WWE Draft 2008: Draft or Fire the Superstars - Day 2?

As some of you know (and its okay if you don't know about it), there will be a WWE Draft following Wrestlemania XXIV. What I'm trying to do here, is I'm going to chose five random WWE Superstars everyday, and I want to know if you think the Superstar should stay with their current brand, or should they be drafted to another brand, or should they be FIRED! Select only one choice, obviously, and give a description to why you choose that destination for that Superstar, as well as telling how you think the WWE should use that Superstar at the current moment.

1. Cody Rhodes

* Stay on Raw.

* Drafted to Smackdown.

* Drafted to ECW.

* FIRED!

2. Finlay

* Drafted to Raw.

* Stay on Smackdown.

* Drafted to ECW.

* FIRED!

3. Jamie Noble

* Drafted to Raw.

* Stay on Smackdown.

* Drafted to ECW.

* FIRED!

4. John Layfield

* Stay on Raw.

* Drafted to Smackdown.

* Drafted to ECW.

* FIRED!

5. Kevin Thorn

* Drafted to Raw.

* Drafted to Smackdown.

* Stay on ECW.

* FIRED!

Update 2:

Sorry for not responding at an early time, but here are my takes on these five Superstars:

1. Cody Rhodes - Drafted to Smackdown = He has extreme talent. However, his World Tag Team title reign is not really going anywhere. Instead, the WWE should have Hardcore Holly and Rhodes lose the titles (Hopefully to Paul London and Brain Kendrick), and then, during the draft, have him be drafted by Smackdown. Holly and Rhodes should cut promo, where Holly wishes the best of luck to him in the future, on his last episode of Raw. On Smackdown, the WWE should make him the Crusierweight Champion, when it comes back, so that way he can build his rep by slowly working up the ladder.

2. Finlay - Stay on Smackdown = He is a great technical wrestler, but he needs to be seperated from Vince McMahon and this overused storyline of fathership. Hopefully, nobody is declared McMahon's illegitimate child, and the whole thing becomes a lie. Anyway, he should face MVP for the U.S. Championship right away.

Update 3:

I ran out of space (I just get way too much into the details).

2. Finlay (Continued) = I believe he looks better in the U.S. title hunt, where he can develop his new face character against MVP, who is due for some competition. By the way, Hornswoggle should as stay on Smackdown, with his dad, Finlay.

3. Jamie Noble - Stay on Smackdown = He is a pretty good wrestler. However, he needs to work on his gimmick and skills. Meanwhile, I believe he should beat Chuck Palumbo, at an upcoming PPV, and become the boyfriend of Michelle McCool, who should become his manager. Then, maybe rebranded as a surfer (He looks like one), he should be put into the Crusierweight title picture, where he can have a feud with Cody Rhodes, and help bring the title from the dead.

4. John Layfield - Stay on Raw = I'm going to make this one short and simple. He should work for Vince McMahon, while staying in the upper-mid card, and help take down Mr. Kennedy (You should know what I'm taking about by now).

Update 4:

Still could not complete my takings.

5. Kevin Thorn - Drafted to Smackdown = It is kind of sad that his vampire gimmick was never used properly. At first, it seemed like he was going to be the new Gangrel, expect with loads of more talent. Then, the WWE assigned him with a teacher, a good boxer, and an Alpha Male, whom all were dubbed the "New Breed." This group never got Thorn anywhere. Afterwards, he made any appearance on ECW in November without his vampire gimmick, but has not been seen since. Well, the WWE should bring back his vampire gimmick, as well as make it seem new, by appearing on Smackdown, and saying "How do I attack these fresh blood?", to which Kane appears, and forms a tag team with him. The two should win the titles, but they should only hold them for a short period, to which, after their lost, Kane attacks on him. This combo should help both make comebacks in their careers for now.

    1. Cody Rhodes - * Drafted to Smackdown.

    I consider the people on Raw to be the top of the tops in the business. Even if they're not main eventers, they're still the "bigger" stars. Cody isn't there yet. I think he needs to go to Smackdown (or possibly ECW) and learn a little bit more. Then, in a couple of years, if he's ready, he can come back. People wouldn't even notice him if he wasn't the son of the American Dream.

    2. Finlay - * Drafted to Raw.

    Finlay is a great technical wrestler, has been in the business for years, and should be moved up to the next level. Heck, right now he's on Raw just as much as he's on Smackdown so they may as well pull him over to Raw and get it over with.

    3. Jamie Noble - * Stay on Smackdown.

    He's gaining popularity, but I haven't seen that "it" factor from him just yet. He needs to stay where he is and work on his gimmick and in ring presence just a little bit longer.

    4. John Layfield - * Drafted to Smackdown.

    JBL was at his best when he was on Smackdown and it was a foolish move to bring him over to Raw. He should have stayed right where he was and continued to commentate. If he wanted to get back in the ring, it should have been over at Smackdown.

    5. Kevin Thorn - * FIRED!

    Honestly, what have we seen from him? His gimmick is tired, he's barely around, and at this point, serves no purpose. His wannabe goth/vampire gimmick is lame and he serves no purpose. Fire him!

    Great list... starred! I can't wait until tomorrow's list.

    okay so Cody Rhodes should stay on Raw, he is naturally gifted but Raw is the better brand at the moment so he should stay there and compete against better wrestlers to develop his skills.

    Finlay He should go to ECW to use his hardcore skills to the most, the Shillelagh and he can become Champ!

    Jamie Noble, stay on Smackdown

    JBL Fired i really dnt like him i dont see the point, he can only stay if APA come back.

    Kevin thorn stay
