Because of The Fiend's interference in Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns on SmackDown on FOX, RAW got the first draft pick.

SmackDown on FOX premiered last week and is already a must watch show for wrestling fans who have been demanding for change for a very long time. This week's episode saw the WWE Draft occur after years as they finally eliminated the 'Wild Card' rule. Firstly, Universal Champion Seth Rollins had to go one-on-one against his former Shield brother, Roman Reigns to determine which brand would get the first pick. However, Bray Wyatt aka The Fiend dampened the match by a sneak attack on his Hell in a Cell 2019 competitor. Hence, Seth won the match for RAW, via disqualification!

Stephanie McMahon took precedence over the WWE Draft and announced that the first pick of the night was The Man herself, Becky Lynch, who got drafted to RAW. The pick comes as no surprise as the RAW Women's Champion was anyways the hot pick for both brands, given her immense popularity that could rival any current WWE superstar. Other picks in Round 1 included Roman Reigns to SmackDown, The O.C. (AJ Styles, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson) to RAW, The Fiend to SmackDown and Drew McIntyre to RAW.
