u2019s Wade Keller hotline for VIP members Wade discussed the pools, celebrities appearing, and the rules for the draft. If you\u2019re not a VIP member I encourage you to become one not only for the must-listen hotline, but for all the stellar content especially during this time where there\u2019s a variety of great wrestling programming from which to choose. Nonetheless those celebrities will be on hand throughout the process and they come from MLB, the NFL, and Hollywood. Here is the list according to WWE.com:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Kevin Burkhardt and Frank Thomas \u2014 FOX MLB analysts<br \/>\n\u2022 Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, Jimmy Johnson and Tony Gonzalez \u2014 FOX NFL Sunday<br \/>\n\u2022 Ronde Barber, Charles Davis, Chris Spielman and Daryl Johnston \u2014 FOX NFL analysts<br \/>\n\u2022 Charissa Thompson, Michael Vick and Peter Schrager \u2014 FOX NFL Kickoff<br \/>\n\u2022 Rob Stone, Brady Quinn, Reggie Bush, Matt Leinart and Urban Meyer \u2014 Big Noon Kickoff<br \/>\n\u2022 Joel Klatt \u2014 FOX College Football analyst<br \/>\n\u2022 Dul\u00e9 Hill of USA\u2019s \u201cPsych\u201d and \u201cSuits\u201d<br \/>\n\u2022 James Roday of \u201cPsych\u201d<br \/>\n\u2022 Marcus Lemonis of \u201cThe Profit\u201d<br \/>\n\u2022 Margaret Josephs and Melissa Gorga of \u201cReal Housewives of New Jersey\u201d<br \/>\n\u2022 Rodney Harrison and Chris Simms \u2014 Football Night in America<br \/>\n\u2022 Rebecca Lowe, Robbie Mustoe and Kyle Martino \u2014 Premier League Live<\/p>\n<p>They also published the rules for the draft:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Over 70 Superstars, as well as tag teams, are eligible for selection in this year\u2019s WWE Draft.<br \/>\n\u2022 SmackDown will draft 30 Superstars, and Raw will select another 41 Superstars.<br \/>\n\u2022 Since SmackDown is a two-hour show and Raw is a three-hour show, for every two picks SmackDown makes, Raw will receive three.<br \/>\n\u2022 Tag teams will count as one pick unless FOX or USA Network specifically wants to pick only one Superstar from the team.<br \/>\n\u2022 Any undrafted Superstars will immediately be declared free agents and able to sign with the brand of their choosing.<\/p>\n<p>Night one unfolds tonight.<\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: It\u2019s fascinating how this has been built and presented. It\u2019s good that they\u2019ve at least given us the rules as opposed to the superstar shakeup where there\u2019s no explanation as to who goes where. The network executives being involved is interesting, as now with two different companies you would think they\u2019d have a say in whom they\u2018d want on their shows. As far as the wrestlers I\u2019m particularly curious about the placement of WWE Champion Brock Lesnar. I would think he remains on Smackdown which would keep Universal Champion Seth Rollins on Raw, in theory. It\u2019s also interesting to see if a Raw Champion is drafted to Smackdown (i.e. Becky Lynch or Robert Roode &amp; Dolph Ziggler) and vice versa. They can flip flop the Intercontinental Champion (Shinuske Nakamura) and the U.S. Champ (A.J. Styles) easily, even though Styles spent a number of years on Smackdown. I wouldn\u2019t mind Nakamura on Raw. Do the 205Live guys end up bunched up on one show? I don\u2019t really have predictions as to who goes where. I think it\u2019s better to just watch it all unfold and we\u2019ll have a better idea as to what everyone involved is thinking.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Storyline Follow-Up<\/h3>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s Next for Kevin Owens<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last week on Smackdown, Kevin Owens defeated Shane McMahon in a Ladder Match to retain his job in WWE and the right to fire Shane, which he did on the microphone following the match. He also gave him a Stunner for his troubles. Here\u2019s Kevin in a WWE exclusive after the match:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kevin Owens relieved after Ladder Match win: SmackDown Exclusive, Oct. 4, 2019\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/92YLsobTDlk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>More importantly, Kevin Owens\u2019 fate will be decided tonight in the draft pool announced for the show. They haven\u2019t focused on his friendship with Sami Zayn, who\u2019s eligible to be drafted Monday night as he\u2019s listed with Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura.<\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: Thank the lord this story is over. I still find it comical that Shane is \u201cfired,\u201d even though he\u2019s a McMahon and minority owner in the company. His firing would have to be disclosed publicly to the shareholders seeing as WWE is a publicly traded company. Only in WWE do they try to get you to buy nonsense like this.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Raw Wrestlers Destined for Smackdown<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is really tied into the draft covered earlier in this report. WWE made it a point to emphasize that Sasha Banks, Bray Wyatt, A.J. Styles, and Braun Strowman from Raw are all eligible tonight to be drafted to Smackdown. It doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019ll move, but Strowman has been on Raw since the rosters split in July of 2016 as has Sasha Banks. Wyatt was initially on Smackdown but moved to Raw in 2017. Obviously he\u2019s undergone a major character overhaul this year with the Fiend. A.J. spent most of his time on Smackdown, but that doesn\u2019t mean he can\u2019t move back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s Next for Kofi Kingston<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is not an advertised item, but I wanted to expand on it.<\/p>\n<p>In the main event of last week\u2019s debut on Fox, Kofi Kingston lost the WWE Championship he had held since WrestleMania to Brock Lesnar, who began his eighth overall reign as a world champion in WWE. The match lasted all of five seconds, as Brock immediately hit Kofi with his signature F-5. Following these proceedings Rey Mysterio, who had been attacked by Brock on the preceding Raw, came out with Cain Velasquez from UFC. For those not familiar, Velasquez took the UFC Championship from Brock back in 2010. You could tell Brock felt like he\u2019d seen a ghost. Velasquez took down Brock who eventually retreated.<\/p>\n<p>WWE is having a press conference today involving Velasquez and Brock, as well as British boxer Tyson Fury and Braun Strowman. They ran an angle on Raw where Fury and Strowman went at each other and the locker room got involved. Nonetheless, Triple H will be at the helm. It\u2019s expected Brock vs. Cain Velasquez will be announced as well as Strowman vs. Fury for the upcoming \u201cglobal\u201d Crown Jewel event on the WWE Network (here we go with the not talking about Saudi Arabia nonsense again).<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a WWE exclusive with Kofi as well as a tweet from him:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kofi Kingston not done with Brock Lesnar: SmackDown Exclusive, Oct. 4, 2019\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/25RYYjXoy8Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"zxx\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/NsyHBfbMjD\">pic.twitter.com\/NsyHBfbMjD<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Kofi Kingston (@TrueKofi) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TrueKofi\/status\/1180602095323373568?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Xavier Woods, Rusev, Dolph Ziggler, and NXT\u2019s Johnny Gargano tweeted out support for Kofi.<\/p>\n<p><em>Frank\u2019s Analysis: I was not a fan of the quick match. I can understand the theory behind it, and I also understand Kofi wasn\u2019t necessarily over as a champ. You can come up with some obvious theories to that but that\u2019s for another day. You wonder now if Kofi fades back into just doing the New Day stuff, or does he get a chance at redemption depending on which show he\u2019s drafted. My guess is he fades back but occasionally sneaks into a title match on TV or a B-type PPV.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Other Match Results and Segments from Last Week<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>\u2022 The Rock was on hand for the Fox debut. He and Becky Lynch were in an in-ring segment with \u201cKing\u201d Baron Corbin. They ended up attacking him and Corbin ate the Rock\u2019s People\u2019s Elbow as well as the Rock Bottom.<br \/>\n\u2022 Ahead of Hell in a Cell, Charlotte Flair teamed with Becky Lynch to defeat Sasha Banks &amp; Bayley.<br \/>\n\u2022 Seth Rollins and Shinsuke Nakamura, in a battle of champions, fought to a no-contest when the lights went out and Bray Wyatt attacked Rollins. Ironically, Rollins and Nakamura fought in the mid-card champion vs. champion match at Survivor Series in 2018 which was in the Staples Center. At least the Fiend wasn\u2019t around then to scare Rollins.<br \/>\n\u2022 Braun Strowman, Miz, and Heavy Machinery (Otis &amp; Tucker) def. Raw Tag Team Champions Robert Roode &amp; Dolph Ziggler, Randy Orton, and U.S. Champion A.J. Styles. During this match they ran the angle with Strowman and Tyson Fury which lead to their brawl on Raw.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Follow Frank on Twitter @FrankPeteani. Questions and discussion are welcome.
