5 things WWE subtly told us on SmackDown: 4-time World Champion turning face, Identity of female RETRIBUTION member revealed? (August 7th, 2020)

What an ending!
What an ending!

#1. The interesting heel-face dynamic between Braun Strowman and Bray Wyatt on SmackDown

Admittedly, this wasn't the best follow-up to what we felt was an incredible ending to SmackDown last week. Bray Wyatt opened the show in Firefly Fun House, once again stating his desire to go after Braun Strowman and the Universal Championship.

'The Fiend' also made an appearance and had another tense confrontation with Alexa Bliss. This time, however, he didn't go through with the attack. It wasn't your conventional WWE return and "run in" to make the save. Instead, it was a sweaty Braun Strowman with a camera zoomed into his face, telling The Fiend that he doesn't give a damn about Alexa Bliss.

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.

What we noticed on SmackDown was that unlike most of 'The Fiend''s feuds, there isn't a conventional heel-babyface dynamic. Sure, you could look at Wyatt as the heel, but in reality, Braun Strowman isn't a babyface either.

Whatever it is, we just hope that it leads to an interesting match with good storytelling. SummerSlam could be where we see 'The Fiend' reign supreme again.
