5 twists WWE could be planning for WWE TLC 2018

In what could possibly be a very incredible event, WWE will be live from the SAP Center to host TLC this Sunday, which will be the tenth event under the chronology.

With 12 matches confirmed for the night, the fans are definitely in for a long night and with that being said, the creative team has a lot of expectations to fulfil.

While there are matches on the card that have all the potential in the world to bring the house down in California, the lack of rejuvenating ideas have diminished the credibility of the event.

Since the show will be without the Universal Champion, one wonders which match will close the proceedings and end the night on a high.

There's no denying that SmackDown Live has an upper hand in this scenario, with their matches having a more appealing quality than the one's scheduled from the red brand.

Judging by how things have transpired on both brands, will Vince McMahon deliver something unexpected and shock the world? Let's see.

Here are the 5 Last-Minute Shockers WWE could be planning for WWE TLC.

#1 Lars Sullivan debuts with Bray Wyatt and destroys Braun Strowman

There's no denying that Monday Night Raw has produced some of the most dreadful episodes in the brand's history; receiving strong backlash from the fans.

With Vince McMahon already returning to the red brand this Monday, the company could very well be dropping a bombshell on Sunday to shake things up.

Considering that Lars Sullivan is already slated to debut soon, debuting him alongside Bray Wyatt to destroy the Monster Among Men could be a thing of beauty.

Baron Corbin's rise to power on the red brand could be promising but would prove to be even more significant if he finds a way to get through Braun Strowman this Sunday.

While Strowman's availability is still unknown for Sunday, shocking the world with a Lars Sullivan debut could really set the tone for things to come in 2019.

Sullivan's intimidating presence alongside Bray Wyatt's cult philosophies could really alter the landscape of the red brand.

#2 Asuka becomes the Empress of SmackDown Live by winning the SmackDown Women's Championship

Personally speaking, I genuinely admire how Asuka has hijacked the spotlight from Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair and made her more relevant than she has ever been.

While she's been underutilized for a long long time, the company has finally started acknowledging the magnetic presence of the Empress of Tomorrow.

The former NXT Women's Champion will enter the SAP Center as a genuine threat and could certainly finish Becky Lynch's powerful reign as the Man of the WWE.

There's no denying that the creative team will protect all the three superstars, but Asuka's inclusion in the match could shake things up and shock the entire world.

Defeating Charlotte and Becky Lynch on the same night puts Asuka on a different level and certainly gives the other two women a chance to redeem themselves in the Royal Rumble match.

To be fair, Asuka deserves the win here and with rumours suggesting that Vince is genuinely impressed with the Empress, she is definitely shocking us all this Sunday.

#3 Randy Orton interrupts the WWE Championship match and finds his next victim in A.J. Styles

Finding strong ways to protect A.J. Styles

If latest rumors about A.J. Styles' next big feud are anything to take into consideration, then the Phenomenal One could very well be in trouble this Sunday.

There's no denying that Randy Orton has solidified himself as a sadistic heel who is enlightened in hurting his opponents and is currently feuding with Rey Mysterio.

While his rivalry with the Mexican Sensation could end this Sunday, the Viper could seize the moment and target the former WWE Champion to make a gigantic statement.

Something of this stature certainly protects A.J. Styles from losing to Daniel Bryan and would give the WWE Champion an easy way to move ahead into 2019.

Since there are plans for the Apex Predator and the Phenomenal One to lock horns at WrestleMania 35, striking at the perfect time could make things more personal between the two.

#4 Kurt Angle shows up to save Finn Balor from Drew Mcintyre, Baron Corbin, and Bobby Lashley

How will the Scottish Terminator deal with Angle?

Since Kurt Angle is almost confirmed to return to Monday Night Raw this week, there is a strong possibility that he would make his presence felt in California with TLC.

Considering that Finn Balor has been struggling to fight the odds, he definitely could receive a significant assistance from the Olympic Gold Medalist.

With the Scottish Terminator recently receiving Raw's Gold Medal of Excellence, this could very well be the right way to insert Kurt Angle back into the feud.

Things have not been quite right on Monday Night Raw and Angle's return could prove fruitful in boosting Raw's ratings and making things more clinical on the red brand.

There's no denying that Baron Corbin has been seeking help from both Drew Mcintyre and Bobby Lashley and with Finn Balor being Corbin's old rival, the Lone Wolf would definitely misuse his power to put Balor on the shelf.

#5 Seth Rollins gets in a heated confrontation with Brock Lesnar after losing the Intercontinental Championship to Dean Ambrose

In what has all the ingredients to stop the show at WWE TLC, the company could be looking to fuel things up for the Royal Rumble by letting Ambrose win the Intercontinental Championship.

After confronting Baron Corbin and complaining about what's wrong with Monday Night Raw, it certainly seems that the Architect is in line for a gigantic push.

While his feud with Ambrose started on a promising note, the fans have vehemently criticized the progression of the rivalry and want to see a full stop to the rivalry this Sunday.

Since Ambrose could be moving to a different foe, this gives Seth Rollins the golden opportunity to enter the Royal Rumble as the Ironman and win it all.

With the company desperately needing a rating boost, bringing the Beast Incarnate to confront Seth Rollins to end the night could very well take TLC by storm.

The fans are all in for the idea of seeing Seth Rollins lock horns with Brock Lesnar and with the Kingslayer savagely taunting Lesnar on Raw, it's about time that the Universal Champion returns for business on Raw.
