What ten wrestlers would you swap and why? (Five from each show)
RAW should get:
1. Randy Orton - He just doesn't seem to fit on SD. Besides an eight month feud with the Undertaker, there really wasn't much else going for him. Cena v. Orton would sell.
2. The Undertaker - Would like to see him feud with the Rated R Superstar.
3. JBL - Could feud with HHH in the battle of who is the top dog of the company.
4. Kurt Angle - He's done his job and now it's time to go home. DX v. Team Angle, anyone?
5. Rey Mysterio - After last year's draft, anything is possible folks.
Smackdown! should get:
1. Kane - Only on SD will he have a chance of getting into the title hunt. Batista v. Kane could headline Summerslam.
2. RVD - Don't see much going on for him after the briefcase. Why not jump brands and challenge Mysterio for the World Title.
3. Edge - Would probably get a more realistic title run.
4. Eric Bishoff - Have him return and take Theodore Long's place at GM. SD would be shaken up with a heel in charge.
5. DX - Yeah right.
What are your thoughts?

I doubt there will be a draft. No need.

It pulls in strong ratings. While they havent mentioned one, I dont know, I still think they'll have one.
If they do:
SMACKDOWN GETS:
Kane
RVD
Flair
Masters
Candice Michelle
RAW GETS:
Kennedy
JBL
Mysterio
Johnny Nitro
Melena

Truthfully it is rumored theirs gonna be no draft this year. I read that the main reason was the many pre-emptions Smackdown has been getting for Baseball or whatever.

Well, if they do one...
RAW should get:
1. The Boogeyman - Ends the suspension storyline and brings him to a live audience that is more suited to his actions.
2. Randy Orton - Needs to grow up
3. Paul Burchill - Would separate him from Regal nicely while allowing him to grow
4. Jillian Hall - Another wrestler for the women's division
5. Batista - Would be a nice start as his comeback from injury
Smackdown! should get:
1. Kane - Needs the move to get into the title hunt
2. Charlie Haas - Could set up a stable with Benoit/Scott of awesome wrestlers
3. Coach - Balance out the announcing teams, so if Tazz goes to ECW, both sides have two strong announcers
4. Chavo Guererro - Not sure if the "quitting" angle is legitimate or going anywhere, but that'll be the way to bring him back into his environment. If not, Chris Masters.
5. Matt Striker - Could really fit the Smackdown style nicely.

RAW gets Orlando? Okay.  I think they should move the Intercontinental Championship to Smackdown! because it gets no respect from the flagship show. Look at the kind of attention the U.S. Title gets on SD!. It's been in the hands of Benoit, Booker T, and JBL for the past few months and the storylines are actually good. If they did this with the IC strap, it may very well just save the cred of the title.

Ok, all of the ideas I just read for the draft were really horrible, I'm sorry. The idea of moving Randy Orton back to Raw is just plain stupid, because not only it would make the 2005 draft redundant, but also Randy Orton established himself as the top heel on Smackdown! so he DOES fit into Smackdown! The same reason goes for Dave Batista. I think Chad said it the best in which there really is no point for a draft. However, I would like to see Angle move back to Raw.

Again, you contradict yourself. You wouldn't move Orton back to RAW but you would move Angle, in the name of redundancy? In case you were hitting the bong during the weeks leading up to 'Mania, Angle was the top face on SD!. So over, he was wearing the World Heavyweight Title. Huh, imagine that. So you would move Angle back and not Orton because........

because Randy Orton fits on Smackdown! perfectly, and if Batista wasn't injured, Angle would have stayed on Raw. When they moved Angle back to Smackdown!, they made his move to Raw redundant. I think they should have went by the 2005 draft. There was still enough superstars on Raw for Angle to fued with.

Indeed. I was waiting for a HHH vs. Angle feud.
Though, eventhough it would hurt SD!'s heel situation, I do think Kennedy suits Raw better. Seems like he'd get over more on Raw. Also, I'd separate MNM. Put Nitro on Raw. I changed my mind on moving JBL, cause SD! needs a top heel that can use the mic.
I do stand beside who I'd move to Smackdown from Raw though.
