Latest News: Which WWE Stars Were Not Chosen in the 2024 Draft?

The 2024 WWE Draft is set to kick off later this evening in Cincinnati, bringing excitement and anticipation to fans all over the world. This year, there have been some changes to the draft format that add a new layer of intrigue. One significant change is that all of the WWE champions, with the exception of the women’s tag team champions, are ineligible to be drafted. This means that familiar faces such as Cody Rhodes, Damian Priest, Bayley, Becky Lynch, Logan Paul, and Sami Zayn will remain on their respective brands.

As fans eagerly await the draft, there have been some updates on names that have been left out of the draft this year. Omos and MVP, for example, have not been included in the draft pool. Omos has made appearances in battle royals and live events, while MVP negotiated their status as free agents after last year’s draft.

Rhea Ripley, Dexter Lumis, Gable Steveson, and Nikki Cross are also among the omissions from this year’s draft. Each of these superstars brings a unique skill set to the ring, but for various reasons, they will not be part of this year’s draft selection.

On the other hand, there are some surprising inclusions in this year’s draft pool. Braun Strowman, who has been out with an injury for a year, is included in the pool, giving fans hope for his return to the ring. Giovanni Vinci, who was recently kicked out of Imperium, is another interesting addition to the draft pool. Odyssey Jones, who was technically drafted to Raw last year but worked Smackdown dark matches, is also a part of this year’s draft.

As the excitement builds for the 2024 WWE Draft, fans can expect some surprises and shake-ups in the world of professional wrestling. With familiar faces staying put and new talent entering the draft pool, the landscape of WWE is sure to change in exciting ways. Stay tuned for the draft event to see where your favorite superstars end up and what surprises may be in store for the future of WWE.
