Could John Cena return during the course of the show?
Could John Cena return during the course of the show?

Yes, this episode of WWE SmackDown is one where fans will be back in the arena once again! It's likely to be a very emotional event where fans remind us why they are indeed the heart and soul of sports entertainment.

If there aren't a whole bunch of surprises on WWE SmackDown, it won't live up to the expectations of fans. Luckily WWE is likely to load up on surprises galore, as the tweet below seems to suggest:

If your creative juices are flowing and you have a few surprises in mind, do not refrain from voicing them out below. Here are 5 possible surprises that we think may happen on WWE SmackDown this week:


#5 Down on his luck, King Corbin finds a new WWE SmackDown ally

King Corbin is not a king anymore. Baron Corbin has no money, no luck, and well, no entrance music either. One of the only ways in which he can find his footing once again is if he surrounds himself with someone who has the ability to change his fortune for the better.

Enter, The Tribal Chief. As was the case with Jey Uso, Baron Corbin could be elevated to the next level if he is allied with Roman Reigns. It also allows him, in time, to turn babyface and break out of the shackles that bind him to his Tribal Chief.

Yes, it does look like WWE SmackDown star King Corbin will turn face very soon indeed, but that may not be the wisest course of action. Telling a long-term story involving the top heel in the company with him may be the only way to get the audience to like him. He was, until recently at least, the roster's most hated villain!

#4 John Cena returns to WWE SmackDown to even the odds for the faces

Could John Cena return to WWE SmackDown this very week? This report sheds light on the same.

Now, Fightful Select is reporting that he is scheduled to appear on WWE programming within the next eleven days. The report adds that the current plan for The Leader of the Cenation is to return on the July 23rd episode of Friday Night SmackDown, however, it could happen sooner than that as well.

Imagine Roman Reigns, The Usos, and King Corbin on one side on WWE SmackDown. On the other, the babyfaces are outnumbered.

And that's when John Cena's music hits!


#3 Cesaro challenges Apollo Crews

Last week on WWE SmackDown, Cesaro came up short against Seth Rollins in a Money in the Bank qualifier.

Will Cesaro slip down the ranks as a result?

The best way to keep him relevant is another title feud on WWE SmackDown, with a current Champion.

Cesaro vs. Apollo Crews, in a sense, will elevate both men. Is it finally time for Cesaro to win big?

#2 Sonya Deville helps Carmella become the WWE SmackDown Women's Champion, stunning the world

So the first WWE SmackDown episode in front of fans will see Bianca Belair defend her Championship against Carmella. It's not a hugely anticipated match yet, but there could certainly be a major surprise.

Could we see Sonya Deville, who's been missing from in-ring action for a while, influencing the outcome of the contest?

She is clearly partial towards Carmella and for her to help her favorite defeat the WWE SmackDown Women's Champion would be a really big twist.


#1 Becky Lynch returns as the final Money in the Bank 2021 entrant

Before we talk about Becky Lynch and a possible WWE SmackDown return, do check out what her fellow countryman Killian Dain told Sportskeeda Wrestling about her. He was full of praise for 'The Man', as well as Sheamus during the chat!

There's just one spot left at WWE Money in the Bank 2021. Imagine if Becky Lynch was to return to fill it. The roar of the crowd would be absolutely thunderous.
