5 Things WWE subtly told us on SmackDown - Real reason for Edge vs. Roman Reigns, Possible Money in the Bank card spoiler, Change in character for a former Champion? 

What did WWE subtly tell us on SmackDown this week? Forgive the author for his attempt at this article as Rohit Nath is away for the weekend and please be gentle with your feedback.

This was the fallout episode of SmackDown after Money in the Bank and while the show itself was underwhelming, it did set up quite a few things very nicely. That said, so much of it consists of just one rehash after another, one has to wonder if it was wise to let so much of the roster go.

Here are 5 things WWE told us on SmackDown, albeit in a subtle manner that you may not have immediately glimpsed. Let us know your thoughts and comments in the section below and if you think we missed out on anything, let us know.

#5 Did Edge return to SmackDown to set up a Seth Rollins program?

We saw Seth Rollins asking for a shot against Universal Champion and former Shield-mate Roman Reigns on SmackDown. We also saw Edge return in the final SmackDown segment to set up a match, hopefully for Money in the Bank. Not having a match on SmackDown prior would be ideal.

We just saw Edge getting pinned comprehensively at WrestleMania! Why would he return for a match against Roman Reigns? Especially if you consider that Reigns pinned not one, but two men at the same time, for a dominant victory.

We have to assume that it's leading to a Seth Rollins vs. Edge match, which is the rumored featured attraction at SummerSlam.

All of these components will come together to set up this first-time-ever dream match between the old and the new school. How it all comes together should unfold on SmackDown over the weeks that follow.

#4 Will we get the same WWE SmackDown Women's Championship match again?

The fact that the SmackDown Women's Champion got pinned on this week's show is an indication of what's in store for us in the future. We'll get a Bianca Belair vs. Bayley match once again at Money in the Bank.

As good as the two women are, one has to wonder if this is an exciting prospect for fans after watching them tussle for so very long already. It also really showcases the lack of depth in the SmackDown women's division.

#3 Is King Corbin coming back in a brand new avatar?

The King is dead. That's what the Twitter handle of SmackDown star Baron Corbin says!

Clearly, Shinsuke Nakamura is going to play king until the King of the Ring tournament (hopefully) returns.

But does this mean that Corbin gets to return to SmackDown with a new character after he stormed off during an interview this week? Perhaps in the 'Lone Wolf' gimmick that he was playing some time ago!

#2 WWE has big plans for SmackDown star Liv Morgan

SmackDown star Liv Morgan is clearly seen in a very different light compared to her former tag team partner Ruby Riott. When the latter was released, Morgan picked up a pretty big victory on SmackDown.

One has to wonder if she'll go all the way and win the Money in the Bank match. She's definitely one of the top contenders.

#1 Tag team superstars will compete in singles matches until the Mysterios are back

We miss SmackDown star Rey Mysterio just as much as you do! Until he is back again, we invite you to check out what Seth Rollins had to say about him in this Sportskeeda Wrestling exclusive.

It just seems that with the Mysterios out of commission, the SmackDown Tag Team division will compete in singles action. We saw a glimpse of that in the form of Jimmy Uso vs. Dolph Ziggler. The question is whether the SmackDown Tag Team Champions will go after Roman Reigns or continue to rule the division they represent once they're back!
