This wasn’t necessarily a breaking announcement, but it’s something that hasn’t been referenced all that much in the hectic build-up to the Draft.

With SmackDown now moving to its live slot on Tuesday’s, that means that logistically it’s far more feasible to stage a live pre-show on the WWE Network—much like they do with Raw already. Byron Saxton revealed the show’s details; an all-star panel talking all things WWE Draft, taking place at 7pm EST on the WWE Network.

Though he didn’t mention who that all-star panel would actually be composed of—and WWE.com are being equally vague—the Raw pre-show currently features Scott Stanford, Corey Graves, and Booker T on its line-up. I’m not sure I’d necessarily call that an all-star panel, though, so perhaps we could see some former legends showing their faces for SmackDown's pre-show.

There’s also the small matter that one of the trio from the Raw pre-show could find themselves being drafted on the SmackDown show itself… Corey Graves; I'm looking at you, mate.
