WWE SmackDown: 2 Superstars who flopped and 3 who impressed (2nd October, 2020)

This week's SmackDown put up a great show for fans

#1 Impressed on SmackDown: Alexa Bliss

This is undoubtedly one of the best storylines in WWE right now

This name might seem unusual, given that Alexa Bliss didn’t compete in any match tonight. However, it was her appearance on the Kevin Owens show that ended up being one of the best segments on SmackDown this week. One can’t praise her enough for the manner in which she transitioned into ‘The Fiend’ Bray Wyatt’s ally and facilitated his arrival on the Blue brand this week.

During the KO show on SmackDown, the host asked her about the recent changes in her character. Bliss justified those changes and even prompted Owens to embrace the good things that come with that kind of shift in their character. A concerned Owens was looking for The Fiend before the latter made his appearance and attacked Owens.

After that, both The Fiend and Bliss stared at each other before they held hands and announced their alliance in typical WWE fashion. Bliss looked great in the new role, and the segment also confirmed a match between Owens and The Fiend for next week’s SmackDown. It will be interesting to see what’s in store for all the Superstars involved.
