SmackDown star could finally return to the WWE ring after 17 months against Emma, according to fans

The most recent SmackDown episode had massive storyline developments as Emma and Madcap Moss kicked off a romantic angle on TV. The real-life couple are expected to feud with Karrion Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux moving forward, and not everyone is happy over the decision.

However, a large section of the fanbase is thrilled about seeing Scarlett wrestle inside a WWE ring after a long absence. The 31-year-old star has wrestled just twice for the company, with her first match happening way back in 2016.

Scarlett was brought in as an enhancement talent then, and she suffered an infamous loss to Nia Jax on a RAW episode. Scarlett didn't compete for WWE for another five years until June 25th, 2021, when she worked a dark match with Shotzi Blackheart after a SmackDown episode.

It's been nearly seventeen months since she stepped inside the WWE ring, and most fans are eager to see her be more than just a manager. It should be noted that the "Smokeshow" has wrestled outside WWE. Her last official match happened five months ago, in June 2022, on an MLW show.

Scarlett has primarily been used as a valet in WWE, and it might finally be time for her to embark on an in-ring run. As you can see from the Twitter reactions below, the WWE Universe believes that the current on-screen angle is leading to a singles match between Emma and Scarlett:

If Madcap and Emma together on TV leads to Scarlett wrestling in WWE, I'm ALL for it!! #SmackDown
