WWE SmackDown Preview: Roman Reigns ignores Brock Lesnar carnage, Survivor Series feuds to steal attention (29th October 2021)

#2 Shinsuke Nakamura and Happy Corbin to engage in a championship rivalry on WWE SmackDown?

Shinsuke Nakamura lost against Happy Corbin last week on WWE SmackDown. Although the latter did not get a clean victory, he is bound to claim a potential shot at Nakamura’s Intercontinental Championship. Will we see the two superstars involved in a feud once again on the Blue brand? Nakamura has an ally in Rick Boogs, while Corbin has found a friend in Madcap Moss.

WWE SmackDown can book a storyline involving all four superstars, allowing Boogs and Moss to compete in more matches. Nakamura isn’t expected to drop his title to Corbin, but it can’t be denied that The King of Strong Style desperately needs to be part of better storylines on the show.

#1 New talents take over WWE SmackDown

WWE SmackDown has a stacked roster following this year’s Draft. The Blue brand has delivered epic shows over the last few months and will look to maintain that standard as we move forward. The creative team could look at their options to build more superstars on the show and push them further up the roster.

From Toni Storm to Xia Li and Hit Row to Mansoor, the brand has a rich pool of talent at its disposal. The new era of the Friday night show should see the writers invest more trust in upcoming talents and allow them to get over with the WWE Universe.
