The 2021 WWE Draft continued on this week’s Monday Night Raw as the other half of WWE’s roster was placed on either Raw or SmackDown. The first night of the Draft had its fair share of highlights — both world champions were drafted first and stayed on their respective brands, Raw Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair, Drew McIntyre and NXT’s Hit Row all made the jump to SmackDown while Raw picked up Bianca Belair and Edge while nabbing 13 of the 19 picks in the Supplemental Draft during Talking Smack.

But heading into Raw there were still plenty of questions. How would WWE handle the women’s titles if Becky stayed on SmackDown? Would Paul Heyman be able to keep the Usos on the Blue Brand under Roman Reigns’ orders? Will WWE find a way to undo splitting up The New Day again? 

Check out the full results from Night Two of the WWE Draft below!

1. Becky Lynch to Raw

“The Man” announced she had been drafted at the start of the show, then teased the idea of becoming “Becky Two Belts” by challenging Charlotte Flair again. Instead, a non-title match between Flair and Bianca Belair was set for the main event. 

2. The Usos to SmackDown

Much to Paul Heyman’s relief, Jimmy and Jey Uso were taken by SmackDown with The Blue Brand’s first overall pick of the night.

3. Bobby Lashley to Raw

After having the best year of his career and finally winning the WWE Championship, “The All Mighty” will remain on Raw. There was no mention of the recently-unified Hurt Business during the selection.

“The Blueprint” will remain on SmackDown, as confirmed by the final pick of the first round. Banks will challenge both Becky Lynch and Bianca Belair for the SmackDown Women’s Championship at Crown Jewel on Oct. 21.

5. Seth Rollins to Raw

The man formerly known as the “Monday Night Messiah” is heading back to Raw after spending the past year on SmackDown. The pick is a strong indication WWE is once again keeping couples together as this keeps Rollins with his wife, Becky Lynch.

6. Shinsuke Nakamura and Rick Boogs to SmackDown

The Intercontinental Champion and his guitar-shredding tag partner are staying on SmackDown. Somewhere, Pat McAfee is celebrating.

The former WWE Universal Champion is heading back to Raw after, unfortunately, not having much to do in recent months over on SmackDown.

12. Xia Li to SmackDown

The first NXT call-up of the night saw Xia Li make the jump to the Blue Brand. There was no mention of the rest of her Tian Sha faction from NXT, meaning she’ll be going up alone.

After teasing that they might get chosen for different brands over the past couple of weeks, Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins were both drafted back to Raw after spending the last year on Friday nights.

18. Humberto Carrillo & Angel Garza to SmackDown

The two cousins recently paired up as a tag team and are now heading to SmackDown together.

19. Alexa Bliss to Raw

Bliss was on the losing end of a Raw Women’s Championship match at Extreme Rules, and her post-match breakdown was reportedly WWE’s way of writing her off TV while she undergoes sinus surgery.

20. Cesaro to SmackDown

Now that both Cesaro and Sheamus are on the same brand again, perhaps The Bar could be on its way to a reunion? 

21. Carmella to Raw

Much to Corey Graves’ delight, Carmella is joining him over on Raw.

22. Ridge Holland to SmackDown
