Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Dr. Chris Featherstone reported on the current status of Blair Davenport on SmackDown. The 28-year-old superstar joined the blue brand in April 2024 after a notable run in NXT.
Update on Davenport: “The right story will arise where she will shine. Landscape on SmackDown is very valuable.” She has been in discussions as someone to benefit from the 3-hour format (which I already reported, but can confirm again). So, they are working on the right story to insert her in so she can be properly showcased
