#4. No need for another relationship storyline with Alexa Bliss

WWE dosen't really need a second relationship storyline on Friday Night SmackDown.

Whether fans want to it admit it or not, it is very unlikely that Alexa Bliss will be revealed as Sister Abigail, which means the company is looking at exploring a relationship storyline. The problem with that however is that Friday Night SmackDown already has Otis and Mandy Rose doing a similar angle.

Not only does Alexa Bliss and Braun Strowman being in a relationship storyline clog up valuable television time, it also is too similar to that of Mandy Rose and Otis. In all honesty, doing a relationship angle is fine and is sometimes successful if done right, but having two at the same time on the same show seems excessive.

If nothing else, WWE is trying to find something that will resonate with fans and while relationship angles are usually a good idea, they have been a little overdone lately. That's why WWE would have probably been much better off if they avoided having The Fiend attack and possibly kidnap Alexa Bliss even if it does connect the dots between Alexa Bliss and Braun Strowman's previous connection during the time of the Mixed Match Challenge.
