The destiny of WWE’s Superstars will be determined during a two-night draft taking place live on “Friday Night SmackDown” on Oct. 11 (8 p.m. ET) on FOX, and on “Monday Night Raw” on Oct. 14 (8 p.m.) on USA Network.

On both nights of the draft, Superstars from “Raw” and “SmackDown” will appear along with personalities from FOX and NBCUniversal programming who will announce select picks from each brand. The draft will determine the Superstars who compete for “Raw” and “SmackDown,” which feature distinct casts, unique storylines and dedicated writing teams.

“Friday Night SmackDown” on Oct. 11 will emanate from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas while “Monday Night Raw” on Oct. 14 will take place at the Pepsi Center in Denver.

“Raw” and “SmackDown” are the No. 1 and No. 2 longest-running weekly episodic television shows in U.S. primetime history. The programs have aired more original episodes than “The Simpsons,” “Gunsmoke,” “Lassie” and “Monday Night Football.”

“Raw” will continue airing on USA Network while “SmackDown” moves to FOX beginning Friday, Oct. 4.
