WWE SmackDown - 5 Surprises that could happen - Roman Reigns' devious plan, title change on the go-home show before Royal Rumble?

#3 Apollo Crews confirms his alliance with Roman Reigns and Jey Uso on WWE SmackDown

This alliance would be huge on WWE SmackDown

One of the most exciting developments on WWE SmackDown involves Apollo Crews, Roman Reigns, and Paul Heyman. The Blue brand has already teased this alliance, and we hope to see it turn into reality pretty soon. It is possible that we will see Apollo Crews join Reigns’ entourage this week itself, especially with Crews eyeing a title.

The perfect opportunity to book the alliance between Reigns and Crews would be during the latter’s title match against Big E. It would help create a new stable, protect the current champion, and sow the seeds of a rivalry between Big E and Roman Reigns as we move closer to WrestleMania. As for Reigns, he would love to have another backup on WWE SmackDown.

In all honestly, this storyline could be a turning point for Apollo Crews in WWE. He was one of the breakout Superstars last year and has shown his potential inside the ring. All he needs is a couple of good storylines that will establish him as a legitimate threat on WWE SmackDown. The fans will surely love to see this alliance create interesting angles on the Blue brand.
