Top 5 Feuds to Come Out Of the Superstar Shakeup
The 2018 Superstar Shakeup has dramatically changed the landscape of WWE. We can be cautiously optimistic about the wrestling that we are going to have the luxury of watching over the course of the year.
Along with that, the post-Wrestlemania returns and debuts have further bolstered the rosters. Both brands have been completely freshened up, and now the opportunities are endless.
To maximise this potential and buzz that WWE has generated, they must go down the following rivalry paths to ensure that we do not look at this draft as a 'missed opportunity'.
#5 Sanity vs The Bludgeon Brothers
Harper and Rowan are just too dominant on Smackdown right now. The top tag teams in the division have been squashed by the pair and they have no believable rivals for their titles anymore.
The constant domination of WWE's biggest tag team in the past 5 years, The New Day and the domination of tag team stalwarts, The Usos, has given them a rub that they could only imagine.
Sanity (Killian Dain, Eric Young and Alexander Wolfe) has the potential to be a massive deal in WWE, but that will happen only if WWE books them correctly. The former NXT Tag Team Champions were the ones that ended the Authors of Pain dominance on NXT.
Sanity were later defeated by The Undisputed Era, however, their stock is intact just because of how cool the stable is.
Using Eric Young as the leader. and Wolfe and Dain as the henchmen, Sanity can be shown as the only believable challengers to the titles, considering everyone else has been destroyed. Of course, an argument can be made for the Good Brothers, but considering how they were booked on Raw, it's going to take ages to re-book them into contenders for a force as dominant as Harper and Rowan.
The matches will have a terrific dynamic. Harper and Rowan are just larger men, and Killian Dain is the only one that can match them for brute strength and size. Sanity strategising how to play to to their strengths and win the titles would make for interesting television.
Harper and Rowan will just stick to using power moves and brutality, whereas Sanity need to be crafty to overcome this challenge. This is definitely a path that WWE should go down, as the potential of this feud is very encouraging for Smackdown.
