Vince Russo, a former RAW head writer, recently expressed his thoughts on the WWE Draft under the Triple H regime. While acknowledging Triple H’s influence, Russo believes there’s room for improvement.
The draft, spanning from SmackDown to RAW, concluded with some top talents staying put on their respective brands.
Despite champions being protected, key figures like Seth Rollins, The Bloodline, Drew McIntyre, CM Punk, Jey Uso, and Gunther remained unchanged.
Russo shared his ideas on making the draft more dynamic during the Legion of RAW podcast.
He suggested giving networks control over the draft to inject freshness into matchups and storylines, preventing complaints. He elaborated on his viewpoint:
“I literally would let the networks draft, because, first of all now they can’t say anything, now they can never question why is Cody on SmackDown, why is this, when you drafted your roster so I as a shoot would let USA Network draft, you know, Fox draft and and then bro you tell me who’s on what side and I’ll write the show.”
He also criticized the creative team’s perceived limitations, suggesting they lacked the ingenuity to execute such a strategy effectively.
“Bro that’s literally what..they’re not creative enought to do that bro, they couldn’t do that in a million year, that’s the way it should be done bro.”
Now that the draft is over, fans await how these decisions will shape the future of WWE programming under Triple H’s leadership.
