5 things WWE got right on SmackDown Live this week (1 May 2018) 

#5 The main event scene is stacked with megastars

The WWE Championship is once again becoming the company's top title at the moment

A few years ago, who would've predicted that AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura and Samoa Joe would all be main-event megastars on SmackDown Live? These three world-class athletes are incredibly talented wrestlers who can carry any programme or Superstar on the roster.

This week on SmackDown Live, AJ Styles came down to the ring to shed a little light on his match with Nakamura at Backlash, and while fans expected Nakamura to interrupt him right out of the gate, a familiar rival came out to threaten the WWE Champion.

Samoa Joe has been on fire as of late, and this week was no different. He told Styles that after he is done destroying Roman Reigns at the Backlash, he is coming for the WWE Championship. This is obviously going to be the case, as reports indicate that Joe is in line for a massive push on the blue brand. Therefore, a dream match between Samoa Joe and AJ Styles can be expected at any one of WWE's big four pay-per-views this year.

But, it is difficult to judge whether the eventual match between Joe and Styles would even be for the WWE Title, as Shinsuke Nakamura has reached his peak on SmackDown Live and his heel persona screams World Champion. Everything right from small details such as his facial expressions, to the way he commands himself on the mic and in the ring, has been done to perfection.

SmackDown Live may be considered the "B show" in the company, but when three megastars are circling one title, it is hard not to get excited.
