6) Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar Lasts Only A Few Minutes
WWE has set us up for another clash between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar for the WWE Universal Championship. This is the likely match that will main event the show.
With Brock looking like he’s heading to the UFC, could we see this match last only a minute or two? Brock probably doesn’t want to get injured before he fights for big money in the UFC. Fans have also already seen Brock vs Roman a couple of times and will probably crap on the match anyways.
Maybe WWE has Reigns squash Lesnar, similar to what happened a few years ago with Goldberg. It would certainly be a surprise but I don’t see it as being impossible.
5) Charlotte Flair Turns On Becky Lynch
Carmella will be defending her Smackdown Women’s Championship against Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair at Summerslam. Over the past few weeks, WWE has been teasing some future conflict between Becky and Charlotte on Smackdown Live.
A popular theory making the rounds is that Charlotte Flair could end up turning heel at Summerslam. This would be after Becky wins the Women’s Championship. The two would embrace in the ring before Charlotte attacks her best friend.
The idea would be to set up a Charlotte vs Becky feud for the next few months on Smackdown Live. While saying that, this would kill the chances in the short-term for any Four Horsewomen vs Four Horsewomen match that is currently rumored for Survivor Series. I would be a bit surprised to see a turn here but it could be a fun way to go.
4) Becky Lynch Turns On Charlotte Flair
Another possibility is that it won’t be Charlotte Flair turning heel at Summerslam, it could actually be Becky Lynch.
The storyline is pretty easy to write. Becky is pissed off at Charlotte for always being handed things. She was added to the Smackdown Women’s Championship match after Becky had to scratch and claw for several weeks to earn her place. If Charlotte wins the Title on Sunday, it could be enough for Becky to finally snap and attack her.
A heel Becky Lynch would be interesting as we haven’t seen it in WWE. This would be a major surprise because I am not sure anybody would be expecting a heel turn from Becky. Would it be the right decision? I don’t know. It would certainly make things interesting though.
