0:39 Kane's evil smile behind ric flair is priceless🤣

[shawnmichaels]

Their reactions back in the day when they get drafted to RAW or Smackdown were genuinely hilarious.

[imjoker]

Fun Fact- John Cena caused Triple H to get drafted to another show in 2004, 2008 and 2009

[AM-edlj]

19 years down the line and Paul Heyman still as strong as ever

[JosephYamanashi]

And with the main event that night for the WWE Championship. Triple H vs Eddie Guerrero ended with perhaps the best brawl in Brand Split history.

[WWChampion]

I like how Kane is laughing in the background.

[owaisinus]

Triple H's reaction to him getting drafted to Smackdown was one of the best moments in WWE Draft. Now it has become an absolute joke. We have superstars from RAW and Smackdown competing in each other's brands.

[heqxnvy]

Bischoff and Heyman as GMs. We were spoiled.

[roposunday]

Thanks For this remembrance this is period that wwe superstar draft is so lovely to watch

[AffiqAnwar]

This Draft didn't become reality because Triple H didn't wanna work Tuesday.

[shawnmichaels]

The rutheless agression had the best drafts, Also it give a nostalgic vibes of playing SYM.

[BillyBob-ecox]

It’s insane to me that Smackdown is already almost 25 years old. I can still remember when it was Raw and Sunday Night Heat

[giorgiasimeoni]

For me The Evolution is one of the best stables of all time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[yousafihsan]

I have they bring back wwe drafts like they used to happen in Ruthless Aggression Era

[cheenusharmaa]

Back When WWE Draft Really Meant Something!! Nowdays It's Like Empty Hype!! 😉😉😉😉

[tombradford]

Kane's big evil grin in the background got me

[Dantenyc]

I always speculated what would've happen if HHH was drafted to SD in '04. I'm guessing the events play out the exact same instead of JBL as the main heel it will be HHH. But this also brings up the question of what happens to the rest of Evolution on RAW.

[ianmccluskey]

Fun Fact: also on this day in 1999 was the Debut of the Mean Street Posse

[player-lightwater]

4 years later, HHH got drafted to SmackDown again but unlike here, he stayed in SmackDown for a year until he drafted back to RAW.

[Mark.M]

I remembered that one time I wanted to find that ruffle drum and whatever type of paper they used for the picks! LOL good times. And that was after the quarantine 😅
