No, you can't afford to miss this week's edition of WWE SmackDown at all. Now that we know that Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns will be the main event of WrestleMania, the stakes have never been higher.

Just to denote that we're on the road to WrestleMania, expect the company to fill two hours of WWE SmackDown with many twists and turns. In any case, here are five surprises that we could potentially see on the show. There is no guarantee that even one of them will happen for sure, but how cool will it be if they do?

Be sure to leave a comment below and share your thoughts. What would you like to see on the road to WrestleMania in Dallas?

We know that there's a contract signing segment between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar, so let's dive into that right away.


#5 Paul Heyman introduces WWE SmackDown Superstar Jey Uso as Brock Lesnar's MSG opponent

We know that Brock Lesnar is scheduled to be at Madison Square Garden on the 5th of March to defend the title he holds so dearly. We know that Bobby Lashley won't be his opponent, so it makes you wonder who it will be. Could Paul Heyman devise a plan to keep it all in the family?

WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champion Jey Uso could again step up as a singles competitor. The odds could be stacked in his favor. With Jimmy Uso and Roman Reigns on the outside, he could hold the upper hand going in.

It makes sense because a character like Heyman would want to hold the top Championships in both brands. Plus, it gives Uso the spot he deserves.

#4 Bayley returns on WWE SmackDown in spectacular fashion

Bayley could show up out of the blue as WrestleMania approaches. Even though we know that she won't be in the title hunt against Charlotte Flair, she could be the firepower that the division needs.

It will be interesting to see whether she returns as a heel or a babyface. After all, they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder.

#3 Drew McIntyre interrupts Sami Zayn's big championship celebration on WWE SmackDown

Sure, Drew McIntyre is scheduled to take on Madcap Moss elsewhere during the night, but it could all be a swerve. Could The Scottish Warrior show up out of the blue during Sami Zayn's Intercontinental Championship celebration and challenge him to a match at WrestleMania?

If not, is there even a spot for the Scotsman at the most spectacular show of the year?

Some expect the eventual match to be Corbin vs. McIntyre, but it isn't a big enough draw for a stage like WrestleMania. McIntyre vs. Zayn could be the match both men need!

#2 The Boss n' Hug Connection is reformed on WWE SmackDown this week

Carmella and Queen Zelina have no contenders on RAW at the moment. Could they show up on SmackDown and challenge the entire division to take them on?

At that point, Sasha Banks and Bayley could reunite again and take these women to the task. The Boss n' Hug connection is popular, and they can remind the world why they're so special.

#1 Ridge Holland and Sheamus have a major fallout after the events on WWE SmackDown last week

The entire Sheamus vs. Ricochet feud seems to have run its course. Last week, we saw a moment where Sheamus shoved Holland. One must wonder if the two men are teasing a potential feud and if the plan is for the henchman to turn on the master.

With Sheamus as his mentor, Holland could climb up the ranks and become a top player for the company.
