The biggest question coming out of SmackDown was who the mysterious "hacker" figure was. As mentioned, we've been seeing graphics abruptly pop up on SmackDown for a while now. It's no coincidence and the initial thought was that it would set up the debut of Killer Kross - who many expected would skip NXT.

However, the Johnny Gargano-Tommaso Ciampa segment from last NXT had a video package that showed Kross' face, indicating his debut on the brand inevitable. So that rules him out of being the "hacker" figure that we saw on SmackDown.

After Mandy Rose and Sonya DeVille came out, the figure was seen in a hoodie and said: "The truth will be heard". He (or she) was the one that revealed the footage that may have led to the end of Fire and Desire.

The big question is as to who this figure is. The names that fans are speculating include the likes of Mustafa Ali and Ember Moon, but either way, it's most likely going to set up a big return.
