WWE Draft 2021 is being talked around the IWC given this is one of the exciting nights of an entire year where the scenario of the roster gets changed. Apart from switching names from Raw to Smackdown and vice-versa, the NXT roster also exports names to the mainstay scene to keep on the fresh incomings. Overall, this is the procedure that helps WWE to shuffle things up and make things brighter.
As per the earlier reports, WWE Draft 2021 is being planned for early October but it is too early to know what they are doing at this point. But it certainly won’t stop the rumor mill from talking about the annual tradition as the fans would obviously want to predict what’s in the pipeline.
WWE Draft 2021 Date Reportedly Merged With Raw Season Premiere
Ringside News has brought some updates regarding WWE Draft 2021, recently. The source stated that Drew McIntyre is on his way to SmackDown from Raw (in return Big E expected to switch to Raw). While this is still a possibility, nothing is confirmed at this juncture.
The source was told by a tenured member of the team that the report about Drew McIntyre heading to SmackDown is “neither accurate nor inaccurate.” At this point, it is “premature,” because “the draft has not been decided.”
Drew McIntyre a top pick for WWE Draft 2021
Roman Reigns previously talked about McIntyre and it added a lot of fuel around the top superstar moving to the blue brand. During an interview with the Cheap Heat podcast, he mentioned the following,
“in a perfect world if there was an opportunity to pass the torch to [McIntyre], he’s the one guy I think that has captivated my attention in that manner, but at the same time he ain’t there and it’s only because I’m still here and so solid within my foothold, my stronghold.”
While some exciting switches are expected for WWE Draft 2021, fans will have to wait a bit more to see those, happening. Previous reports claimed that the shake-up was about to happen on August 31st and September 3rd. But on a changed circumstance, Andrew Zarian, of the Mat Men Pro Wrestling podcast, informed that October 4th is now a new date for the 2021 edition. Confirmations from WWE’s part are likely to arrive in due course.
