WWE Draft is a process of refreshing the WWE rosters, by trading WWE superstars from one brand to another, primarily between Raw and SmackDown. WWE introduced the brand split in 2002, to extend the company into two brands by introducing SmackDown as the new roster.

The WWE Drafts had played a major role in the company and had brought a number of changes to the company including the brand exclusive superstars, exclusive championship titles, wild card rule, brand supremacy, exclusive events, separate managers, commentators and much more.

So far the company has hosted 17 WWE Drafts and this year marks the 18th traditional Draft. Being in the Draft season, here is everything you need to know, inculding the date time, telecast details and the participating brands.
