#2 Best: Not splitting up any real tag teams

Despite the fact that a lot of people have been saying that nothing really happened in the draft, is it necessarily a bad thing if you look at the larger picture? WWE has often made knee jerk reactions just to make drafts newsworthy and noteworthy and in many ways, I'm glad that this did not happen at all, in the latest edition.

Roode and Ziggler will remain a tag team unit and so will The New Day. There was a bit of tension around Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross breaking up but we later learned that such would not be the case at all, because they were drafted first to RAW and then, subsequently, to WWE SmackDown on FOX.

Did Goldberg ruin Bray Wyatt's career? - Watch Now!

In many ways, WWE has maintained the status quo with Lashley and Rusev on the same brand, and this allows storylines to progress without any glitches along the way, as it happens so very often in the company.

My only major grouse would be separating The Revival and Randy Orton, who had seemed to coexist quite well as a trio. But then again, it didn't seem like they'd be together for the long haul.
