5 Surprises That Could Happen in WWE Next Month

September was not the most eventful month for WWE, really. Sure, 'Hell in a Cell' was a solid pay-per-view event, but RAW and SmackDown Live have felt unimportant since the show. RAW even garnered the lowest viewership in history not very long ago. For WWE to bounce back next month, they need some major surprises.

In this article I shall suggest 5 surprises that could potentially take WWE by storm next month. Chime in with your own suggestions in the comments below. None of this is for certain, so let's all have some fun.

Also let me know what you think of the surprises I've suggested. Do you think that they could pay dividends in the long run?

I would love to hear your thoughts and feelings...

#5 Rey Mysterio joins SmackDown Live

Could Mysterio be the man to dethrone AJ Styles?

I know that AJ Styles and Samoa Joe are in the midst of a very personal rivalry at the moment. And yet, as RAW's viewership hits record low numbers, SmackDown Live isn't doing much better either. The blue brand just seems to suffer from a lack of top tier legitimate stars at this point.

Enter Rey Mysterio. Not only do rumours abound that Rey Mysterio may have signed a deal with WWE, Mysterio himself has expressed his desire to come to WWE and take on some of the top talent in the company. If you saw him compete either in the Royal Rumble either this year or in his NJPW appearances, you know that the legend hasn't lost a step.

I personally think that Mysterio and Styles could have quite the rivalry, if both men are given a chance to mix it up in the ring someday. The same could be said of Mysterio and Bryan.

#4 The Bella Twins go heel

Is it only a matter of time before The Bellas turn on Rousey?

There is a lot of heat on Brie Bella right now from the WWE Universe because of how she accidentally injured Liv Morgan. From a storyline perspective, it may make sense for WWE to turn her and his twin sister heel. The Bellas always fare much better when they play negative characters anyway.

What makes me think that this is a real possibility is the fact that many are saying that Ronda Rousey vs. Nikki Bella will be the main event for Evolution. I don't know how I personally feel about the match, but I do know that I would be more invested in the contest if Bella were a heel and Rousey a babyface. A face vs. face contest just sounds a bit dull.

Maybe the Bellas could take on Sasha Banks and Bayley in due course of time. It would certainly help all four of the women, if such a feud were to take place!

#3 Bray Wyatt appears on SmackDown Live

Could we see the Eater of Worlds in the blue brand?

With Matt Hardy possibly retiring, there is literally nothing for Bray Wyatt to do on RAW right now. The roster is far too stacked and I daresay that he is not as popular as he once used to be. In my opinion, he could fare much better on SmackDown Live. Especially if he teams up with Luke Harper again.

Wyatt and Harper could spice up the tag team division, by taking on The New Day in a fresh program. It would give the current SmackDown Tag Team Champions new opponents to work against.

#2 Lana turns on Rusev

Is Rusev in for yet another shock after Aiden English?

Aiden English is playing games with Rusev right now. He suggested that Lana had an unfaithful night in Milwaukee with someone. Of course, this could all be a ruse.

But what if the plan is to have Rusev lose all his friends and become the Bulgarian Brute again? This could lead to him embarking on a quest to become WWE Champion by himself. Even Lana could be shown to be unfaithful, much like English was.

Maybe English and Lana pair up after the Rusev-Lana pairing ends. English certainly needs a valet far more than Rusev does.

#1 Drew McIntyre becomes the next Paul Heyman guy

Now this could add a whole new dimension to the existing feud

It is clear that Brock Lesnar's days in WWE are currently numbered. It is all too likely that Crown Jewel will be his last appearance in a long, long time. Which means that Paul Heyman may pair up with someone before that. Enter Drew McIntyre.

McIntyre is exactly the kind of superstar that Paul Heyman may be paired with. He's got all the makings of a star and a future world champion. McIntyre and Heyman could make an unstoppable unit.

We already saw the seeds for McIntyre breaking up with Ziggler being planted on RAW recently. It would be an upgrade if he were to sign with Heyman.

And this could add a whole new dimension to McIntyre's current feud with Dean Ambrose.
