WWE boss Triple H appeared on Friday Night SmackDown and revealed a major shakeup is on the way.

The Hall of Famer, who is still the company’s chief content officer following news of a huge sale to Endeavor which is leading to a merger with the UFC, came out to address the fans and announced a WWE Draft is coming.

After hyping up a record breaking WrestleMania, Triple H – real name Paul Levesque – insisted it is time to look to the future, before confirming every superstar is eligible for the draft in the coming weeks.

He said: ‘I promise you this. When it is all said and done, this year’s draft will truly change the game.’

Given Triple H’s comments, it appears NXT will be included in the wide sweeping changes, with the possibility if stars being called up from the developmental brand.

Whatever happens, Raw and SmackDown will certainly look very different heading into the summer.
