WWE SummerSlam 2019 is almost here and, despite a sort of lackluster card, WWE could still throw a few surprises at us. From the main event to the opening matches, WWE could have some twists planned to send fans home happy.

WWE SummerSlam Rumor Roundup: Why Goldberg is facing Ziggler, Huge match cancelled?

#5 Sasha Banks makes her WWE return and attacks Becky Lynch

Sasha Banks

Sasha Banks hasn’t been seen on WWE television since WrestleMania 35 earlier this year. Banks reportedly was unhappy with her and Bayley losing their tag-team titles and talks between her and WWE for a return hasn’t come to fruition yet.

However, after Becky Lynch called out Sasha Banks earlier this week, could WWE throw us a huge surprise by having Banks return at SummerSlam and take out Becky Lynch after her match against Natalya?

Lynch recently had some strong words for Sasha Banks after being asked about the possibility of the match between the two:

“Oh yeah, if Sasha Banks could hack it, and she didn’t just get her jacket and cheese off crying, like Ronda Rousey, then I would love to face her. But unfortunately she couldn’t take losing. She lost the tag team championship and she was gone! She was gone! Some people can’t hack losing. They can’t step up. They can’t realize that when you lose, it’s just a chance to get better, it’s a chance to learn, and it’s a chance to grow. Instead she wants to talk about, “Oh the freaking wind and the butterflies and the freaking cocoons. And I’m a rabbit that’s coming from the Earth and the soil.” And whatever else she wants to put on her little freaking social media c***. Come find me Sasha, if you want it!”

Lynch calling out Sasha Banks could be the precursor to a long awaited feud between the two. It all depends on where talks between WWE and Banks are though.

#4 The Miz helps Kevin Owens even the odds

Will Kevin Owens shut Shane McMahon up?

SummerSlam could be Kevin Owens’ last night in WWE if he loses against Shane McMahon. McMahon is bound to have backup somewhere close at hand in the form of Drew McIntyre and Elias. Three men might prove too much for Owens to overcome, but one man who could surprisingly come to KO’s aid is The Miz.

Miz and Shane have had their differences, and if Miz comes to Owens’ aid, he can finally get some comeuppance against 'The Best In The World'.

#3 Ember Moon wins the SmackDown Women’s Championship

Bayley will defend her title against Ember Moon

At this point, it doesn’t look like there will be too many title changes at SummerSlam this year, at least if you’re going by the odds before the show.

One match in which WWE could surprise us with a title change is the SmackDown Women’s Championship bout between Bayley and Ember Moon. Bayley’s title run has been quite uneventful so far, and WWE could switch things up in the SmackDown Women’s Division by having Ember Moon win the belt.

#2 Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan get into a physical confrontation

Roman Reigns

According to rumors, one of the big matches cancelled from the SummerSlam card was a match between Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan, which management has pushed back to a later date.

With both Reigns and Bryan off the card at SummerSlam, WWE could have a quick segment between the two or even an impromptu match between Reigns and Erick Rowan. The segment could end with Reigns and Bryan having to be separated by a bunch of referees to really hype up the feud.

It would certainly get people to tune in to SmackDown on Tuesday.

#1 Brock Lesnar destroys Seth Rollins, Rollins turns heel?

Will Seth Rollins get laid out again?

Despite WWE setting up Seth Rollins as a massive underdog ahead of SummerSlam, there’s a good chance that it will still be Brock Lesnar who leaves the biggest party of the Summer with the Universal Championship still around his waist.

This could be done to either move Lesnar onto a new challenger in the coming months or to turn Seth Rollins heel.
