Night 1 of the WWE Draft featured NXT call-ups for Carmelo Hayes and Kiana James
It was a busy night on WWE SmackDown, which included four rounds of picks for the WWE Draft and a number of reveals and additions to the card for WWE Backlash. There were a few true surprises in the draft picks as well, and amongst night one's 32 picks there were also two NXT call-ups, and both superstars are poised to have big impacts on their respective brands.
WHAT! FIRST ROUND #WWEDRAFT PICK @Carmelo_WWE just challenged @CodyRhodes to a match... TONIGHT! 🔥🔥🔥— WWE April 27, 2024 The next NXT call-up wouldn't happen until the final pick of the night, which was a pick for Monday Night Raw. Raw would also deliver the biggest surprise of the night with this pick, as they selected Kiana James to join the red brand.
James also provides a big heel presence for a brand that could use it. With Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley holding court in the women's division as faces, you only have Liv Morgan at the moment as your main heel now that Nia Jax is on SmackDown. Like Zoey Stark before her, James can hit the ground running when she debuts on the show and immediately mix it up with Raw's babyface powerhouses.
