The final episode of WWE SmackDown before Survivor Series is a packed one, not only because a RAW invasion may take place during the course of the show. In addition to the inter-brand aspect of the upcoming episode, there are multiple slots to be filled for the Survivor Series 2020 card as well.
Here are five surprises that may take place on the final episode of WWE SmackDown before Survivor Series, this weekend. These are surprises that may happen to shake the proceedings and to get us invested in the upcoming pay-per-view, that there honestly isn't a lot of buzz for.
Do share a comment or two below about surprises you might want to see on the final WWE Smackdown before Survivor Series and share your thoughts on the current list as well.
#5 Murphy asks Aalyah to marry him on WWE SmackDown this week
There are various rumors doing the rounds, based on speculation by Dave Meltzer, and also from Wrestlingnews.co, that Aalyah and Murphy may soon be part of a wedding segment on WWE SmackDown. We know how much WWE loves wedding segments and certainly, this could be the route the company takes with its WWE SmackDown programming.
So, on this week's episode could we potentially see Murphy proposing to Aalyah Mysterio and her agreeing to marry him? It would certainly make things very interesting indeed, especially if it was to happen after Murphy manages to upset Seth Rollins in their clash. It would give the feud some extra legs, until maybe Murphy reveals his true colors to Rey Mysterio and Dominik Mysterio.
WWE SmackDown needs a secondary storyline that's as strong as Roman Reigns and everything that he is doing, and this could be just what the doctor ordered.
#4 Daniel Bryan returns to confront Roman Reigns on the WWE SmackDown before Survivor Series
Daniel Bryan hasn't been seen on the WWE SmackDown brand in quite some time, ever since Jey Uso took him out in a spectacular manner when he first turned heel. Could he return on this week's show to remind Roman Reigns that Drew McIntyre is not the only opponent on the horizon for him, that there's someone in the WWE SmackDown brand hunting him down too?
Daniel Bryan has been putting almost everyone over since his return to WWE SmackDown, and because of the same reason, he deserves a run at the top of the card before he decides to step away from the ring at long last.
Could Daniel Bryan maybe join forces with Drew McIntyre to take on Roman Reigns and Jey Uso in the final episode of WWE SmackDown before Survivor Series 2020?
That would certainly be a match that many would be interested in and could set things up very nicely indeed for Survivor Series 2020 and the weeks beyond as well, following the grand event.
#3 Major title change on WWE SmackDown before Survivor Series 2020
The only kind of build ahead of Survivor Series for the WWE Intercontinental Championship vs. WWE United States Championship match has been through brief mentions during the show and on social media, as can be seen below, from the interactions between WWE SmackDown star Sami Zayn, and RAW star Bobby Lashley. And this makes one wonder if there will actually be a major title change on this week's episode of WWE SmackDown.
Could someone like Otis, who is not in the Survivor Series team climb up the ranks once again by picking up a major title on this week's episode? Could he be the man to unseat the current WWE Intercontinental Champion, Sami Zayn, and move on to Survivor Series to face Bobby Lashley in a battle of might?
There are many other contenders for this spot in the WWE SmackDown roster, but another likely Champion could be someone like Daniel Bryan if the plans are to have Kevin Owens feud with Roman Reigns next.
#2 Lana gets put through a table on WWE SmackDown as well
Lana going through the table has become such a weekly occurrence on RAW that it's something that fans now look forward to every week. When she invades the WWE SmackDown brand as part of the build to Survivor Series 2020, there is every chance that Nia Jax may turn on her and put her through the table instead. And this could be a fun little thread that carries into the Survivor Series match and offers the upper hand to the WWE SmackDown team.
Or maybe someone from the WWE SmackDown brand like Bianca Belair could take the reins from Nia Jax this one week and have Lana go through the table.
What seemed like punishment for Lana when Miro cut the promo on AEW Dynamite has pretty much become her gimmick by now and judging from the fact that she RTs clips of her going through the table, she has embraced it as well by now. She may be game for this.
#1 The entire RAW roster runs through the WWE SmackDown roster in the main event
To get you in the mood for Survivor Series, we caught up with WWE SmackDown superstar Seth Rollins who had much to say about The Undertaker and what the legendary Superstar means to Rollins as an influence. The Undertaker will bid farewell to us all at Survivor Series and the WWE SmackDown discussed the legacy of the legend with us.
But coming back to the point at hand, could the RAW roster run through WWE SmackDown in the main event, to build up to Survivor Series 2020?
Thus far, the only inter-brand element we've seen in the build to the pay-per-view was Drew McIntyre's little cameo on WWE SmackDown. It may be time to amp things up with a proper invasion so that people are keen to see which team gets the upper hand at Survivor Series.
One hopes that this surprise is a certainty because if it doesn't happen, Survivor Series may not seem like a very appealing prospect.
