WWE Draft 2021 comes into effect after WWE Crown Jewel

WWE Draft 2021 comes into effect after WWE Crown Jewel

Roman Reigns was the first pick of the Draft

WWE Crown Jewel is the next big event on the cards. On the other hand, the Draft 2021 is officially in the cards. Several Champions moved across rosters, some stayed on the same brand, a couple of tag teams were broken and a few new faces were introduced to the main roster. But there is still nearly a month to go before the recently announced WWE Draft comes into effect.

On the latest episode of WWE Raw, which was also the second night of the WWE Draft 2021, the commentators announced that the renewed rosters will be seen after WWE Crown Jewel. While many expected the changes in roster to come into effect from the upcoming episodes itself, but the recent announcement makes sense considering there are already ongoing storylines, which are likely to conclude at WWE’s upcoming event in Saudi Arabia.

In fact, the latest episode of the Red brand continued with Superstars appearing from both the rosters. This essentially shows that WWE is keeping in mind the post – Crown Jewel feuds too.

One possibility that WWE might look into is to have Superstars appear across the brands, ignoring the Brand Split. But one big hurdle that arises with this idea is the fact that both the main roster shows air on different channels and agreement from both these stakeholders is required!
