WWE TLC 2020 could be a show filled with surprises
WWE TLC 2020 could be a show filled with surprises

WWE TLC 2020 comes at a very weird time when RAW viewership has reached record lows and the audience's overall interest in the product is almost minimal.

One has to believe that as we approach the road to WrestleMania, Vince McMahon will bring the big guns out, and this could certainly begin at WWE TLC 2020, in light of the poor viewership numbers.

These are 5 surprises that could certainly happen at WWE TLC 2020, in our estimation, and if you believe we've missed out on one or two obvious twists, do let us know in the comments section below.

Without wasting any more time, let's dive into the heart of the matter right away.


#5 Goldberg returns at WWE TLC 2020 to destroy Roman Reigns

WWE is not even trying to conceal the fact that big plans for a Goldberg vs. Roman Reigns match are in the works, especially if you look at their social media and the back and forth comments between Goldberg and The Tribal Chief.

These are the exact words from Goldberg from a recent interview with Bleacher Report:

If the Roman Reigns match isn't the match at the top of my priority list, then I wouldn't be Goldberg. That's a match that needs to happen. It's a match that's needed to happen for a very long period of time. I wish I would've been able to have that match 10 years ago.

While the audience interest is still red-hot, Goldberg could return at WWE TLC 2020, and even the odds for Kevin Owens against Roman Reigns. We know that Jey Uso will be in the ringside area to help Roman Reigns out, and so he will need someone like Goldberg to even the odds, and stand a chance.

#4 Bayley shows up at WWE TLC 2020 to team up with Asuka

We know that Lana will be missing WWE TLC 2020 after she was written off from the pay-per-view owing to a storyline injury. Also, what we also know is that a mystery partner will team up with Asuka at WWE TLC 2020, and rumors indicate that it could indeed be Charlotte Flair.

However, another name comes to mind as a possible partner for Asuka and her name is Bayley. Could Bayley have won her big match on SmackDown this week, so that she looks strong heading into WWE TLC 2020, and eventually moves over to the RAW brand?

Bayley is obviously going to be out of the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship picture for a while, and Asuka needs strong opponents to face on RAW.

Every time the viewership dwindles, the idea of the brand split is diminished, which is why Bayley could certainly move over to the RAW brand, to bolster the WWE RAW Women's Division. And yes, at WWE TLC 2020, she could certainly turn on Asuka.

#3 At WWE TLC 2020, Omos retrieves the WWE Championship without a ladder and hands it to AJ Styles

The nature of a TLC match is such that one has to use a ladder to lay his/her hands on the title and, thus, pick up the win. But at WWE TLC 2020, AJ Styles' massive associate, Omos, may have a trick up his sleeve to give Styles the upper hand.

Could AJ Styles balance on his broad shoulders, and win the Championship without having to use a ladder? It would certainly be a crazy visual coming out of WWE TLC 2020, and could generally set the tone for Omos' involvement in future encounters with AJ Styles.

A situation could exist at WWE TLC 2020, where there are no ladders in the ringside area where Omos steps in and offers his extremely radical solution to help his associate win. Maybe, in this manner, Big Omos' transition from an imposing character who stands on the outside to an actual in-ring competitor could happen in the smoothest manner.

#2 Billie Kay helps Carmella become the SmackDown Women's Champion at WWE TLC 2020

Speaking of associations, Billie Kay has been offering her CV to all and sundry, and also forming associations with everyone that agrees to tag with her from the SmackDown roster. At WWE TLC 2020, she may just decide that she wants to align with Carmella and as a result, she could help Carmella become the SmackDown Women's Champion. It would be a genuine twist, and it would also be one that shakes up the women's division quite significantly, following WWE TLC 2020.

There are many fans of Billie Kay's new character, but nobody seems to be able to figure out exactly where she can go from here.

Starting from WWE TLC 2020, Carmella and Billie Kay can form a similar sort of association as Dr. Britt Baker and Rebel in All Elite Wrestling. It would definitely be the biggest angle that Billie Kay has been involved in since splitting up with Peyton Royce in what was a very unpopular move indeed.

#1 Sheamus attacks Drew McIntyre at WWE TLC 2020, and then, The Miz cashes in

The Drew McIntyre and Sheamus friendship has been set up in such a manner, that it seems almost like a certainty that Sheamus will turn on McIntyre at WWE TLC 2020.

Is it possible that Sheamus costs Drew McIntyre the title at WWE TLC 2020, considering that viewership numbers have sunk to record lows in the era when he's held the WWE Championship? While it may certainly not be his fault, Drew McIntyre's reign has been marred by no fans in the arena, and WWE may take a drastic step to change this.

Could Sheamus' Brogue Kick be the setup for The Miz to show up, out of nowhere, and then climb the ladder to become the next WWE Champion? If he does, maybe it would set up a feud where an unlikely challenger like Riddle or even Jeff Hardy could be fast-tracked to the WWE Championship.

We know that Vince McMahon is high on Riddle, so this could certainly happen. In conclusion, do check out our official WWE TLC 2020 preview with Denise and Jon Alba by clicking on the link shared right above.
