WWE Survivor Series WarGames is just a day away now. The event will air live from the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, Canada tomorrow night.

With this being an international event, plus one of the biggest PLEs of the year, the company could be planning some big things for the Canadian spectacle. There could be several twists in store for fans on Saturday night, which could set the tone for the rest of the year.

On that note, here are four potential twists that could happen at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames -


#4. Braun Strowman could return as The Fiend at Survivor Series

Braun Strowman was on a hiatus ever since his Last Monster Standing Match against Bronson Reed. While the behemoth returned to the ring in a dark match a couple of weeks ago, an on-screen return is yet to happen. That said, things may change at Survivor Series.

For fans unaware, The Monster of All Monsters recently teased an alliance with Roman Reigns on social media. Given that, one potential direction could see Braun make his presence felt during the men's WarGames Match on Saturday night. However, Strowman may appear with a new character.

The Monster of All Monsters could surprise fans by returning as The Fiend in honor of the late, great Bray Wyatt. Strowman could take out the Solo Sikoa-led Bloodline, including his arch-enemy, Bronson Reed, and help the Original Bloodline pick up a huge win.


#3. Paul Heyman could betray Roman Reigns

Paul Heyman returned on the latest episode of SmackDown with the fifth member of the Original Bloodline for the WarGames Match - CM Punk. While The Wiseman reunited with The Original Tribal Chief last week, there have been murmurs of Heyman turning on Reigns at Survivor Series.

If those rumors are indeed true, fans could witness a massive twist during the men's WarGames Match. Paul Heyman could betray Roman Reigns to cost the babyfaces a potential win. Following that, The Wiseman could introduce his new client. More on this in the next point.


#2. The Rock could return

It was rumored earlier that Paul Heyman could return with a new client, possibly The Rock. While that didn't happen, things may change at Survivor Series as Paul Heyman could betray Roman Reigns for none other than The Rock.

Given The Final Boss' stature and power in the company, plus the recent fall of Roman Reigns, which saw him lose his title, Heyman could decide to side with the High Chief. The Rock could be revealed as the mastermind behind Solo Sikoa's uprising, before replacing The Street Champion as the leader of The Bloodline.


#1. Roman Reigns could replace Sami Zayn with Cody Rhodes at Survivor Series

Roman Reigns' Original Bloodline will take on Solo Sikoa's new Bloodline in the men's WarGames Match on Saturday. However, the heels could look to weaken the babyfaces by taking out one of their members, possibly Sami Zayn, right before the encounter.

The Solo-led faction could attack The Honorary Uce backstage, injuring him in the process. This potential angle could lead Roman Reigns to replace Zayn with former AEW star, Cody Rhodes. While The American Nightmare is currently not scheduled for Survivor Series, The OTC could call Rhodes for help at the eleventh hour.

Rhodes joining forces with Punk and Reigns would indeed be best for business. Moreover, this angle would also help progress the rivalry between Rock and Rhodes, if The Final Boss does return at the event.
