WWE Survivor Series 2018: 5 last-minute predictions

#3 Betrayal in the main event

Well, needless to say, this kind of ties in with the last point for me.

Let's take you on a little trip here. I think WWE are positioning us for a face Miz vs heel Daniel Bryan feud leading up to WrestleMania where we see Miz and Asuka win the MMC, with The A-Lister winning the Royal Rumble and taking on Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

I think that all starts here. With The Miz being replaced by Shane McMahon in the WWE World Cup at Crown Jewel, the seeds have been planted - not to mention Miz captaining Team SmackDown going into Survivor Series and Shane O'Mac already trying to undermine the former Intercontinental Champion in the build up.

I think we get somewhat of a double turn in the main event, with the "Best in the World" Shane McMahon disagreeing with Miz's tactics and ambushing him, either before the match, during or after, to cement his place as a heel - setting up some interesting television where he and Paige play good cop/bad cop on TV, and Miz garners sympathy, establishing him as a fan favourite for his inevitable resurrected rivalry against the WWE Champion.

I mean, Shane's in front of his team captain on the poster. Figure that one out...

Could this be foreshadowing division in Team SmackDown?
