Ranking Every 2021 WWE Draft Pick So Far From Worst To Best

by Jamie Kennedy

1. Edge

Edge WWE Raw
WWE

Draft Position: #4 to Raw. #8 overall.

Brand Switch: SmackDown to Raw.

Ladies and gents, your winner.

Edge to Raw makes the most sense. He warred with Roman extensively, is nearly finished battling secondary heel Seth Rollins and didn't have anything interesting on the horizon for SmackDown after that. Jumping to Raw should open things right back up for the 'Rated-R Superstar'.

Yes, there's another leg of the Draft to go (so this could change), but who'd scoff at Edge vs. AJ Styles? Or, how about Edge vs. Sheamus in a hard-hitting brawl. Or, maybe Edge vs. Riddle, Keith Lee or Bobby Lashley is more your thing.

All of those are viable options open to Edge, and they weren't before.
