WWE SmackDown - 5 Possible surprises - John Cena forms a strange alliance, Temporary Champion crowned?

Could WWE SmackDown authority figure Sonya Deville insert herself into the mix once more? Now that Natalya can no longer compete as an active tag team competitor until she is cleared, Deville could tell Tamina that the only way for her to retain the title is if Deville herself becomes one-half of the Champions!

So when Natalya does return to WWE SmackDown, she becomes an instant babyface! Moreover, there's a readymade feud with Sonya Deville awaiting her!

Remember the WWE SmackDown segment between Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair? They pretended to be the best of friends at first, and then, out of nowhere, Banks turned on Belair.

We could see a repeat of that, especially if Cena and Balor are forced to team up, because the latter has let it be known that he's no John Cena fan. Especially after the events on the Blue brand from two weeks ago between Balor, Cena, Reigns, and Corbin.
