WWE Draft Picks, Week 2

Another interesting week for the WWE draft, with both the Raw and Smackdown picks being some of the bigger names in wrestling.

So, one of the WWE's best performers, Kurt Angle, is now on Raw. He's already got two matches lined up, one against Batista next Monday, then another versus Shawn Michaels at Vengeance the following Sunday. Better yet, though, is the fact that this is a bit of a fresh start for Angle, who was in some questionable stories lately on Smackdown (Such as the feud with Booker T. and his wife. Oy.). Hopefully Raw can get better use out of the guy. He deserves it.

Meanwhile, Randy Orton shows up on Smackdown, quickly making his presence known by taking out the Undertaker. Presumably Orton, who's just returned after a break of several months due to a shoulder injury (Caused, in part, by the Undertaker himself), will feud with the 'Taker for the next little while. We'll see if ole "Legend-killer" Orton can actually get anywhere with that.

Some surprising developments here. Despite predictions from myself, and, I'm sure, many others, no second or third-stringers have been traded yet. Really makes you wonder who's next.
