WWE has a lot going on within the ranks of the blue brand. SmackDown got a bit chaotic this week with the IC Title picture, but Big E is still within sight gaining his title back once again.
During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer broke down the current IC Title picture on SmackDown and explained the company’s current trajectory. Apollo Crews and Commander Azeez are formidable opponents, but they are just getting started.
“It looks like they may do a tag with Azeez and Sami Zayn against Kevin Owens and Big E, you know that’s what it sorta set up.”
It was noted that “the finish was to set up a Big E return, that finish wasn’t set up to blow-off Big E.” The IC Title picture is getting even more interesting as the weeks go by. Apollo Crews is still holding that title and doesn’t seem to want to let it go at all. He might end up with a couple of challengers very soon, and he currently has no match booked for WrestleMania Backlash on May 16th.
