Ranking Every Night One WWE 2023 Draft Pick From Worst To Best
2. Imperium
Draft Position: #3 for SmackDown. #6 overall.
Brand Switch: SmackDown > Raw.
Praise the wrestling Gods for ensuring that Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci went along as part of the Imperium package with GUNTHER. They'd be a bit lost without the Intercontinental Champion right now, so it's cool that WWE plans to keep the group together.
They did very well in the Draft - being SmackDown's third pick is not to be sniffed at. This also means that United States Champ and fellow heel Austin Theory will likely jump to SmackDown during the second part of the Draft, which is also great for him.
Having the IC prize back on Raw feels fairly refreshing in 2023.
