3 Things WWE could be planning on SmackDown this week (October 18, 2019)

#2 Alexa Bliss turns on Nikki Cross

Bliss and Cross are part of the Blue brand

Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross were drafted to RAW last Friday, but WWE eventually traded them to SmackDown. Given the success of Bliss and Cross, the two Superstars could prove to be huge assets for the SmackDown Women's Division, especially considering Charlotte Flair's departure left such a huge void.

Bliss and Cross have been impressive since forming their team. They went on to win the Women's Tag Team Titles, but lost the twin titles to The Kabuki Warriors at Hell in a Cell. It will be interesting to see if they remain a team after starting a new journey on SmackDown.

Alexa Bliss is a five-time Women's Champion and extremely valuable as a singles competitor. Although Nikki Cross has never won a singles title, she has been flying high since teaming up with 'The Goddess.' Both women are likely to excel as singles competitors on the Blue brand. Bliss could reach the top of the ladder again and Cross already proved her mettle as a singles star in NXT.

Bliss has a sordid history of betraying her friends and it wouldn't be a surprise, if she does it again, especially after losing the Women's Tag Team Titles. A betrayal could lead to an exciting storyline between the two women and it could all begin on this week's edition of SmackDown.
