2 Shocking heel and face turns that could happen at Survivor Series 2018

Survivor Series is just a few hours away now and the WWE universe is eagerly waiting to see what the company has in store for this year's edition of the cross-brand extravaganza.

As usual, NXT set an incredibly high bar for the weekend last night with their annual NXT Takeover: WarGames II event, and the main roster are going to have to bring their A-game tonight to maintain that level of quality.

The Survivor Series match card this year is stacked up many interesting match ups. The show is going to feature 3 major first time ever match ups - Daniel Bryan vs Brock Lesnar, Shinsuke Nakamura vs Seth Rollins, and Ronda Rousey vs Charlotte Flair, as well as three Raw Vs SmackDown team encounters.

Major superstars like Becky Lynch, Randy Orton, Dean Ambrose, and AJ Styles are currently not scheduled to appear at the show but the majority of them will be in attendance tonight to possibly interfere in their rivals matches.

Given Survivor Series is a major PPV we can expect some character transformations of major superstars during the course of the show -

Here are 2 heel and 2 face turns that might happen at Survivor Series -

#4 Dolph Ziggler (face turn)

Dolph Ziggler

Drew McIntyre's impending rise towards the top of the food chain is the major reason why this turn is probably going to happen sooner rather than later.

The seeds for this have already been sown on the most recent edition of Monday Night Raw when Drew McIntyre indirectly insulted Dolph Ziggler and asked him to compete with Finn Balor.

Drew McIntyre is clearly being positioned for the main event run in the near future so it makes sense that his association with Ziggler will come to an end soon.

Coming into Survivor Series, both Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre are part of Team Raw for the 5 on 5 traditional match against the Team SmackDown Live.

There is an argument to be made that, in comparison to the other members of the team, Ziggler is the weakest performer on Team Raw, and if he somehow costs his team the victory, then he could end up on the receiving end of an attack from his current tag-team partner.

#3 Shane McMahon (heel turn)

The Prodigal son - Shane McMahon

The commissioner of Smackdown live was rumored to turn heel after winning the WWE World Cup in Saudi Arabia, but that did not materialize. Shane McMahon is currently part of the Smackdown live's team for 5 on 5 traditional Survivor Series match.

There is a possibility that McMahon might snap at the event if his team does not emerge victorious, especially if it as a result of internal rivalries among his team-mates. If this does happen, then he could well follow the route of his former subordinate and current WWE champion, Daniel Bryan and turn heel at the show.

This would lead to a wide array of new interesting storylines going forward and would also rejuvenate his fading babyface character.

#2 Charlotte Flair (heel turn)

Will this be the scene at Survivor Series this Sunday?

Charlotte Flair is set to take on Roda Rousey at Survivor Series in a first time ever match up. Both the superstars involved in the match currently portray the role of a face on their respective brands.

Charlotte Flair seemingly finished her feud with Becky Lynch at Evolution last month, so it came as somewhat of a surprise when Becky Lynch handpicked Charlotte Flair as her replacement to take on Rousey on this week's SmackDown Live.

Given that she was ruled out of the match at the last minute, there is a strong chance that "The Man" might interfere during this match to distract Ronda Rousey and help her brand gain the upper hand.

Even if Charlotte Flair loses(which looks likely) there is a high chance that she and Becky Lynch could team up after the match to beat-down Ronda Rousey, planting the seeds for the long rumoured Four Horsewomen Vs Four Horsewomen match at a later event.

#1 The Miz (face turn)

There is a very high chance that The Miz, as a face, could enter into a feud with current WWE Champion, Daniel Bryan

A natural heel like The Miz turning face might seem a little far-fetched at the first instinct but it is not completely impossible considering the recent turn of events on Smackdown live.

Currently, there is a dearth of legit main event level faces on Smackdown as they only have AJ Styles, Rey Mysterio, and Jeff Hardy. All the other major superstars like Daniel Bryan, Randy Orton, Samoa Joe, Shinsuke Nakamura, and the Miz are currently working as heels.

So the company will be forced to turn at least one of the top heels into a face to balance the field. The Miz looks the likeliest one amongst them to turn, given his storied history with current WWE champion Daniel Bryan. There is a very good chance of a potential WWE championship program for Miz with the heel champion Daniel Bryan, and if that is the case, then a face turn may be on the cards for him very soon.
