The WWE is nearing its much awaited WWE draft and one person who would have loved to be around is Eric Bischoff. He was around during the first brand split and has served as a general manager before.
Eric Bischoff wants in
Bischoff was best known as a heel-like figure though he did an outstanding job acting out the role. Given the chance, he wouldn’t mind doing it again if he would be called up to do so.
If Bischoff does return, money will not be the reason behind it. He confesses how he loves wrestling and missing the grind of a pretty hectic schedule per Wrestling News. Bischoff is currently busy with projects with Bischoff-Hervey Entertainment so it will be interesting if Vince McMahon and company will consider re-inserting him.
Rules for WWE Draft 2016
The WWE Draft officially takes place this Tuesday when SmackDown Live premieres on the USA Network. It will be a historic night for the company with fans eager to know who goes where.
The premiere will be a two-hour show so it will be interesting how things will go down. The WWE tries to educated viewers on what to expect, listing down the rules via WWE.com.
Worth noting is that RAW will make the first overall pick. This means that the show will likely use to that to pluck out the show’s franchise star. There is now word on who that could be though Brock Lesnar could be a top choice seeing how his stock skyrocketed following his UFC 200 triumph.
Other points worth noting is that Smackdown Live is a two-hour show while Raw is three hours. Per the rules, for every two picks SmackDown Live receives, Raw will receive three picks. Tag teams technically count as one though such is subject to change in the event that the show commissioner or general manager only wants one member of the team.
The draft will not be limited to the Raw and Smackdown roster. Six draft picks from the NXT roster will also go down. A complete list of the stars can be found here.
