The WWE draft concluded Tuesday Night with 59 WWE superstars finding themselves wearing Raw red or SmackDown Live blue. Some of the picks were expected. Some of them were not. Brian Campbell and Tim Fiorvanti, representing Raw and SmackDown Live, respectively, look ahead at whats next for each of the brands.Brian Campbell: Why Raw won the draftRoster: Seth Rollins, Charlotte, Finn Balor, Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, The New Day, Sami Zayn, Sasha Banks, Chris Jericho, Rusev (and Lana), Kevin Owens, Enzo and Big Cass, Gallows and Anderson, Big Show, Nia Jax, Neville, Cesaro, Sheamus, Golden Truth, Titus ONeil, Paige, Darren Young, Sin Cara, Jack Swagger, The Dudley Boyz, Summer Rae, Mark Henry, Braun Strowman, Bo Dallas, Shining Stars, Alicia Fox, Dana Brooke, Curtis Axel.Its far from surprising that the flagship three-hour Raw would come out of the WWE draft with most of the advantages. Logistically, with an extra hour of programming to fill each week, Raw was given three picks per round for every two made by SmackDown. In addition, Raw is run by a heel commissioner in Stephanie McMahon, which naturally provides the show with resources in order to gain sympathy for their dark horse opponent.When you take a minute and compare the two rosters, however, the difference for Raw is almost an embarrassment of riches. While SmackDown is built strongly on the foundation of WWE champion Dean Ambrose, John Cena and top heels AJ Styles and Bray Wyatt, Raw has just about everyone else.The intention of the brand extension is to create legitimate in-house competition between both brands. But after Tuesdays draft, there really isnt any competition on paper.Raw possesses the two most popular tag teams (The New Day, Enzo Amore and Big Cass) and the two biggest rivals on the Intercontinental title level in Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. Raw will also be home to the two women who are head and shoulders above everyone else in the company -- WWE champion Charlotte and Sasha Banks.In addition, Raw boasts NXTs top pure talent in Finn Balor, who not only appears ready to enter the main event level, but has an opportunity to reunite with Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson from their days in Japan as The Bullet Club. All this and I havent yet mentioned the three biggest names on the Raw roster: Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar.One thing SmackDown does have is a group of promising and unproven talent, not to mention an underdog identity behind the on-screen leadership of babyface commissioner Shane McMahon and GM Daniel Bryan. But if you only have time to watch one WWE show each week, that show will be Raw. End of discussion.Raws biggest stealRaw had a number of them, including The New Day slipping to No. 10 and Rusev at No. 16., but nothing tops Enzo Amore and Big Cass at No. 20. While the smack-talking duo still have more to prove in the ring, they are solid gold on the mic and, like The New Day, can carry a 15-20 minute segment on their own. They also represent something fresh and new about where WWE is headed, which would have made them an instant cornerstone for SmackDown had they been taken earlier.Raw: Best potential feud to makeSeriously, take your pick on the entire Raw roster from Charlotte-Sasha Banks to Finn Balor-Kevin Owens and a second helping of Seth Rollins-Roman Reigns. But one that truly intrigues me is the idea of seeing how Rusev would do against an elite opponent as physical as Brock Lesnar. Considering the bad press of Lesnars drug testing issues following his one-off return to the UFC, pairing him with a nasty heel like the Bulgarian Brute may be the best medicine to steal back some cheers.Biggest surpriseSeeing who didnt get drafted from NXT was more surprising than the list of six who were called up. While its smart for WWE to protect its developmental third brand by leaving behind a core of established names to sell tickets, the uber-charismatic Shinsuke Nakamura couldve potentially been the wild card for SmackDown in terms of the one name with the most potential to cross over worldwide on the main brand.The trade Id make right nowWith the announcement on Monday that Raw would become the exclusive home for the WWEs new cruiserweight division, it seems odd that Kalisto was drafted on SmackDown. A trade to Raw would not only reunite him with Lucha Dragons teammate Sin Cara, it would rightfully place him alongside a returning Neville as the faces of the new division. Considering Raws incredible depth, sending Cesaro in return to SmackDown would greatly increase his chances of competing on the upper card.Fiorvanti: Why SmackDown Live won the draftRoster: Dean Ambrose, AJ Styles, John Cena, Randy Orton, Bray Wyatt, Becky Lynch, The Miz (and Maryse), Baron Corbin, American Alpha, Dolph Ziggler, Natalya, Alberto Del Rio, The Usos, Kane, Kalisto, Naomi, The Ascension, Zack Ryder, Apollo Crews, Alexa Bliss, Breezango, Eva Marie, The Vaudevillains, Erick Rowan, Mojo Rawley, Carmella.There are a lot of things working in SmackDown Lives favor. In the first round, they drafted the WWE Champion in Dean Ambrose, whos been given a lot more air time of late and is one best workers in the business right now. Plus, in AJ Styles, they get one of the most exciting heels. You cant ask for much more than that in your first two picks, and then you get the franchise with your third and fourth picks. John Cena is back to where it all started, anchoring SmackDown Live as the veteran presence and transcendent generational star, and then added his long-time nemesis, Randy Orton.Id be lying if I said I loved Wyatt without the family, but you cant deny his potential, and adding the Intercontinental Champion The Miz gives you a strong start to the upper-midcard.Among NXT talents with potential, you cant do much better than American Alpha, and as far as now or never, its time to give Mojo Rowley his chance to sink or swim.SmackDown Live also has an intriguing womens division with (currently) no title to fight for, but theres great excitement ahead for the trio of Becky Lynch, Alexa Bliss and Carmella.SmackDown Lives biggest stealIts a toss-up between Cena at seventh overall versus Wyatt in the third round. Im going to give the thinnest of edges to getting Cena, who brings some serious gravitas and legitimacy to Smackdown as a brand.SmackDown Lives best potential feud to makeI think a showdown between AJ Styles and Dolph Ziggler would work two-fold. It would give AJ a chance to face off with an equally dynamic opponent that could truly spotlight his abilities, and Dolph gets a badly needed high-profile opponent to dig him out of the pit of mediocrity hes been stuck in for far too long.Biggest surpriseHow did Bayley not get drafted? The company does need to keep a few stars around to keep NXT viable, but its mind-boggling that shes been leapfrogged by Nia Jax, Carmella and Alexa Bliss in getting the call. She deserved to be on the main roster when Charlotte, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch were called up, and shes long past overdue now.The trade Id make right nowI see no good reason to separate Braun Strowman from the Wyatt family right now. Ill trade the Usos to let them contend for the tag titles in an ever-improving RAW tag team division and get the family back together to run roughshod over SmackDown Live.

Cheap Custom Knicks Jersey . - Goaltender Philippe Desrosiers of the Rimouski Oceanic has broken a shutout record that was only three months old in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. LONDON -- It was a foreboding touch to hear a gong-type noise played on U.K. television coverage as Andy Murray failed to save a fifth set point against Kei Nishikori in an epic 18-minute first-set tiebreaker on Wednesday.A similar booming sound played over Arthur Ashe Stadiums loudspeakers in Septembers US Open. After the mysterious noise, Murray melted down in a five-set quarterfinal defeat to Nishikori. But this time, Murray just about regrouped at the World Tour Finals to beat the world No. 5 6-7 (9), 6-4, 6-4.He still flirted with disaster here. Several times he got wound up into a similar state of agitation as he had in that fourth set at Flushing Meadows; he was distracted throughout, remonstrating with himself and shouting at his box.I didnt feel like I was hitting the ball as well as I would have liked, Murray later told a news conference. He was dictating so many of the points. For me it was frustrating. Didnt matter whether I tried to hit the ball a bit harder, adjusted my position on the court, nothing was making me hit the ball cleaner.As the match went on, I was getting kind of frustrated, then becoming like sarcastic with myself that I couldnt seem to hit the ball as clean as I wanted to. Yeah, I dont often do that, but today I was definitely being more sarcastic towards myself than usual.His frustrations almost cost him dearly when he failed to take two set points at 5-4 in the second set, having already been broken back once. He then needed four games to finally put away Nishikori, after building a 5-1 lead in the decider.No doubt about it, this was a step up in class for the Scot -- not since his French Open final defeat to Novak Djokovic in June had he faced a top-five opponent.There was nothing really in it, Murray admitted. He could have won in two sets, for sure. He was dictating many points. He had a number of chances.Murrays place in the semifinals is far from guaranteed, though, after Stan Wawrinka?rebounded from an opening loss to beat Marin Cilic 7-6 (3), 7-6 (3) in Wednesdays evening session at Londons O2 Arena.If Wawrinka beats Murray in two sets, and Nishikori wins against Cilic, then Murray will be out of the tournament and Djokovic will finish as year-end No. 1. But if Cilic gets his first win here, Murray and Wawrinka will both qualify for the semifinals regardless.All I know is if I want to have a chance to qualify, I need to win, said Wawrinka. Thats all I know. Thats all Im trying to do.ddddddddddddIm going to try to play my best tennis, to beat the world No. 1. Its going to be a tough match. We played many times each other. Hes playing his best tennis so far. Its going to be interesting. Im happy to play here in front of his home crowd. Im sure its going to be a great atmosphere.One man who definitely wont be here at the weekend is Gael Monfils, who withdrew from the Tour Finals with a rib injury that he first picked up in Stockholm last month. The Frenchman had lost his opening two matches to Milos Raonic and Dominic Thiem -- Djokovic will now play alternate David Goffin in his final round robin match Thursday.Definitely I cant play for tomorrow because I still feel worse and worse, my ribs, that I had lately, Monfils told a news conference. Yeah, I feel that even yesterday was tough in the game. I feel unfortunately today I couldnt be feeling great and couldnt practice, so I just decide that I couldnt play tomorrow.Monfils announcement pushed Murrays own news conference even further back -- the Scot had already been scheduled to come in to press two hours after his match against Nishikori finished.I was in the ice bath after the match, he said when he finally turned up. That obviously helps kind of make you feel a bit better. But, yeah, sort of 10, 12 hours afterwards the body starts to stiffen up. Im sure tomorrow Ill be a bit sore. But its positive I get a days rest, a days recovery tomorrow.He will need the rest -- this was officially the longest three-set match in Tour Finals history at 3 hours, 20 minutes.Not quite as long as the near five-hour epic between Murray and Nishikori that went five sets in the Davis Cup in March, nor the three hours, 57 minutes they played in New York, but still draining.While it wasnt a vintage performance, Murray found a way to get the job done, stretching his win streak to 21 matches, one short of his career-best set earlier this summer.For now, he is quickly learning that it is one thing to get to the top of the rankings, and another thing to stay there. He must match or outdo Novak Djokovics results here to finish year-end No. 1, and it could come down to a straight shootout in Sundays final.I think for the tournament and for everyone interested in tennis that would probably be the perfect way to finish the year, admitted Murray.
