This week's Smackdown comes live from Mohegan Sun Arena, Connecticut as the Blue Brand strides towards making some impact at the Grandest Stage Of Them All, WrestleMania.

The 35th edition of WrestleMania is just days away, and hype is immense, and so is the zeal! The Blue Brand has been roaring towards the Showcase of Immortals as many fascinating storylines have shaped up in order to enthral the WWE Universe at the grandest stage of them all.

This Week's SmackDown comes with a lot of promise as the WWE Universe curiously await as to what more the Blue Brand can deliver after weeks of high drama and entertainment.

WWE enthusiasts will keep a keen eye to the event which surely influences a lot of matches WrestleMania 35 which is set to take place on 7th April 2019 at MetLife Arena, New Jersey.

Here we present our thoughts on what to expect on this week's SmackDown Live:

#5 AJ Styles gets an RKO out of Nowhere post his historic match with Kurt Angle

We might see Randy Orton hit yet another RKO on his WrestleMania opponent- AJ Styles

Kurt Angle is in the final run of his in-ring career and the veteran is leaving no stone unturned in order to make it truly memorable. The Olympic hero has faced some worthy opponents in this period and is set to face yet another megastar who he shares a strong history with!

The American hero is scheduled to battle AJ Styles on SmackDown in what will be his final outing on the blue brand, a place where he created many magical moments.

AJ and Kurt go way back and it seems like the perfect farewell for the WWE Hall Of Famer by pitting him against the very best on Smackdown Live.

While this highly anticipated match is set to take place, there will be a certain superstar who'll be watching this match closely owing to the fact that he faces one of his toughest tests in AJ Styles at WrestleMania 35.

The man we are discussing here is The Viper, Randy Orton- the man who in a few days will face the phenomenal one at the Grandest Stage Of Them All!

Orton is known to be a ferocious opponent and the greatest weapon in his arsenal is the RKO.

Orton has planted innumerable RKO and the beauty of this finisher is that can come any time and anywhere!

Expect Randy Orton to show up upon the completion of AJ Styles' iconic bout with Kurt Angle.

#4 The Miz confronts Shane-O Mac

The Miz will be looking for some revenge

The Miz and Shane McMahon infamously broke up at Fastlane as the commissioner of Smackdown shocked the world by brutally assaulting his partner and made the matters worse by attacking Miz's father after literally laying his son down in anguish and pain.

The Miz did address Shane-O Mac last week but there have been no signs of a physical confrontation up until this point. WWE will be looking to add drama and action into this personal feud which set to culminate at WrestleMania 35.

The Grandest Stage of Them All is the where these two former Tag Team Champions are set to collide and conclude what has been quite some storyline between these 2 men on SmackDown Live.

But before their highly anticipated clash comes to life, the fans will be hoping to see these 2 men be involved in some kind of confrontation, a physical one to be precise.

Expect The Miz to give a taste of payback on SmackDown this week!

#3 We may have 2 triple threat matches in the women's division at WrestleMania

A triple threat match might be on the cards

It is no secret that the Raw Women's Championship is the prize that is going to be fought for in the main event of WrestleMania 35. Three women- Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch are set to make history by the very first women to headline the showcase of immortals.

Raw's Women Championship is a hot topic, agreed but SmackDown's division ain't lacking behind either! Asuka- the reigning champion, is set to find out her opponent at the grandest stage of them all when 4 supreme athletes- Naomi, Carmella, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville are 4 of the most gifted athletes to feature on the blue brand and it will be quite some match when these 4 collide on SmackDown. The 4 men will be vying for one thing- to be the number 1 contender for Asuka's SmackDown Women's Championship.

While the idea might sound a bit vague but WWE might pull out a surprise by making Mandy and Sonya as the opponents for Asuka and make the match at WrestleMania 35. Mandy and Sonya have both been impressive and have been in line for the championship for quite some time now!

The prospect of 2 triple threat matches at WrestleMania is tempting simply because the two top prizes in the Women's division- Raw and SmackDown Women's titles will be on the line.

The championship on Raw is grabbing many headlines and some drama in the SmackDown title picture will surely be welcomed.

OR #2 It's the battle of Best Friends

Will we see these 2 friends collide at the Grandest Stage of Them All?

While Ronda Rousey vs Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch for the Raw Women's championship is set to main event WrestleMania 35, WWE might think of going for a regular singles match for the SmackDown Women's title!

Asuka awaits as to who she is going to face at WrestleMania 35 for her title. If the match WWE will be looking for is a singles match then there is little to argue about Sonya and Mandy's chances simply because the two have displayed some bumps in their on-screen friendship.

The two are set to be involved in the Fatal-four way match and are certain to cross paths. Things might just burst up to give us yet another tantalizing feud heading onto Mania!

There have been numerous instances in the past when teammates or say friends have scuffled with each other prior to WrestleMania only to set up a match!

Sonya and Mandy have been thick but it seems a match at Mania between the two will definitely boost the singles career of these 2 tremendously talented women.

Either way, the future looks bright for Mandy and Sonya!

#1 Yet another pulsating tale in the book that is Kofi-Mania Ft. Vince McMahon

Will Vince finally give Kofi a shot at the WWE Championship?

Kofi Kingston is undoubtedly the hottest male superstar right now as the WWE Universe is right behind the Jamaican who aims to win his long-awaited World Title at WrestleMania 35.

The story has become so big and immensely popular that the chairman of the company, Vince McMahon is now in the frame and running things like he always does- in a spectacular manner.

Kofi's journey up until this point has been outright thrilling as the New Day member has defied all odds to become the deserving candidate in eyes of millions of WWE enthusiasts.

The fans are really behind Kofi who has been robbed numerous times by Vince as the chairman is still not convinced if Kofi deserves a shot at Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship or not.

Fans have been anticipating as to what might occur next in this enticing ride and knowing the WWE and most importantly Vince McMahon, this ride is going to last until the very end of the Pre-WrestleMania period simply because the WWE Universe is right on it.

Expect nothing but yet another surprising turn of events as Kofi's on-going war with Vince's authority resumes this Tuesday Night on SmackDown Live.
