The shakeup from the Draft is really making for some cool changes in the VWF. Looking over the picks for all three brands it's hard to figure out who came away the most fortunate but there are some more picks coming so that could be a deciding factor. I'm really liking how Raw made out, though the EAWA also stands out for having less picks but all four are very intriguing.
Only a few more shows to go before Vegasmania Backlash! I'm really looking forward to the big event.

I'm really looking forward to the big event. yeah, so far I think RAW is doing the best in the Draft. RAW lost its current VWF Champion in Nick Bockwinkel and its current United States Champion in Don Muraco but received Piper, Angle, and Vader. But so far the RAW tag team division has taken a hit as RAW lost both the Fabulous Ones and the Midnight Express as well as recent tag team champions Bockwinkel/Stevens. EAWA has fewer picks due to the lack of a womens division but that brand has overall done well with its picks IMO. 1 more week in the Draft to go plus some trades and then also some roster releases along with roster signings are expected to occur too before the updated brand rosters are finalized. The rumor is that RAW is going to lose someone big this week.
