WWE Brand Extension 
 The 2006 World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Brand Extension Draft took place from the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, Washington on May 29, 2006, where ECW representative, Paul Heyman, drafted two superstars, one from SmackDown!
WWE Brand Extension 
 and ECW superstars began to appear on both shows as part of a (kayfabe) deal between ECW General Manager Armando Estrada and SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero.
WWE Brand Extension 
 Interbrand competition was kept at a minimum, with superstars from all brands competing together only at pay-per-view events.
WWE Brand Extension 
 However, in 2003, all pay per view events became brand exclusive, leaving the "big four" pay-per-views (WrestleMania, SummerSlam, Survivor Series, and the Royal Rumble) as the only interbrand shows.
WWE Brand Extension 
 Starting in late 2006, in an attempt to add more star power to the shows, interbrand matches became more common.
WWE Brand Extension 
 Most notably, MNM and The Hardys reformed, despite the fact that the teammates were on separate brands.
WWE Brand Extension 
 Bobby Lashley is also notable for his interbrand action, who was involved in a storyline with the WWE Chairman, Vince McMahon.
WWE Brand Extension 
 The return of Saturday Night's Main Event to NBC has also lead to more interaction between the brands.
WWE Brand Extension 
 The separation of the WWE roster between two brands also intended to split the pay-per-view offerings, which began with Bad Blood in June 2003.
WWE Brand Extension 
 The original idea had the "major" pay-per-view events at the time (Royal Rumble, SummerSlam, Survivor Series, and WrestleMania) would contain the only instances where wrestlers from different brands would interact with each other, and even among the four shows only the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania would have wrestlers from different brands competing against each other.
WWE Brand Extension 
 Eventually, WWE abandoned the practice of single-brand pay-per-view events following WrestleMania 23.
WWE Brand Extension 
 Initially, the WWE Undisputed Championship and WWE Women's Championship were available to both brands.
WWE Brand Extension 
 With several specialty championships being exclusive to one brand, numerous wrestlers were left with no title to fight for.
WWE Brand Extension 
 This issue was solved in September 2002 when the Undisputed Championship became the WWE Championship again and was moved to SmackDown!
WWE Brand Extension 
 Raw created WWE Raw Tag Team Championship, revived the United States Championship, and became the exclusive home of the Cruiserweight Championship.
WWE Brand Extension 
 Meanwhile, Smackdown  became the exclusive brand for WWE's original WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship, the Intercontinental Championship, and the Women's Championship.
WWE Brand Extension 
 When ECW was revived in 2006, the ECW Championship was re-established and is that brand's world title.
