According to the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio, it appears that WWE still plans to hold its annual Draft sometime this year, but fitting it into the company’s packed event schedule presents a challenge.
When discussing the possibility of a 2025 Draft, WrestleVotes confirmed their expectation that one will occur, though a specific date remains elusive. “Plans for the draft? Yeah, I do believe so,” the report stated. “TC, I don’t think you’ve heard a date. I haven’t heard a date.”
The uncertainty stems from a dense period of premium live events and specials on the horizon. Outlining the difficulty, WrestleVotes noted, “The calendar gets a little tricky here. You’re going to get Backlash next week [May 10th]. You’re going to get Saturday Night’s Main Event two weeks after that, you’re going to get Money in the Bank two weeks after that… three weeks after that, you get the Saudi Arabia show. Then, a week after that, you get the rumored Evolution show. And then you calm down a bit before SummerSlam.”
This busy stretch, running from early May through early July, leaves few clear windows to schedule the multi-night Draft event across Raw and SmackDown. “So there’s a lot going on. I don’t know exactly when and where they can pencil this Draft in, but I would expect one to happen,” WrestleVotes concluded.
