10 Superstars who could appear on Smackdown 1000.

5. John 'Bradshaw' Layfield

JBL

John 'Bradshaw' Layfield or simply JBL was one of the best career reinventions in WWE history. After becoming stale as the muscle bound Bradshaw, he changed his gimmick to that of an obnoxious Texas Billionaire. This worked magic as he was made the Champion of Smackdown for almost a whole year. His reign went down in history as the longest World title reign in Smackdown history until it was broken by AJ Styles very recently. JBL as a heel was also responsible for John Cena's rise to the top in WWE and it happened on Smackdown.

JBL has forever been a huge part of WWE. He has been a commentator, a panel host and whatnot. He is likely still signed to the WWE to this very day and an appearance would simply require a phone call. It is in all likeliness he will appear on the show either as a special commentator for the historic episode or simply making an on screen appearance. His rivalries with Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio and The Big Show on Smackdown are legendary. He even had one of the most iconic Undertaker feuds during his time on the blue brand as well.

Although fans are divided on their opinion on JBL, most are against his appearance on WWE TV owing to the bullying claims against him from former announcer Mauro Rannallo. The claims have never been proved and just might be a case of false accusations. Whatever might be the case, JBL's addition to Smackdown 1000 will certainly add to the historical significance of the event.
