Who will win this mammoth clash?
Who will win this mammoth clash?

After a mostly successful Royal Rumble 2020, WWE is back to the kingdom of Saudi Arabia for yet another grand PPV, WWE Super ShowDown 2020. Much like all the previous shows in the country, the card for Super ShowDown is filled with some major names who are sure to help the company keep their Saudi fans happy.

WWE Super ShowDown, unlike its previous editions, takes place at a very important time on the WWE calendar, less than 40 days away from the Grandest Stage of them All. With there being another PPV in the form of Elimination Chamber on the Road to WrestleMania, every single decision could have an impact on the card.

As of the writing of this article, seven matches have been announced for the show, with probably a couple more to be added later. So without further adieu, I present to you my full match-card predictions for WWE Super ShowDown 2020.

Be sure to comment down your own predictions below, whether they match with mine or not. Are you excited for the latest WWE Saudi Arabia mega show?


#7 The New Day (c) vs The Miz and John Morrison - SmackDown Tag Team Championship

Will we see new Tag Champs at Super Show-Down?
Will we see new Tag Champs at Super Show-Down?

The reunion of The Miz and John Morrison has brought new energy to SmackDown's Tag Team division. After trading insults with The New Day for over a month, the two are finally set to challenge the champions for their Tag Titles at WWE Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia.

With the New Day hinting at yet another feud with The Usos for the titles, there are huge chances of this leading to a massive 3-way Tag Match at WrestleMania 36. No doubt, the match has the potential to steal the show.

For that to happen, the New Day could retain their titles at Super ShowDown, only for the other two teams to demand a shot at the title - ultimately leading to a 3-way (Ladder?) match. Even though WWE can book the same match with Miz and Morrison as the champions, I'll pick the New Day to retain here.

Predictions: The New Day retains their titles

#6 Seth Rollins and Murphy (c) vs The Street Profits - RAW Tag Team

Championship

On the RAW side of the Tag Team division, sitting on top of the mountain is the team of Seth Rollins and Murphy. The Monday Night Messiah and his faction have turned into a massive deal on the Red brand, even dethroning the Viking Raiders as the Tag Team Champions.

Unfortunately, having them as the champion has badly hurt Akam and Rezar who are a genuine tag-team and need the title and spotlight much more than these two. With that in mind, I'm predicting the champs to lose their titles at Super ShowDown to the Street Profits. The Authors of Pain can then go behind the titles, while Rollins and Murphy can focus on Kevin Owens and Samoa Joe.

Predictions: The Street Profits become the new RAW Tag Team Champions


#5 AJ Styles vs. Andrade vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Erick Rowan vs. R-Truth vs. Rusev - Gauntlet match for the Tuwaiq Trophy

The previous editions of Saudi Arabia shows have seen many gimmick matches take place to entertain the crowd, like the Greatest Royal Rumble, the 50-man Battle Royal, and the WWE World Cup. This year, the company is back with yet another gimmick match as the above six contestants will take on each other in a 6-man Gauntlet match for the Tuwaiq Trophy.

While we have no clue of the criteria of selection for these men, the clear favorite to win the match on paper is the Phenomenal One, AJ Styles. With the rumors of him taking on The Undertaker at WrestleMania 36, this victory could help provide some much-needed momentum to Styles.

While there's a slight chance of either Rusev or Bobby Lashley winning it, my pick would be the new Mr. WrestleMania.

Predictions: AJ Styles wins the Tuwaiq Trophy

#4 Bayley (c) vs Naomi - SmackDown Women's Championship

The last time WWE came to the Middle East, history was made as Natalya and Lacey Evans became the first female Superstars to have a match in Saudi Arabia. Continuing the trend, WWE is set to have yet another female match on the show this time as well with Bayley defending her SmackDown Women's Championship against Naomi.

With Naomi reminding Bayley that she has never lost to her, the trend tells us that it is highly unlikely for her to defeat Bayley at Super ShowDown. WWE Universe is highly excited to see the eventual turn of Sasha Banks on Bayley, leading to a match between the two at WrestleMania 36. For that to happen, the former Hugger needs to hold on to her title here.

Predictions: Bayley retains


#3 Brock Lesnar (c) vs Ricochet - WWE Championship

Watch out for this match!
Watch out for this match!

Not in my wildest dreams would I have expected Brock Lesnar defend his WWE Championship against Ricochet. Nothing to take away from the One and Only, who deserves all the limelight he's getting, but the match-up is certainly very interesting.

Let's be honest, the chances of Ricochet defeating the Beast Incarnate and becoming the WWE Champion are close to zero. But the match can go in two ways - either Lesnar badly squashes Ricochet in a couple of minutes or we get a 10-15 minute amazing match from the two with Ricochet's high-flying moves perfectly complementing the sheer strength of Lesnar. Let's hope it's the latter one!

Predictions: Brock Lesnar retains

#2 Roman Reigns vs King Corbin - Steel Cage Match

Hopefully, the last match we'll see between these two for a long while, Roman Reigns is set to take on King Corbin in a Steel Cage match. After a long storyline spanning for several months, it's safe to assume that the WWE Universe wants this feud to end at Super ShowDown.

With the rumors of Roman Reigns getting inserted into the Universal Championship picture at WrestleMania 36, it is no brainer that he will end up victorious unless WWE has some major surprises in the box.

Predictions: Roman Reigns wins


#1 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt (c) vs Goldberg - Universal Championship

One of the most anticipated matches on the show and a "Dream" encounter in many sense, 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt is set to defend his Universal Championship against one of the most dominant Superstars in the history of the company, Goldberg.

The go-home show of SmackDown saw Goldberg unaffected from Wyatt's mind games, as he went on to spear The Fiend and forced him to retreat.

While one can never be sure, until the match ends, the signs point towards The Fiend ending up victorious in this encounter.

According to rumors, Goldberg is more than happy to take a pin for Wyatt and a victory over him is sure to give some massive momentum to The Fiend before WrestleMania. A loss, on the other hand, would take away all the momentum of the character, something which won't be a sensible decision.

Predictions: 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt retains
