8 Superstars Who Suffered From WWE Draft 2016

7. Carmella

Curtis Axel wasn't quite the last individual chosen during the WWE Draft however, That honour went to the sixth and final NXT pick, The Princess of Staten Island, Carmella. The third female to be drafted from NXT, Carmella now finds herself on SmackDown alongside fellow NXT call-up Alexa Bliss.

Now, Carmella being brought up the main roster is a good thing, for sure. Heck, her being the last pick isn't a bad thing, a speculative choice from NXT should certainly have taken that position. The issue is less about where Carmella is, and more about where Enzo and Cass are.

Carmella is a talented individual who will certainly do good work wherever she is, but it seems like a strange move to bring her up on the opposite show to Amore and Cassady. Would all three not have benefited from their reunion, as they did in NXT?

Carmella's improved a lot in the ring over the last year or so, and some of that will go down to extra focus being put on her with Enzo and Big Cass on the main roster. Even so, I fail to see the logic in separating a money trio.
