Ever since WWE started with the concept of ‘WWE Draft’; the WWE Universe has witnessed multiple tag teams splitting up to work with different brands. Last year, Big E was separated from the rest of The New Day. It is a simple process when WWE refreshes its rosters between the Raw and SmackDown brands.

The WWE Draft is starting from this week’s Friday Night SmackDown on October 1 at the Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore which will continue to Monday Night Raw at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.
