#3 Are The Viking Raiders in a prime position on SmackDown?

For The Viking Raiders, it could be all about timing and placement on SmackDown. This week, Jimmy Uso defeated Erik of The Viking Raiders, but the luck of The Usos may not continue as long.

They have undoubtedly benefited from their association with Roman Reigns, with their current SmackDown Tag team Title run being the longest in the Championship's lineage.

However, at Eliminatoin Chamber, they put the titles on the line again, and they may not be so lucky. Jimmy Uso's win may simply set up The Viking Raiders for a big win in Saudi Arabia. Ultimately, the plan for a Title change depends on what the story with Roman Reigns will be like heading into WrestleMania.

#2 Sheamus could have something big in store

This week, Ridge Holland lost to Ricochet, but it set up a tag team match featuring Sheamus and Holland against Ricochet and Cesaro - a match we've already seen before.

Sheamus and Holland won again, and the downfall for Cesaro and Ricochet continues. There isn't much of a purpose being served here, apart from potentially elevating Sheamus to challenge for the Intercontinental Championship - the only accomplishment he has yet to achieve in WWE.
