Survivor Series is WWE's penultimate pay-per-view of the year and of course, it's the one night of the year that RAW and SmackDown go head to head. There are no titles on the line on Sunday night, instead, every wrestler is fighting for brand dominance and the chance to call their brand the best in WWE.
Over the years the result has come down to the elimination matches, which have now begun including the women who have their own part to play in the show. There are just seven matches that have been officially announced for this year's Survivor Series but there is plenty of room for interference, given that many of these stars have feuds of their own on their own brands.
Here are just eight last-minute predictions for this year's Survivor Series event.
#8. Big E is the difference-maker in the Tag Team Division at Survivor Series
Just over a month ago, The New Day were heartbreakingly split as part of the WWE Draft and this year at Survivor Series Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston will be representing Team RAW.
Big E was rumored to be part of a huge push following the split, but the former Champion hasn't even qualified for SmackDown's Survivor Series team and has instead been relegated to backstage segments with The Street Profits.
Big E has been building up his former tag team partners for weeks ahead of the Champion vs. Champion match this Sunday night, but it is easy to see Big E involving himself.
A heel turn was once rumored to be in Big E's future and he could decide to turn heel on his former teammates at Survivor Series and help Team SmackDown to pick up a crucial victory.
#7. Bobby Lashley vs. Sami Zayn is over in seconds at Survivor Series
Bobby Lashley has been built up on Monday Night RAW over the past few months and there's a reason why he is the CEO of The Hurt Business. Lashley has already shown what he can do against Sami Zayn from Money in the Bank 2018 and he could easily repeat this at Survivor Series 2020.
Zayn has spent a lot of the build-up to this match talking rather than acting whereas Lashley has set quite an example. It's hard to see Zayn getting any kind of offense in at Survivor Series and it will likely be a squash match between the two men that's over in seconds.
This would definitely give Zayn something that he could complain about in the coming weeks.
#6. Carmella interferes in the match between Asuka and Sasha Banks at Survivor Series
For three long weeks, Carmella has targetted Sasha Banks and made it clear that she wants a shot at that SmackDown Women's Championship. The Boss has been on the receiving end of these attacks but is yet to even address Carmella who now believes that she's untouchable.
Last night on SmackDown, Asuka stood by and watched Carmella as she once again took out the SmackDown Women's Champion and attempted to send a message. This could be the same on Sunday night at Survivor Series if Carmella finds a way to interfere in the match but it would cost SmackDown a vital victory.
#5. The winner of the dual-brand battle royal is handed a Championship shot
The dual-brand battle royal has been added to the show at Survivor Series because there was an even number of matches and the pay-per-view could have ended in a draw. At present no names have been announced for the match that will be on the Kickoff Show, but it's nice to see that battle royals can make their return to WWE TV.
At present, there is a lot of congestion in the Championship title pictures, but it could be that the winner from the dual-brand battle royal is handed a Championship shot at next month's TLC event. This could give someone like Ricochet or even Aleister Black on SmackDown a chance to climb back into focus following Survivor Series.
#4. The Miz teases another Money in the Bank cash-in at Survivor Series
The Miz was able to take the Money in the Bank briefcase from Otis back at Hell in a Cell after he bribed 'judge' JBL into making the match about the contract for a shot at the World Championship.
Whilst there are reportedly no plans for The Miz to cash in his contract anytime soon, nothing is stopping The A-Lister from teasing a cash-in after the main event at Survivor Series.
Roman Reigns and Drew McIntyre are preparing to go to war and if it's Reigns who comes out on top then McIntyre would be ripe for The Miz to run in and cash-in his contract. Even a tease from The Miz would definitely be needed since Mr. Money in the Bank isn't even on the card at Survivor Series.
#3. Lana will be the sole survivor for her team at Survivor Series
The RAW Women's team was announced a few weeks ago on the Red brand, but whilst the Women's Tag Team Champions didn't have to qualify to be part of the team, Lana did. The Ravishing Russian was able to prove her doubters wrong but has gotten on the wrong side of Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler in recent weeks.
Lana will likely be put through a table at some point at Survivor Series, but still, find a way to push through and be the sole survivor for her team. WWE has been building Lana for something over the past month and it has to be part of Sunday night's show.
#2. Team RAW implodes at Survivor Series
The men's RAW Survivor Series team has had a number of issues in recent weeks which stem from the fact that AJ Styles wants to be the captain. All other stars in the match are against this and his bodyguard is seemingly the only reason why the likes of Riddle, Sheamus, Keith Lee, and Braun Strowman are not making their point clearer.
Styles has an interesting new character but the fact that he has become somewhat controlling in recent weeks could be the reason why Team RAW is unable to pick up the elimination match win at Survivor Series.
#1. The Fiend will be part of The Undertaker's Final Farewell at Survivor Series
The Undertaker will be in attendance at Survivor Series on Sunday night and he will seemingly say goodbye to the company in the same place where he made his debut. It's been a three-decade-long career that's definitely worth celebrating, but as with everything in WWE, it's unlikely that it will go without a hitch.
The Deadman himself has stated that he would love to wrestle The Fiend and Bray Wyatt's alter-ego has made it clear that The Undertaker hasn't beaten everyone in his path just yet, despite him already retiring from the business.
Whilst it's unclear if there will be any kind of match between the two men in the future, it's likely that there will definitely be some kind of showdown between The Fiend and The Undertaker.
The Final Farewell is one of the most hotly anticipated parts of this year's Survivor Series and The Undertaker wouldn't be happy taking his final bow in WWE if it didn't all end in controversy.
