WWE Reveals 2023 Draft Date?

Mark your calendars. Last week on SmackDown, Triple H announced that the 2023 edition of the WWE draft would be taking place very soon. But when exactly will things be shaken up again?

According to the The WRKD Wrestling Twitter account, the Draft is slated to take place on May 8th from Jacksonville, Florida. You can see the tweet below:

From our own Thomas Hall:

There were few details included but Triple H said that it will take place in a few weeks with “every” Superstar being eligible. Triple H also said that it will “change the game” without specifying what it will mean. This is the first Draft since October 2021 and will be the first in the spring since 2019.

 

Editor’s Opinion:

This date actually makes sense because it would begin on the Raw after the next premium live event, Backlash, on May 6th from Puerto Rico, and before the Saudi Arabia PLE event, King and Queen of the Ring, later that month. You can begin angles at Backlash and have them continue into Raw, NXT and Smackdown the following week. Either way, I think this will be a fun time for wrestling fans as new feuds will begin and things will be shaken up one more time!
