Of the wrestlers eligible to be selected last night, Bianca Belair went first overall in the 2024 WWE Draft.
The draft began with SmackDown and Raw each making eight selections on last night's SmackDown episode. Belair (SmackDown) and Jey Uso (Raw) were the first picks for each brand. Carmelo Hayes also went to SmackDown and Seth Rollins went to Raw in the first round.
It didn't take long for former NXT Champion Hayes to make his in-ring debut as a SmackDown wrestler. He confronted Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Cody Rhodes and then faced Rhodes in last night's main event. Hayes lost the non-title match but earned Rhodes' respect in the process.
SmackDown also added Randy Orton, Nia Jax, LA Knight, The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga & Paul Heyman), AJ Styles, and Andrade to its roster.
Raw selected Bron Breakker, Liv Morgan, Ricochet, Sheamus, Alpha Academy (Chad Gable, Otis, Akira Tozawa & Maxxine Dupri), and NXT's Kiana James.
After the show went off the air, there were some additional draft picks announced on social media. Baron Corbin, The O.C. (Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson & Michin), and Cedric Alexander & Ashante "Thee" Adonis were selected by SmackDown. Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn, Ivar, Shayna Baszler, and Zoey Stark have been drafted to Raw.
The final night of the draft takes place on Raw this Monday. The list of wrestlers eligible to be picked can be seen here .
