WWE SmackDown has continued to produce must-see episodes, especially since Roman Reigns returned to television to feud with Solo Sikoa. This week's episode might feature a heel turn no one expects.
On last week's episode of WWE SmackDown, the company featured a tornado tag team match with Nia Jax and Tiffany Stratton going up against long-time allies Bayley and Naomi. The finish saw both babyfaces pin the WWE Women's Champion, potentially teasing a triple-threat match for the title at Bad Blood 2024. One of the babyfaces could finally turn heel in the quest to become champion.
This star in question is Naomi, who hasn't represented her dark side in over eight years. Since returning in January, she hasn't won a title and has mostly supported babyfaces on the blue brand. She could finally pull the trigger this week on Bayley and unleash a side fans have never seen before. The new character could also lead to her winning the WWE Women's Championship at Bad Blood 2024.

Naomi last wrestled as a heel back in 2016 before debuting her glow gimmick. She became a three-time champion, winning the SmackDown Women's Championship twice and the Women's Tag Team Championship once. While her heel turn isn't confirmed and is only speculation for now, it will be fascinating to see if it materializes.
What could Naomi do on WWE SmackDown after Bad Blood 2024?
As aforementioned, the three-time champion could turn heel this week on WWE SmackDown. If that happens, she could continue her feud with Bayley after Bad Blood, potentially resulting in a one-on-one match at Survivor Series WarGames 2024.
If she doesn't turn heel, she could finally join The Bloodline Saga after Bad Blood. There is a high chance that Jimmy Uso will return as soon as Bad Blood, and if his side of the family needed a female member, his wife, Naomi, would fit the bill perfectly. Solo Sikoa's side could add Nia Jax in return, thus involving female members on both sides of the family.
Another path for Naomi could be to try and win the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship alongside Bayley. To accomplish that, the long-time friends would have to defeat the dominant duo of Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill.
