Ranking Every 2019 WWE Draft Pick So Far From Worst To Best

16. Nikki Cross

Draft Position: #10 to Raw. #18 overall.

USA Network execs instantly looked like total f*cking morons when they ignored the Draft rule sheet to pick Nikki Cross on her own. She's part of a tag-team these days, and isn't a solo act who needs one separate slot on the roster. Who booked that to happen right after the announcers had run through the (fairly convoluted) rules?

Cross being on Raw hardly feels like a major seismic shift considering that's where she's been spending the bulk of her time anyway. Raw was her home show before this Draft, making her announcement flatter than that Kabuki Warriors title change recently.
