10 Predictions For WWE's Brand Split 2016

1. Multiple Superstars Will Return

WWE Draft 2

With the likes of Randy Orton, Bray Wyatt, and Neville all scheduled to return from injury over the coming weeks, this drafts timing is almost too perfect for them to not launch immediate comebacks.

There are still question marks over precise comeback dates for all three (particularly long-term absentee Orton, who’s been missing since October), but the July 11th draft would be a perfect platform for any of them to make a buzz-generating return.

Not only that, but if recent reports that the WWE has been reaching-out to former employees are to be believed, we may see some unexpected names crop-up in the draft too. Regardless of how the last split turned out, it’s going to be interesting to see these rosters coming together.
