Nick Aldis to be replaced by WWE legend as SmackDown General Manager due to major injury? Potential angle explored
Nick Aldis is the current General Manager of WWE SmackDown. However, during a recent edition of the blue brand, Kevin Owens expressed his frustration and blamed several factors for his current situation, with Nick Aldis being one of them. In a heated video package, The Prizefighter warned that he was on the verge of snapping, and the resulting chaos would be WWE's fault.
This has sparked speculation about Owens potentially attacking The National Treasure on SmackDown, holding him responsible for not being the Undisputed WWE Champion. KO could argue that if Nick’s management at Saturday Night's Main Event had been better, he might have walked away with the title, as there was no referee in the ring to count the pinfall when Owens had his opponent down.
This frustration could lead Owens to snap and deliver a devastating package piledriver to the SmackDown GM. Such an attack might sideline the SmackDown GM in the storyline, leaving his position vacant. This vacancy could pave the way for WWE legend William Regal to step in as the new General Manager of SmackDown.
Regal, currently serving as an on-screen character in NXT, could be written off NXT and brought to the main roster if Owens injures Aldis.
As SmackDown GM, Regal could look to enforce order on the blue brand, demanding respect from Kevin Owens and attempting to rein in his villainous tendencies. This development could be a turning point in Owens' heel storyline, elevating his character to a new level of intensity and unpredictability.
It remains to be seen how this angle will unfold and what Kevin Owens’ next move will be following his recent ominous warning.
Kevin Owens destroying Nick Aldis could lead to a major WWE match
If Kevin Owens destroys Nick Aldis on SmackDown, it could pave the way for The National Treasure to make his in-ring debut in WWE. Before joining the Stamford-based promotion, Nick Aldis was an active competitor in the squared circle.
However, since his arrival in Triple H's regime, he has primarily served as an on-screen authority figure. If Owens attacks Aldis, forcing him into a hiatus, it could set up a dramatic return for Aldis, where he seeks vengeance against The Prizefighter.
This could eventually lead to a highly anticipated match between the two. A showdown between Aldis and Owens would undoubtedly inject more intrigue into the ongoing Kevin Owens saga.
