A couple of weeks ago, Triple H appeared on the April 7 edition of Friday Night SmackDown to deliver a piece of special news to the WWE Universe. He announced that the WWE Draft will take place shortly. And the day has come. This week’s edition of the blue brand saw the first round of the draft.

During the draft announcement, ‘Hunter’ promised “it would truly change the game.” And WWE has delivered on its promise. The first round of the superstar shakeup was crazy and will result in major changes going ahead. However, the WWE Universe is not happy with some of the wrestling company’s choices. Let us find out why.

SmackDown landed the first pick in the first round of WWE Draft Night One. As its first pick, the blue brand chose The WWE Undisputed Universal Champion, Roman Reigns. He was not alone in joining the brand. Paul Heyman and Solo Sikoa accompanied him. Smackdown acquired the trio in the first round.

RAW got the second pick. And the brand chose Cody Rhodes as its top pick from the WWE superstar roster. ‘The American Nightmare’ and ‘The Tribal Chief’ have been feuding ever since the former won the Royal Rumble and challenged the latter for his title.

Though he was unsuccessful in his attempt, fans were hoping sooner or later, their feud will have a proper and deserving end. But it looks like that will not be happening for a long time. As superstars are bound to perform within their brands for a year after the WWE Draft, Reigns, and Rhodes’ epic rivalry might come to a halt.

Fans were quick to voice their discontent with this unorthodox choice by the WWE.

The WWE Universe is unhappy with the WWE Draft

This aggravated the WWE Universe as they were dying to see ‘The American Nightmare’ fulfill his American Dream and win the title from ‘The Head of the Table’. Fans feel now he won’t be able to complete his unfinished story.

Plus, recently ‘HHH’ announced a new World Heavyweight Championship for the RAW brand. The WWE Universe believes Rhodes will shift his attention to winning the new title in the WWE picture.

Fans are certainly not happy with how WWE is proceeding with its future storyline.

Fans think that this sudden twist in the storyline will definitely kill the 37-year-old’s momentum going on forwards. The WWE Universe wanted to see him stripping the titles from Reigns’ shoulders and complete his story.
