Expect the unexpected at Crown Jewel 2021 because it's the final pitstop before the two rosters are set in stone. What this means is that the pieces on the chessboard are bound to be shuffled one last time.
Betrayals! They are an essential theme of every single television drama, so why should pro wrestling be any different? The best way to ensure that people tune in to watch SmackDown and RAW after Crown Jewel 2021 would be with broken allegiances, shifted loyalties, and new friendships.
With that said, let's examine 5 superstars who could unexpectedly find a knife in their back come Crown Jewel 2021. Do not hesitate to share your thoughts and views in the comments below.
#5 At Crown Jewel 2021 this week, Paul Heyman chooses a new bestial chief
The biggest question going into Crown Jewel 2021 is whether Paul Heyman is going to side with his former client Brock Lesnar or not. Let us just examine the facts for a second. Brock Lesnar is not the most competent promo on the roster except when he's speaking in short bursts.
He could benefit from having Paul Heyman by his side. Roman Reigns has grown as a promo in recent times and does not need his 'wise man' as much.
So a screwjob bigger than Montreal could happen at Crown Jewel 2021 where Paul Heyman decides to side with The Beast Incarnate over his Tribal Chief. This sets the stage for one or two more big-ticket matches at some point down the line. We know that in 2021, it's not going to get any bigger than Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship.
Such a massive betrayal would surely shake up the roster in a big way!
#4 The New Day turns heel before moving to SmackDown
One of Crown Jewel 2021's most highly-anticipated matches will see WWE Champion Big E step into the ring with the Scottish Warrior Drew McIntyre. It's also the last time we see The New Day and Big E on the same brand for a while. That said, could it be the last stand for the group as a collective unit? At Crown Jewel 2021, could The New Day turn heel and cost Big E his big match?
#3 Omos attacks AJ Styles at Crown Jewel 2021 for not getting the job done
There are plenty of opponents on the WWE RAW brand for the current Champions, Randy Orton and Riddle. Also, leading up to Crown Jewel 2021, we've seen how Omos has been involved in singles competition proving that he doesn't need Styles' help!
What if AJ Styles takes the pin during the upcoming match at Crown Jewel 2021 leading to Omos absolutely losing his mind? It could lead to the big man turning on his partner, allowing Styles to go solo once again.
#2 The Usos turn on Roman Reigns at Crown Jewel 2021
Why could The Usos pull off the ultimate Crown Jewel 2021 swerve with their cousin Roman Reigns? The simple answer is because if you look at the two rosters following the draft, RAW is far more loaded than SmackDown. Roman Reigns has nobody to face except for maybe Drew McIntyre.
We've seen Jey Uso take Reigns to the limit before. Could Jimmy Uso join the fray as well, competing in the Universal Championship picture? The Bloodline could cease to be after Crown Jewel 2021 this week.
#1 Veer turns on Jinder Mahal before going to another brand
We are aware that Veer and Jinder/Shanky will be on different brands after Crown Jewel 2021. Let's assume for a minute that Jinder Mahal will make it to the finals of the tournament. If so, could we see Veer costing him the match before splitting off to do his own thing? This sets up an encounter somewhere down the line between the two men.
