If you want to do the draft right, do a two round draft focusing on the prospects - Raw and Smackdown each get to draft two people (or tag-teams) per year to their roster from NXT. Not only does this follow the traditional model of drafting (like every other ####ing major league does on the continent), it hypes up the NXT talent far more and establishes a prospect system better. They can equate all three brands all they want; but let's be honest, NXT exists to feed the next generation of talent to Raw and Smackdown.
That's a great idea. And at the draft, you could have the brands make trades to try and acquire additional picks if you really want to shift veteran talent from one to the other. That would also add to the intrigue.
