25 top moments in Raw history as voted on by the WWE Universe

Four WWE Superstars who defined Raw today and in the beginning...

#10 John Cena comes to Raw as the #1 draft pick (June 6, 2005)

Wh
John Cena was in the middle of his first WWE Championship reign when he was drafted to Raw in 2005...

After Vince McMahon purchased WCW in 2001, the roster was as deep as it had ever been, which prompted the first ever brand split in 2002. Every year after that, a draft lottery would be held to shake up the roster, and in 2005, Monday Night Raw had the top pick, and they received the top star of the company.

The WWE Champion, John Cena, would move to Monday Night Raw and briefly leave SmackDown without a world champion until WWE World Champion Batista would be drafted at the end of the night.

While it was a cool moment, and the WWE Universe wasn't chanting "Cena sucks" yet, in no way do I think it deserved to be ranked ahead of the DX Invasion, Steve Austin clocking Vince McMahon with a bedpan, or almost every one of the moments ranked 25 to 11.
