That said, in the current landscape, there are several alliances brewing on television, which many fans would call unlikely. In this listicle, we will look at four unlikely WWE alliances we could see in 2026.

#4. Seth Rollins and The Street Profits

Seth Rollins and The Street Profits have found themselves dealing with a common problem in recent weeks. The Vision faction, consisting of Bron Breakker, Logan Paul, and Austin Theory, has been a force to be reckoned with.

On the RAW after WrestleMania 42, The Vision attempted to beat Rollins down before Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins surprisingly returned to save The Visionary. Since then, both sides have continued to cross paths while fighting the same enemies.

That said, the arrangement could eventually turn into a proper alliance. Rollins and Profits decided to stay out of each other’s way, but with a common enemy at hand, it has been difficult.

The partnership is still an unlikely one. Seth Rollins has built a reputation for being manipulative and unpredictable over the years, while The Street Profits have openly expressed that they don’t trust The Visionary due to his past.

However, the alliance could still benefit both sides. Rollins would gain reliable backup against The Vision, while Ford and Dawkins could eventually capture the World Tag Team Championship. Despite the lingering tension, the trio has shown signs of some chemistry, as Seth Rollins helped The Street Profits and Joe Hendry defeat the heel group in a six-man tag team match on this week’s RAW.

#3. Royce Keys and The MFTs could join forces on WWE SmackDown

Solo Sikoa has been trying to recruit Royce Keys into The MFTs for the past few weeks on SmackDown. The former AEW star has repeatedly rejected the offer despite Solo warning him that his opportunities to join the faction were running out.

However, the situation has slowly become more complicated. Royce Keys recently dismantled Tama Tonga in a singles match before later running down to save Damian Priest and R-Truth from a post-match beatdown at the hands of The MFTs.

That said, the closing moments of the segment raised a lot of questions. After clearing the ring, Keys stood there staring at The Street Champion and the rest of The MFTs.

The moment heavily teased that Royce Keys could eventually reconsider Solo’s offer and align himself with the faction. If that happens, it would instantly become one of the biggest heel turns on SmackDown.

There is also another interesting layer to the story. Keys has openly supported Jacob Fatu during his rivalry with Roman Reigns. Joining The MFTs could eventually put Royce Keys directly against The Samoan Werewolf as well.

#2. IYO SKY and Sol Ruca

IYO SKY recently faced Sol Ruca in a competitive singles match on WWE RAW shortly after the rookie star officially joined the red brand. Despite the loss, Ruca impressed many fans with her performance against the former Women’s World Champion.

That said, the most interesting moment came after the match. Instead of celebrating the victory aggressively, IYO SKY showed respect to Sol Ruca and even praised her backstage afterward.

The interaction could eventually lead to an alliance between the two stars. WWE could have SKY take Ruca under her wing and help guide her during the early stages of her main roster run.

At the same time, the storyline with Becky Lynch could further help develop the partnership. Following the match, Becky mocked Ruca backstage and dismissed her potential on the main roster. That could eventually lead to Sol chasing the Women’s Intercontinental Championship with The Genius of the Sky supporting her.

If booked correctly, Ruca eventually dethroning Becky Lynch for the title could become a major moment for the young star. However, the story does not necessarily need to end there. WWE could later have IYO SKY turn on Sol Ruca and begin a rivalry with her over the Women’s Intercontinental Championship.

#1. Jade Cargill and Jacy Jayne

Jade Cargill made a shocking return on last week’s SmackDown during a six-woman tag team match between Fatal Influence and Rhea Ripley, Charlotte Flair, and Alexa Bliss.

The former WWE Women’s Champion took out Ripley, allowing Jacy Jayne to capitalize on the distraction and pin Alexa Bliss for a major victory. However, the bigger story came after the bell.

Fatal Influence did not attack Jade Cargill, Michin, or B-Fab despite the tension inside the ring. Instead, Jayne’s faction slowly stepped aside and allowed the trio to take out Ripley, Flair, and Bliss.

That said, WWE may have quietly planted the seeds for a future alliance between The Storm and The Rockstar. Since they are the leaders of their respective groups, Cargill and Jayne could form a working partnership to counter the babyfaces.
