Vince McMahon surprised every member of the WWE Universe when he decided to make a new rule, known as the 'WWE Wildcard Rule' which would allow 3 RAW superstars to appear on SmackDown Live on a given occasion and vice versa. This week on RAW we saw SmackDown's Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan and WWE Champion Kofi Kingston make their presence felt under the Wildcard rule.

However, by the end of the episode two more SmackDown superstars, Elias and Lars Sullivan showed up on the red brand, much to the confusion of the fans. The blue brand's weekly episode will air tonight and all the fans are waiting in readiness as to which RAW superstar will appear on SmackDown Live.

Here are the 3 possible candidates -

#3 Sami Zayn

Will he make a surprise appearance?

The way Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods attacked Kevin Owens on SmackDown, one can expect the Prizefighter to align himself with a heel on Tuesday night soon. With the Wildcard Rule active now, the former Universal Champion can also bring his best friend Sami Zayn who is currently a part of RAW, to equal the odds.

Sami Zayn was brutalized by Braun Strowman on RAW this week and it seems like The Underdog From The Underground will feud with the Monster Amongst Men in the near future. The only reason why he may not appear could be his health after the Monster's attack. But, with no friends on SmackDown, Owens will be forced to call up Sami for his help.

The Canadian duo can once again assert their dominance over the blue brand even if it is for one night. WWE can have a tag team match between the teams of Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens against Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods in the night's main event.

#2 The Miz

Is a cameo on the cards?

Shane McMahon is all set to crown new SmackDown tag team champions on the upcoming episode which means he will appear inside the ring on the show. As seen on this week's RAW, Shane engaged in a brawl with the Miz before escaping the arena. If WWE wants to hype up their storyline then they should have the A-Lister appear on SmackDown Live and unleash another assault.

We can even have an interesting situation if the B Team comes out to defend Shane because Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel are former members of the Miztourage. WWE Creative can end this segment with Shane O' Mac hitting a Coast to Coast to the Miz and having the last laugh. The WWE Universe knows that the Miz will get the big win in the Steel Cage match at Money in the Bank.

Hence, it makes sense to give the heel the upper hand in this segment.

#1 AJ Styles

The #1 contender of the Universal Championship, AJ Styles mentioned during his promo on RAW that he may go up to SmackDown Live and bring his friends to RAW just like Seth Rollins brought Roman Reigns. Though Rollins and Reigns did not gang up on AJ Styles, the WWE Universe is foreseeing an AJ Styles heel turn down the line, which means that he could very well appear on SmackDown and convince his friends to appear on RAW.

With the Good Brothers on RAW, it will be an intriguing thing to see whom AJ Styles chooses. WWE can keep the fans guessing by having Styles just appear for a backstage interview, where he can once again inform that he is here to bring his friends over to RAW.
