Can you believe that we are only days away from the final Saudi Arabia pay-per-view before WrestleMania- Super ShowDown? The lineup is pretty much set, and irrespective of whether or not a match or two get added during RAW, the lineup is pretty strong for now.
And by this, I mean the lineup with regard to the actual matches that have been advertised. There's the added element of sports entertainment that can absolutely turn things around and change the landscape of WWE.
So with that in mind, I present five unexpected betrayals that could happen at WWE Super ShowDown. Some of them may seem unlikely, but the greatest betrayals in WWE happen when you least expect them to.
I invite you to leave a comment and let me know what you think of all my picks.
#5 The Big Show costs the Street Profits their match
Usually, most factions in WWE only have three members. But the Monday Night Messiah seems to want his faction to grow and bloom, as the nWo did back in the days of yore. The Corporation and the Ministry of Darkness also did the same during the Attitude Era, so this could be a cool throwback.
The Big Show was one of the biggest foes (no pun intended) that Seth Rollins faced but I have a feeling that he could also turn heel in due course of time. And this is because his heel and face turns have become the stuff of legend (and of memes). Even though he is not advertised to be at the show, The Big Show could always come in to ally himself with the Monday Night Messiah by helping him and Murphy defeat the Street Profits.
Imagine how formidable a faction Seth Rollins will have then.
#4 The AoP turns on Rollins and Murphy
I don't know if this would have ordinarily been the case, but the injury to Samoa Joe may have just changed things around. I would have assumed that Kevin Owens and Samoa Joe vs. Murphy and Seth Rollins would have been the plan for the RAW Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania 36, but now the Monday Night Messiah and his disciple may need a replacement team to challenge them.
It was strange indeed that Rollins and Murphy became the RAW Tag Team Champions and not The AoP. I think it was done to set up a feud for a later date which would allow Akam and Rezar to turn face and take on Rollins and Murphy for the Tag Team Championships which should have rightfully been theirs.
Although the faction could always end, Rollins could always continue it by adding more and more members to the fold and give them the rub. Also, if Drew McIntyre does become the WWE Champion, he'll need new challengers, and it would make sense for Seth Rollins to step up into the Championship picture by dropping the tag team championship.
#3 Big E turns on Kofi Kingston following a big loss
There have been way too many rumors about The New Day splitting owing to the longevity of the faction and everything that they have accomplished for the company already. I have no doubt that all that unless something extraordinary were to happen, this is a faction that will go into the WWE Hall of Fame someday soon.
And now that the rumors seem to have died, this may be the best time to split The New Day up for good. Kofi Kingston could still have a great run as a top singles guy, because The Fiend will need new babyfaces to take on after WrestleMania and who is better than Kingston for the said role, I ask!
With Miz and John Morrison as the Tag Team Champions, I can totally imagine Heavy Machinery stepping up to take the titles from them. They are on fire at the moment, especially the very likable Otis.
Kofi Kingston vs. Big E could be the feud of the year.
#2 Sasha Banks turns on Bayley
There is more than one rumor doing the rounds that Bayley has her hands full with regard to WrestleMania. Her opponent will be none other than Sasha Banks if you buy into the said rumors, that is. And yet, Sasha Banks has been missing from TV for some time now and one wonders when this big turn is likely to happen.
Imagine the drama that will unfold if Bayley is able to put Naomi away and then Sasha Banks comes out to congratulate her and hug her friend. And then when she least expects it, Banks puts Bayley in her patented submission move, setting up the big feud for WrestleMania. People have wanted this match at a stage like WrestleMania, ever since the two women made magic back in their NXT days, changing women's wrestling forever.
I don't know if the audience will necessarily gravitate towards Sasha Banks as a babyface, but it sure beats having Banks as Bayley's sidekick because she is absolutely wasted in that role, in my opinion.
#1 Zelina Vega turns on Andrade
Andrade is one of the most talented individuals in the WWE roster at the moment and it is no wonder that he is the WWE United States Champion. And yet, not very long ago, Andrade was supended from WWE owing to a wellness policy violation and one wonders if he's back in the good graces of the company.
Since then, Zelina Vega has gone on to manage Angel Garza, and she's done quite a commendable job in terms of elevating him. I wonder if she costs him the Tuwaiq trophy in Saudi Arabia by turning on him, to set up a feud with Angel Garza for WrestleMania 36.
I think Andrade is popular enough by now for him to turn face and I also think that he could, in turn, be a critical component when it comes to building Garza as the next big thing from Latin America. If you do not believe me, just watch the video I've linked above.
The greatest wrestler in history, Ric Flair, had very high praise for Andrade and the latter responded to his comments in the video.
