Natalya Ignores The Rules Of The Draft, Says She Can Appear On SmackDown
Natalya decides which brand she wrestles on, apparently.
Despite being drafted to Monday Night RAW in the recent Draft, Natalya is maintaining that she can still appear on SmackDown. Of course, based off the rules of the latest WWE Draft and given the fact she is not a free agent, this assertion is a strange one.
In a new interview with The Archive Of B-Sox, Natalya noted that she can still show up on the SmackDown brand despite being an official member of the Raw roster, noting that if a storyline calls for it, you could in theory jump brands.
“It’s exciting. I got drafted from SmackDown to Raw, but that doesn’t mean that I still can’t show up on SmackDown. That’s kind of the cool part about being in WWE. You’re drafted to a certain brand, but if the storyline calls for it, you can show up on another show. It’s cool.”

As of this writing, the only talents allowed jump brands are both the men’s and women’s tag team champions. We will have to wait and see if other talents will be jumping back and forth after this years draft.
