Meanwhile, on the 12 October edition of Raw, Dolph Ziggler and comeback king Robert Roode were moved to SmackDown as part of Stephanie McMahon's fifth round of picks that evening. Those guys (who, remember, had just been drafted) literally worked a Raw Tag-Team Title match in the very next segment.

No joke.

Wouldn't USA cancel that match? After all, it's not like they didn't already know Ziggler and Roode were SmackDown-bound before Steph's announcement. Why would they even risk the chance that those guys could then take Raw's Tag belts over to SmackDown?
