Actual Pick: Lita

With the final pick of the draft, Ric Flair selects Kane (seven rounds after he ridiculously actually selected him). Kane is fresh off a WrestleMania loss to Kurt Angle.

With Kane, Flair gets extreme durability. Kane is one of the most underrated acts in WWE history, making chicken salad out of chicken you-know-what, acting the hell out of every crappy storyline WWE put in front of him (Katie Vick, May 19th, Shocked Testicles, etc.).

Kane unmasked in 2003, adding a new layer to his character. He is a shoo-in Hall of Famer currently in the twilight of his career.
