In case there is a wrestling fan out there that did not know, SmackDown will be moving to FOX on October 4th, 2019. WWE has already started its build toward the big move.

While WWE has already announced some high profile names like: The Undertaker, Sting, Bill Goldberg, Kurt Angle, Jerry 'The King' Lawler, Hulk Hogan, and so on, the company also announced a blockbuster matchup between WWE Champion Kofi Kingston and Brock Lesnar.

Obviously, it wouldn't be wrong to say that SmackDown's FOX debut promises to be an epic saga.

Given the show is just 2 weeks away, the WWE rumor mill has been buzzing with speculations and predictions for the event. Given how things unfolded this week in WWE, the excitement and anticipation among fans regarding the event has been skyrocketing.

In an effort to feed the widespread curiosity in the WWE Universe, we are going to discuss three huge things WWE could be planning for SmackDown's FOX debut.


#3 The Rock makes a surprising return

Even though The Rock is not currently advertised for SmackDown's debut on FOX, his return could be one of the many surprises WWE might have planned for the night.

According to recent reports, WWE has approached the former WWE Champion to kickstart SmackDown's journey on FOX. Chances of 'The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment' making a surprising return are higher than ever.

This grand spectacle would not be complete without The Rock's charismatic presence on the show, as 'The People's Champion' has been instrumental to SmackDown's success over the years. As a matter of fact, it was The Rock who first coined the term SmackDown, so it would make complete sense if WWE had 'The Brahma Bull' show up on October 4th to kick things off in grand fashion.

#2 Brock Lesnar becomes the new WWE Champion

On the most recent episode of SmackDown Live, WWE announced that Kofi Kingston will be defending his WWE Championship against 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar on the October 4th FOX debut of SmackDown Live. Brock Lesnar means ratings, especially on network television, where 'The Beast' has rarely appeared. Chances are high that Lesnar may be given another world championship run, only this time with the Blue Brand's WWE Championship.

Kofi Kingston's recent stint as WWE Champion has become somewhat stale. Furthermore, WWE data shows that Kingston has been one of the worst drawing champions in the history of WWE. That shouldn't happen with Brock Lesnar.

WWE CEO Vince McMahon won't take any chances and will likely kick off SmackDown's FOX debut by crowning his favorite part-timer as WWE Champion. While this decision may leave people divided on the Internet, Brock Lesnar is a huge name around the world, and would bring more viewers to SmackDown. Furthermore, the move would certainly spice things up on the Blue Brand.

#1 WWE lays down the breadcrumbs for The Undertaker vs Sting

While there is no denying the fact that SmackDown's FOX debut is going to be a grand spectacle, it could very well turn out to be the beginnings of something much bigger, as both The Undertaker and Sting are being advertised for the upcoming event. While WWE has been teasing a blockbuster matchup between these two megastars on social media for quite a while now, recent reports suggest that The Undertaker vs Sting maybe be in the plans for the next PPV in Saudi Arabia.

Given the fact that both of these legends will be under one roof on October 4th, creative could use the opportunity to lay down the breadcrumbs for the highly anticipated matchup between the duo. Creative could have Sting confront 'The Deadman' or even challenge for a one-on-one matchup.

Even though both The Undertaker and Sting are past their primes, a dream match between these two legendary Superstars would sell out any arena. Even in 2019, The Undertaker vs Sting would certainly be 'best for business'.
