Super Show-Down is WWE's first pay-per-view live from Australia and the main selling point of the show is that The Undertaker and Triple H will face off for the final time in one-on-one competition.

The show also boasts four Championship matches as well as a number of personal feuds that are set to reach their climax on the other side of the world, which could be why the ticket prices for the event are so high and the WWE Universe is hotly anticipating the matches that are set to take place.

Since the event is so far away, there is room for a number of shocks and surprises as part of the show, much like back at The Greatest Royal Rumble when WWE was able to bring back a number of interesting names as part of the main event match.

Here are some of the boldest predictions for the show, that would definitely add to the shock factor of the event.


#5 Samoa Joe makes history

Is it time for a new face to run the place?
Is it time for a new face to run the place?

There are various reports surrounding Super Show-Down that state that no Championships are expected to change hands as part of the show. There are only four Championships on the line in Melbourne, but easily the biggest match amongst them is the rubber match between AJ Styles and Samoa Joe.

The two men have one win each in their deeply personal rivalry but Joe has still been unable to dethrone Styles, who has held the WWE Championship now for almost a year. The two men collide in a no count out, no disqualification match and it could see Joe become the first WWE Champion crowned on Australian soil.

Joe has reached a new level throughout his feud with AJ and even though he has also reached new lows by visiting AJ's house and bringing his family into a professional matter, he's also proved that he's the kind of Champion that SmackDown Live needs and Saturday could be the perfect opportunity to give him his crown.

#4 Elias and Kevin Owens Implode

Elias really should have done his research before he decided to make friends with Kevin Owens, the former Universal Champion doesn't have a great track record, since Sami Zayn and Chris Jericho found out the hard way that friendship doesn't stand in the way of Kevin Owens getting exactly what he wants.

Owens and Elias take on John Cena and Bobby Lashley on Saturday morning and if Lashley and Super Cena are able to pick up the victory, then it's easy to assume that Owens will put the blame on Elias and will then attack him after the match. Friendships just don't work for Owens, he is a lone soldier and Elias could find that out the hard way as part of tomorrow's show.

#3 Nikki Bella turns on Ronda Rousey

Super Show-Down might look like an overhyped house show on paper, but between the lines, there are a number of combustible elements and with Evolution fast approaching, every woman wants to stand up and be counted.

Nikki Bella has been rumored to be facing Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey at Evolution, but with three weeks to ago, the two women are still seen as close friends, which is why Nikki needs to turn on Rousey this weekend and either end Rousey's unbeaten run or attack her after the match.

Egos will be running wild since Nikki was once the biggest star in the Women's Division and if Rousey refuses to tag out or takes the victory from Nikki when she was ready for her finisher, then it would be enough for her to turn on Rousey and set up their match on October 28th.

#2 Kurt Angle returns to WWE

Kurt Angle has been missing from WWE TV for a number of weeks now and in that time Baron Corbin has been playing favorites and handing himself Universal Championship shots. It's obvious that the former United States Champion is out of his depth as "acting General Manager" which is why Angle should at least make an appearance at Super Show-Down to show Corbin that he isn't the General Manager just yet.

The duo is expected to face off at Survivor Series for control of Monday Night Raw, but if Angle made his return to the company in Australia, the build could begin and creative would then have enough time to put together a believable storyline between Angle and Corbin ahead of next month's show.

#1 Roman Reigns turns on The Shield

Will it be Roman Reigns who turns on his brothers?
Will it be Roman Reigns who turns on his brothers?

If it's been hinted then it probably won't happen. That's the rule that WWE like to live by and the fact that Dean Ambrose's heel turn has been pushed over the past few weeks means that it's not likely to be the Lunatic Fringe that turns on his brothers. When The Shield first split back in 2014 it was Dean Ambrose that was built as the main threat to the team for weeks before Seth Rollins shocked the world when he turned on his family to join The Authority.

The fact that WWE has already put it out there that Ambrose is the most likely one to turn heel, means that it's more than likely going to be Seth Rollins or Roman Reigns. Rollins has already done it once and the weight of the company broke his knee, which is why Reigns would be the perfect candidate. The WWE Universe have wanted it for a long time and now that Ambrose has shown his true colors, it could be time for Reigns to show his.
