WWE Backstage (April 28th, 2020) - 5 Takeaways from this week's episode

#1 The Draft, WWE Backstage style

The Scottish Psychopath made each list.

The 2020 NFL Draft is in the books. Renee Young asked each panelist which five stars they would choose if they had to build a promotion from the ground up. Booker T went first, picking the Queen of Spades, Shayna Baszler suggesting, "I need my women's division to be strong and as real as it can possibly be."

He also chose Rhea Ripley, saying that he looks at her as a diamond and "she just needs a little polish on her" before she's a bonafide star. His third choice was WWE Champion Drew McIntyre because "he's a guy that I need because he is a bonafide heavyweight."

His last two choices were Roman Reigns because "there is not a better leader" and another former WWE Champion in AJ Styles. He wants Styles because "you need a guy that's going to bring the noise every PPV and give you five-stars every match."

Christian chose his best friend, Edge, first because he felt, "all you have to look at is the Championship pedigree. He elevates talent." He also chose Ripley because "she's this good lately and hasn't even hit her potential." His last three choices were Aleister Black because "he's unflappable and has ice in his veins", McIntyre because "he's the heir apparent", and Bray Wyatt because "the guy's a generational talent".

Mark Henry was last, first picking Kevin Owens, adding that "KO can do it all. Good, bad, or indifferent, he gets the job done. He elevates the talent." Henry also picked Randy Orton as "he's in his prime but he still has room to grow" and because "he can lead the rest of the roster." Like the other two before him, he chose McIntyre who "went away as a kid and came back as a grown man and beat The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar."

His lone female pick was Charlotte Flair because "she's the one that everybody can battle to see who is second or until someone grows into the position to dethrone her." The final pick was Lesnar. Henry claimed that: "Brock is going to come back angry. I don't think he's coming for the title. I think he's coming for Drew." Renee topped things off by saying "no Seth or Becky Lynch? Very surprising."
