Keep it going. We are in the middle of the 2021 WWE Draft and that means we are seeing the WWE’s rosters shaken up in a huge way. There were several picks made during this week’s SmackDown and there will be even more made next week on Monday Night Raw. However, there are some other picks being made in the middle and some of them were quite big as well.

There were more Draft picks made during this week’s edition of Talking Smack. Monday Night Raw made eleven picks while SmackDown made six, though two of Monday Night Raw’s picks were tag teams. The tag team of Mace and T-Bar have been split up, with Mace going to SmackDown and T-Bar going to Monday Night Raw. Here are all of the picks made on Saturday:

Monday Night Raw
24/7 Champion Reggie
Akira Tozawa
Alpha Academy (Chad Gable & Otis)
Apollo Crews & Commander Azeez
Doudrop
Drake Maverick
John Morrison
T-Bar
Nia Jax
R-Truth
Zelina Vega

SmackDown
Toni Storm
Aliyah
Drew Gulak
Mansoor
Mustafa Ali
Mace

There are some big names here. Check out the announcements and some of the bigger names:

Aliyah, John Morrison, Reggie and more are selected in the WWE Draft: Talking Smack, Oct. 2, 2021

Rhea Ripley vs. Nia Jax: Raw, Aug. 2, 2021

Mansoor & Mustafa Ali vs. MACE & T-BAR: Raw, July 26, 2021

Opinion: This is where things can get fun, as you see things like Mace and T-Bar being split up and some tag teams being shifted around. The tag divisions have needed some major freshening up for a long time and some new teams going elsewhere is a good thing. The Draft is supposed to do just that and they have gotten off to a nice start this year. Hopefully Monday Night Raw can keep that going, because it kind of needs to.
