Ranking Every Night One WWE 2023 Draft Pick From Worst To Best

8. Indi Hartwell

WWE Draft 2023 Drew McIntyre Indi Hartwell Bianca Belair Edge
WWE

Draft Position: #8 for SmackDown. #16 overall.

Brand Switch: NXT > Raw.

Reigning NXT Women's Champion Indi Hartwell will now ply her trade on the flagship, and that has to feel like a landmark moment for the Australian. Good on her, because she's kept plugging away even when it looked like she might be NXT for life.

Fingers crossed Hartwell looks strong when inevitably dropping that strap, then finds a place on Raw that isn't just becoming part of some random women's tag-team. That's a bit of a death spot for NXT call-ups, to be honest.

Bright days are ahead, so long as creative don't get lazy.
