2020 WWE Draft Officially Announced

WWE will be doing the next draft in two weeks.

It had been rumored for some time that WWE would be doing a draft sometime in the later half of 2020. It was first rumored for August, then pushed to September, and now we know it will take place in October.

During tonight’s Clash of Champions pay-per-view, WWE announced that the draft will take place in October and like last year be over two nights. The draft will kick off on Smackdown on October 9th and then conclude on RAW three days later on October 12th. This marks the fifth year in a row that WWE has held some sort of a draft.

The future is on the clock.

Back in August Triple H did confirm that a draft was coming and even hinted that NXT could be involved as well. Not mention of NXT was made during the announcement on Sunday night.
