Shorty G is staying on the Blue Brand.

Hours before the final night of the 2020 WWE Draft begins on Raw, WWE announced that Shorty G has been drafted to SmackDown. This comes after Shorty G was not drafted on the first night of the draft on the October 9 episode of SmackDown, meaning he was a free agent and able to sign with any brand.

Shorty G was not on the draft pool for the October 12 episode of Raw, meaning his name was not going to be up for the draft.
