WWE Supplemental Draft Live Coverage: WWE continues to reshuffle the deck with more roster changes

WWE is announcing a pick in their supplemental draft every 10 minutes. Refresh this page for the latest updates.

(1) Mark Henry to ECW (from Smackdown): A logical move given that none of the wrestlers in Sunday's ECW Title match were actually members of the ECW roster. I guess Henry has to be the favorite to win that match unless Big Show or Kane are moved to ECW via the draft.

(2) Jamie Noble to Raw (from Smackdown): Noble also works as an agent behind the scenes, so one can only assume that he'll be playing that role for the Raw brand.

(3) Trevor Murdoch to Smackdown (from Raw): Prowrestling.net Podcast listeners know that the rumor for a while has been that Murdoch and Lance Cade would end up on opposite brands. Here's hoping Smackdown lead writer Michael Hayes eliminates the silly singing gimmick.

(4) Big Daddy V to Smackdown (from ECW): Well, he spent plenty of time there before he took time off to lose weight. Will mouthpiece Matt Striker follow him?

(5) Deuce to Raw (from Smackdown): Well, that's one way to finalize the Deuce and Domino breakup. I assume one or both of them will be repackaged.

(6) D.H. Smith to Smackdown (from Raw): I guess this means D.H. Smith won't be part of the rumored second generation faction on Raw. This may not seem like a big move, but it could be. WWE vice president of talent relations John Laurinaitis has told numerous people that he feels Smith is a future superstar. It's also worth noting that Smith will be on the same brand as Nattie Neidhart.

(7) Hornswoggle to ECW (from Smackdown): Wow! What a coup for ECW. Ugh. The obvious question is whether Finlay will follow. I hope not.

(8) Super Crazy to ECW (from Raw): This move is long overdue. He has history in the original ECW and he was being wasted on Raw. I'm don't think he'll get a big push on ECW, but he should at least get some television time.

(9) Chuck Palumbo to Raw (from Smackdown): Every 10 minutes my ass. They snuck in an extra 10 minutes with the Crazy and Palumbo picks. I dig Palumbo's biker gimmick more than most people. He was underutilized on Smackdown. By the way, I just added the Raw ratings on the main page.

(10) Brian Kendrick to Smackdown (from Raw): It would be fun if Paul London followed and they somehow worked a program with John Morrison and The Miz, who are still technically ECW wrestlers. Then again, I'd really like to see London get a singles push even if it's at the ECW level. I think Kendrick needs London more than London needs Kendrick at this point.

(11) Matt Striker to Raw (from ECW): It looks like Striker's days of playing Big Daddy V's mouthpiece are over. Striker wasn't getting much mic time on ECW lately and I can't imagine it's going to get any better on Raw. Then again, he can talk and we all know how much Raw lead writer Brian Gewirtz loves comedy.

(12) Maria to Smackdown (from Raw): The first Diva selected in the draft. Now they can edit any spots she blows in post-production. I wrote, "She blows." Insert the Beavis and Butthead laughs.

(13) Shelton Benjamin to Smackdown (from ECW): I guess this means Shelton can get lost in the shuffle on the suddenly crowded Smackdown roster. Does this mean we've seen the last Benjamin vs. Kofi Kingston match for a while? Too bad. They were developing good chemistry and had their best match last night on ECW television.

(14) Finlay to ECW (from Smackdown): The "father and son" duo is reunited. Finlay works as an agent behind the scenes and he should help some of the younger ECW wrestlers improve by working programs with them, not to mention the work he'll continue to do with them off camera.

(15) Carlito to Smackdown (from Raw): That's not cool. I was hoping that Carlito would move to the ECW brand where he could play a big fish in a small pond role. Instead, he joins the crowded Smackdown roster with his old pal Triple H. We've probably seen the last of the Carlito and Santino Marella tag team for a while.

(16) Layla to Raw (from ECW): Yawn. I guess the good news is that we won't have to watch her wrestle Kelly Kelly 200 more times on ECW.

(17) Kofi Kingston to Raw (from ECW): WWE was nice enough to let us digest that Layla pick for several extra minutes. I'm sure offices across the world were buzzing. I like the Kofi switch. He was getting over on ECW and this will give him a chance to work with some bigger names like he did on Monday when had an entertaining match with JBL. If nothing else, at least we don't have to listen to Mike Adamle say, "Jamaican Me Crazy" every week.

Notes: That's wraps up the 2008 WWE Supplemental Draft. Was it everything you hoped it would be? I'm surprised that John Morrison and The Miz didn't switch brands since they hold the Smackdown version of the tag titles and ECW is moving to Monday nights. For that matter, they're facing new ECW performers Finlay and Hornswoggle at the pay-per-view on Sunday. I was holding out hope that MVP would move to Raw, but I figured he was too big of a name to be included in the supplemental draft.
