8 Teams That Were Stupidly Split Up In WWE Drafts

SAnitY was doomed to fail from the moment WWE called them up to SmackDown in unspectacular fashion, so their unceremonious split in the 2019 WWE Draft shouldn't have come as much of a surprise to fans.

Although Eric Young, Killian Dain, Alexander Wolfe and Nikki Cross were positioned more as the gatekeepers of NXT than anything else, they played their roles well and helped elevate a ton of talent. When it came time for them to be called up following WrestleMania in 2018, they deserved an opportunity to show what they could do.

They never got it.

Instead, they floundered for the year they were on SmackDown and went their separate ways in the 2019 Superstar Shake-Up. Young went to Raw, Dain returned to NXT, and Wolfe migrated over to NXT UK.

Dain and Wolfe had much more success than Young, but even still, all three of them were eventually released, leaving Cross (now Nikki A.S.H.) as the lone surviving member of SAnitY. Who knows what would have happened had WWE actually given the stable a shot and not given up on them so quickly.
