We are almost there - one of the most anticipated shows in all of WWE is coming live to us this Sunday. The build toward Survivor Series has been long and the card is shaping up to be absolutely incredible. There are some dream matches to look forward to, along with the traditional Survivor Series inter-brand Five-on-Five Elimination Matches. WWE's three brands will go to war on Sunday and only one will stand tall.

Brock Lesnar will defend his WWE Championship against Rey Mysterio in a clash between two wrestling legends. 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt will look to continue his hot streak, as he will defend his WWE Universal Championship against Daniel Bryan. Adam Cole will also defend his NXT Championship against the winner of the NXT: WarGames Triple Threat Match.

Two dream Triple Threat Matches are also lined up for the PPV. First, RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch will take on SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley and NXT Women's Champion Shayna Baszler in a hugely anticipated clash, while AJ Styles will face Shinsuke Nakamura and Roderick Strong, in a match that could possibly steal the show.

With all that in mind, let's take a look at the three biggest things that might happen at Survivor Series.


#3 Bayley wins the huge Triple Threat Match with help from Sasha Banks

One of the most anticipated clashes at this year's Survivor Series is the Triple Threat Match between Becky Lynch, Shayna Baszler, and Bayley. The build for this match has been stellar, with Baszler and Lynch taking the front seat, while the SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley has been portrayed as the underdog.

Despite her underdog status, the WWE Universe shouldn't sleep on the SmackDown Women's Champion. A huge shock may occur at Survivor Series.

Sasha Banks, Bayley's best friend, could help the SmackDown Women's Champion in getting the victory by interfering in the match to give her best friend a clear advantage over the other two competitors. Such a finish would also help in putting over both Bayley and Banks as top heels of the company.

#2 The Undisputed Era members win every one of their matches

At this moment in time, NXT's Undisputed Era is one of the most over stables in the WWE Universe and there's no doubt that they will be protected at Survivor Series.

Roderick Strong is going to face Shinsuke Nakamura and AJ Styles in a dream Triple Threat Match and to be fair, Strong is the underdog going into this bout. Then, NXT Tag Team Champions Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish are going to face The New Day and The Viking Raiders in a Tag Team Triple Threat Match.

Last but not the least, Adam Cole is set to defend his NXT Championship at Survivor Series against the winner of the NXT TakeOver: WarGames Triple Threat Match between Killian Dain, Damian Priest, and Pete Dunne.

Do not be surprised if Undisputed Era wins all of the above mentioned matches. With their advantageous nature, the faction tends to use the numbers game to assert their dominance. Look for the same this Sunday at Survivor Series.

#1 John Morrison returns to help NXT

What's a WWE pay-per-view without a surprise? WWE Creative does get some storylines horribly wrong, but one thing Vince McMahon is master of is that he can pull off an incredible return.

Survivor Series' traditional inter-brand Five-on-Five Elimination Matches are known for things like this. Throughout history, the WWE Universe has been witness to Superstars turning on each other, outsiders helping teams win matches, and whatever else Creative can pull out of the hat. Therefore, do not rule out the possibility of a huge return come Sunday night.

John Morrison is one name that comes to mind, as he has been linked to a WWE return for quite some time now. So, when either RAW or SmackDown appears to gain an advantage on Sunday, Triple H could start playing games and utilize his 'Option B.' A returning Morrison could intervene and help NXT win the brand war.

A return like this is a possibility, although the Chicago crowd would most definitely prefer it to be CM Punk!
