This writer is looking forward to seeing a few favorites show up on Raw.

Throughout the years, the draft (or lottery, depending on the year) has produced mixed results, but one thing it has done for people who mainly watch one show over another (or review one show) is that it gives them an opportunity to see certain wrestlers perform on a regular basis.

In this case, superstars like Andrade, Asuka, Aleister Black, Buddy Murphy and even Shelton Benjamin (if given a chance) could be a lot of fun to watch on the red brand in the coming months. If Paul Heyman is able to give them screen time, maybe a couple of them could stand out.

While WWE’s track record has been spotty at best, hope always springs eternal, so we’ll be optimistic here.
