#2 Roman Reigns vs Dolph Ziggler

One of the things that the fans have been very negative about is Roman Reigns' feud with Baron Corbin. The reason for all the critical examinations has been the predictable booking throughout the feud.

Last week, we saw Roman Reigns vs Robert Roode, which ended up in a Reigns win and Roode & Dolph Ziggler getting destroyed by The Big Dog. What WWE shouldn't do this week is book Roman Reigns vs Dolph Ziggler.

This would be a very predictable booking decision and a match not many in the WWE Universe would even care to watch. If WWE wants to go ahead with Reigns vs Corbin for TLC, they should rather have a promo segment or even a contract signing. That would really get the fans invested in this feud. They could even have a proper slugfest among the four Superstars. Not having Reigns vs Ziggler on Friday night is best for business.


#1 Elias working as a heel

As the WWE Universe witnessed last week, Elias returned to SmackDown with the same gimmick but maybe a different feel. The way his return was planned was also great, to be honest as Dana Brooke also got some much-needed screen time through it.

WWE might have even teased an on-screen pairing between Brooke and Elias through last week's segment. This week on SmackDown, we expect Elias to make his in-ring return. But it would be great for him to work as a face for once.

Elias has worked as a heel for a while now and that hasn't gotten him anywhere, so maybe a face turn could do him a world of good. There were no suggestions during last week's segment whether he was a face or heel, hence, we can only hope that this week we will see a babyface Elias.
