Lacey Evans is one Superstar who has been enjoying an astounding run, since making her debut on the main roster earlier this year. Post her move to SmackDown, Evans has stamped her dominance and has looked as a force to reckon with in the recent past. Evans didn't win the Six-Pack Challenge Match last week, but she earned a comprehensive win over a local wrestler this week, taking just a few seconds to win the bout.

Evans received an immediate title shot after getting drafted to RAW, but the scenario will not be the same on SmackDown. Nikki Cross has already earned her shot at Bayley's Championship and will be involved in the feud for some time to come.

Given that Cross will be facing off against Bayley, it will be interesting to see how the company brings Evans into the title picture if and when Cross wins the belt. There is no doubt that Evans has impressed as a heel, and it is unlikely that she will turn a babyface. Unless Bayley drops the title, Evans will not be challenging for the SmackDown Women's Championship anytime soon, but can be backed to produce some quality matches.
