#4 The history between WWE SmackDown stars Blake and Murphy

Many fanse may remember Murphy as Seth Rollins' disciple on RAW and WWE SmackDown, and later Aalyah Mysterio's boyfriend. But do not forget that Blake and Murphy were quite the unit when they were a part of the NXT roster.

Long before Blake and Murphy arrived on the WWE SmackDown roster and Alexa Bliss became entranced by The Fiend, the trio used to be a force to be reckoned with on NXT.

And now, WWE has the chance to explore this history between Blake and Murphy. Murphy's potential feud with King Corbin could lead to a program with the former partners. Their time in NXT can be touched upon, and it could be a very interesting storytelling device on the WWE SmackDown brand. Murphy could even call on Dominik Mysterio as a new tag team partner against King Corbin's allies.

We also know that Blake can go in the ring. So could we potentially see Wesley Blake throw it down with Murphy when the time is right in a massive, personal, singles matchon WWE SmackDown?
