The WWE Draft in 2002 was the first draft held by the WWE and it took place on March 25, 2002. The draft was a way to divide the WWE roster between the Raw and SmackDown brands. The draft was conducted as a lottery-style draft, where a wrestler's name was randomly drawn from a drum and assigned a brand.
Some of the notable draft picks in 2002 included The Rock, who was the first overall pick and was drafted to the SmackDown brand. Stone Cold Steve Austin, the WWE Champion at the time, was drafted to the Raw brand. Triple H, Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle, and Hulk Hogan were also among the top draft picks.
The draft was highly anticipated by fans as it introduced the brand extension concept. This allowed WWE to showcase different storylines and matches on the different brands, giving each brand its own unique identity. The WWE Draft has since become an annual event, with drafts taking place periodically throughout the years.
