The next episode of WWE SmackDown promises to be an exciting show, since it will be the first edition of the blue brand after Survivor Series: Wargames. The RAW episode after Wargames has already loved fans with their surprises, and a similar anticipation surrounds SmackDown.
This article will analyze five possible scenarios that could be developed in the edition of this week of the blue brand.
#5. Only Sikoa could recognize Roman Reigns and become Babyface
The Soloa Bloodline Sikoa suffered a defeat against the OG Bloodline in Survivor Series: Wargames 2024. The fight concluded when the members of the original Bloodline and CM Punk made their final maneuvers on the self -proclaimed tribal chief, one after another. This led to the OTC covering alone and emerging as the winner.
As a result of this defeat, it is possible that only Sikoa recognizes this week's Roman Reigns in SmackDown, which could pave the way for only becoming a “enforce” Babyface. However, this scenario seems unlikely, since its long -awaited individual combat has not yet been carried out.
However, the return of only to the Roman Reigns faction remains a possibility in the plot. If this happens, it will mark the return of the former Reigns executor to Bloodline.
#4. Penta could finally make your WWE debut to face Shinsuke Nakamura
It is rumored that the former AEW star, Penta El Zero Fear, will sign with the headquarters in Stamford, although the agreement has not been officially confirmed. However, if Penta secretly signed with WWE before the next SmackDown episode, it is conceivable that you may debut facing Shinsuke Nakamura.
The king of the strong style recently captured the United States championship by defeating the Knight. At this point, Penta's debut to challenge Nakamura could serve as a significant moment for the former AEW star in WWE.
#3. Charlotte Flair could return to rejuvenate her dispute with Nia Jax
The return of Charlotte Flair has been highly anticipated by fans during the last weeks, but has not yet materialized. However, in SmackDown after Survivor Series, fans could finally witness the queen's return to Friday nights.
If this happens, Flair will probably revive her dispute with the WWE NIA Jax Women's Champion and will get involved in a rivalry for the title with her.
#2. A double heel change could happen in SmackDown
During the most recent episode of WWE RAW, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods became villains against Big E. A similar scenario could be developed in the next Smackdown, where Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa could become villain characters.
During the last weeks, WWE has been hinting at the change from Ciampa to Heel. In a big surprise, Diy could change Heel together on Friday night. This change could bring a new dynamic to the blue brand's couples division.
#1. Drew McIntyre could launch an attack on Roman Reigns
Drew McIntyre made his return in Raw's most recent episode by applying a Claymore Kick to Sami Zayn on his face. This occurred when Seth Rollins defeated Zayn via Roll-Up, just for McIntyre to appear abruptly and attack the Claymore.
This has unleashed the assumption that McIntyre could also be the mysterious attacker behind Jey use. This apparently confirms that the Scottish warrior could be pointing to the original members of The Bloodline.
As a result, an attack by McIntyre to Roman Reigns seems a realistic possibility in the next episode of SmackDown. Reigns himself could even challenge McIntyre, which could lead to a confrontation in which Drew takes the fight to the original tribal chief.
