5 Biggest Things WWE Secretly Told Us On SmackDown Live

Was SmackDown Live really phenomenal?
Was SmackDown Live really phenomenal?

After Monday Night Raw delivered a pretty decent show, WWE advanced the narrative this week by producing a more compelling SmackDown Live.

Since the creative team are in line to book both Evolution and Crown Jewel simultaneously, more emphasis was laid upon engaging the audience with some segments tonight.

Considering that the blue brand is known for its quality in-ring action, the audience thoroughly enjoyed what transpired, with the Miz TV stealing the entire show.

With the WWE World Cup tournament being pushed heavily on both brands, tonight's SmackDown was successful in adding more names to the already established tournament.

However, with all that took place tonight, the company dropped a couple of pipe-bombs on through multiple segments that left the fans surprised. What were they? Let's find out.

Here are the 5 biggest things WWE secretly told us on SmackDown Live.


#1 AJ Styles might never headline any pay-per-view as the WWE Champion

Sad but true
Sad but true

In what was one of the most compelling segments on SmackDown Live, the Miz TV was successful in openly criticizing AJ Styles.

The A-Lister took the mic and ranted his frustrations regarding AJ Styles' title reign and went on to criticize him for diminishing the credibility of the WWE Championship.

There's no denying that the Phenomenal One has proved to the entire world that the blue brand is his house, and while he has achieved everything in his career, he might never shine as a headline act on PPV's.

Since Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar are more considerable as box-office attractions for the company, they might never push the Phenomenal One to close any show in the company.

While the Awesome One did blame Styles for making the title less prestigious, the company spoke vicariously through the Miz on their feelings about A.J. Styles.

#2 Shinsuke Nakamura is nothing more than an afterthought

Nakamura? Who?
Nakamura? Who?

It's a damn shame that WWE doesn't acknowledge how valuable Shinsuke Nakamura is to the company and how perfect he is between the ropes.

Since The Artist is having a hard time finding his foot in the main roster, the former NXT Champion's absence from the blue brand has been concerning a lot of the fans.

His opponents tend to be victimized by Randy Orton in the end, leaving his heel turn senseless and completely useless. While the King of Strong Style does hold the U.S. Championship, he was not even a part of WWE Super Show-Down.

Considering that Shinsuke Nakamura's run has been very disappointing, booking him against Rey Mysterio at the 1000th episode of SmackDown won't do him any justice.

With the Mexican Sensation likely to beat the Japanese Icon, WWE has depreciated the entire value of Nakamura and made him an afterthought.

#3 Samoa Joe will snap and completely destroy the Charismatic Enigma

The Destroyer will return
The Destroyer will return

Judging by how WWE Super Show-Down ended for Samoa Joe, it seems obvious that the Destroyer might never be the WWE Champion under Vince McMahon's radar.

However, the company might have already decided his next feud. Samoa Joe's match with Jeff Hardy was successful in teasing the fans of what's coming next.

Since the Charismatic Enigma returned to the blue brand and took the win, he did so by constantly attacking Joe's left leg that cost him the WWE Championship.

The former US Champion was announced the winner after the referee decided not to continue with the bout which left many fans surprised and disappointed.

While Jeff Hardy is on his way to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, this outcome was purposefully booked to let the fans know that these two superstars will be feuding next.

#4 Catering to the casual fans with nostalgia rather than pushing the future

Can you smell a pattern?
Can you smell a pattern?

Considering how Triple H is constantly changing the entire landscape of the business with NXT, it's a shame that WWE still continues to push part-time superstars for major events.

With WWE World Cup scheduled to decide the best in the world at WWE Crown Jewel, the four superstars that have been qualified for the tournament are mostly part-timers.

While Superstars like John Cena, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Kurt Angle, and Jeff Hardy will end up being part of the tournament, many current WWE superstars are being completely neglected.

If the same pattern continues on both brands on a weekly basis, then this will certainly solidify the belief that WWE does not believe in the current lot of performers they have on the main roster.

#5 Becky Lynch could be losing the Women's Championship at WWE Evolution

Will it happen?
Will it happen?

Despite being one of the most talented performers on the main roster, there's a strong possibility that Becky Lynch might lose the SmackDown Women's Championship soon.

Considering that both the superstars delivered a pretty average match tonight, WWE have certainly pushed Charlotte as a more reasonable competitor than Becky Lynch.

While the fans might be disappointed with how Charlotte is being pushed as a face in this feud, announcing a Last Woman Standing match at WWE Evolution could be a final nail in the coffin for Becky's title reign.

There's no denying that the Relentless Lass Kicker has established herself as a headline act on the main roster, but she might not walk out of Evolution as the Champion anymore.
