For my money, the best roster move coming out of the recent WWE Draft is the move that shifted Chris Jericho from Raw to SmackDown. While some folks could see this as a demotion for Jericho, the truth is that Jericho has very nearly been the WWE’s most valuable player over the past year, providing the most “match of the year” candidate matches of anyone on a WWE roster, except perhaps for Shawn Michaels, his feud partner throughout most of 2008.

Truth is, Smackdown has been a worst of WWE’s three weekly broadcasts for some time now, but with Jericho now on Smackdown, that has the potential to change; he immediately becomes the most important member of the SmackDown roster and could easily carry the top title with honor, though to be honest, he doesn’t need it to enhance his drawing power.

While commercials hawking Fenphedra have often been more entertaining on Friday night than Smackdown’s main event matches, that now has a chance to change.
