10 HUGE Leaked Surprises WWE Still Have Planned for 2020
10: Dominik Mysterio sides with Seth Rollins
Ever since Seth Rollins took Rey Mysterio out in their gruelling eye-for-an-eey match, the
Monday Night Messiah has turned his attention to Rey’s son Dominik.
On RAW, Dominik has been able to survive against Rollins and his disciple Murphy, and whilst some
sort of match that’d see Rollins and Dominik on opposite ends of the ring has been rumoured, that’s
not the only big leak.
According to reports, there are plans after a match between the two, that’d see Rollins eventually
coax the young up-and-comer into joining his side.
This partnership would culminate in Rollins and Dominik capturing the RAW Tag Team
Championships in early Fall, ending the reign of the Street Profits that began back on the
March 2nd RAW.
Like many tag-teams though, their partnership would end with Dominik turning on Rollins,
their feud, which would hopefully be a way to bring Rey Mysterio back to TV, to fight alongside his
son.
9: Keith Lee wins another top title
There’s few Superstars who have had a better 2020 than Keith Lee, as he’s captured the North
American and NXT Titles this year, but that’s not it for the Limitless
One.
Reports are stating that Vince McMahon is a huge fan of Lee, and that there are calls for him to be
moved to the main roster very soon, in a truly shocking moment.
According to rumours, Lee will debut by confronting either the WWE or Universal Champion,
which would result in Lee winning his debut match as well as whichever title he challenged for.
Like what happened with Lee and the North American title, this win would see the Limitless One
vacating the NXT Title, so he could focus his attention on being a main-roster main-eventer.
It’s no secret that a good debut from NXT is a must, otherwise you’ll end up like The Ascension-Ed or
EC3, and winning the World title in his first match would certainly be an impressive way for Lee’s
main-roster run to begin.
8: Christian returns at Summerslam
Fans already know that WWE Champion Drew McIntyre will defend his gold against Randy Orton
Summerslam, but what fans aren’t aware of is who the third man in the match will be
Despite rumours of Orton ending McIntyre’s reign at the Biggest Party of the Summer, there’s a
rumour circulating that Christian will mark his WWE return at the show, costing the Legend Killer
chance at being a 14-time WWE World Champion.
This would, of course, be revenge by Captain Charisma for what Orton and Ric Flair did to him on
RAW in June, and would lead to a Pay Per View match between the two down the line, where
Orton would end Christian’s career for good.
With Captain Charisma out of the picture, Orton would turn his attention to the WWE Title once
again, resulting in him winning the title in early 2021
There’s already been rumours of an Edge-Orton match at WrestleMania 37, as well as
rumours that Vince McMahon wants to give the Hall of Famer a final title reign, and if so, this plan
could all start with Christian’s return this month.
7: Sasha Banks turns on Bayley
With Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair away from the ring, the WWE’s Women’s division has been
dominated by Sasha Banka and Bayley.
Not only are the duo the reigning Women’s Tag Team Champions, but Banks recently captured the
RAW Women’s Championship, whilst Bayley is continuing her reign as the longest-reigning
SmackDown Women’s Champion.
According to rumours though, the former Hugger’s reign will soon be coming to an end, reportedly
at the hands of her own best friend.
Fans have been expecting the two to turn on each-other for a while, and now it seems that Banks
will become the second woman in history to hold both the RAW and SmackDown Women’s titles
simultaneously.
It’s been previously reported that a Bayley Vs. Sasha feud was planned for WrestleMania, though
it ultimately never happened, and now fans can expect the two friends to feud very soon, with Banks
confirming her status as the Boss of the Women’s Division.
6: Bobby Lashley becomes United States Champion
When MVP re-signed with WWE earlier this year, it was originally to work as a producer and very
occasionally on-screen, but that’s obviously changed, as Porter is now on the red brand each week,
and has been placed in the United States title picture.
According to rumours though, Vince McMahon is more interested in Bobby Lashley, and though he
came up short in his pursuit of the WWE title, the Almighty will be winning the United States title
later this year.
This will mark Lashley’s first reign as U.S. Champion since 2006, and could always lead to Lashley
coming back to challenging for the WWE Title when he’s finished with the Star-Spangled strap.
It’s unclear what this would mean for MVP’s Hurt Business, as Shelton Benjamin recently
became a member of the group, but whatever the case may be, fans can expect Lashley to hold the United
States Championship in the not so distant future, no matter who he has to beat to get it.
5: Big E becomes Universal Champion
With his strength, promo skills and charisma, Big E has always had the making of a World Champion,
but has for the past 6 years been seen as a tag-team star thanks to his alignment with the New Day.
But with both Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston on the shelf, the powerhouse is reportedly set to
receive a major singles push, which will reportedly culminate in him challenging for the Universal
Championship.
Following the success of KofiMania last year, its being rumoured that Big E will win the title down
the line, either from Braun Strowman or Bray Wyatt, and until he does, an Intercontinental title
reign is also rumoured for him.
This would mean that AJ Styles’ reign with the gold could be coming to an end relatively soon, and
whilst Big E, as well as his New Day-brethren have said they never plan on splitting the group up,
Big E Universal title reign would definitely be interesting to see.
4: Matt Riddle finally gets his match against Brock Lesnar
Ever since his call-up to the main roster earlier this year, Matt Riddle has impressed as a SmackDown
Superstar, but his one-true-goal in WWE remains the same as always.
It’s no secret that the King of Bros wants to face Brock Lesnar at some point in his career,
and according to reports, Riddle may finally get the chance later this years.
It’s being rumoured that Vince McMahon has been so impressed by the Original Bro that he’s willing
to grant Riddle’s request, though this may be a ‘careful what you wish for’ situation for him.
After all, this rumoured match with Lesnar would probably be Brock’ first match back since
WrestleMania, so it’s unlikely that the Beast would come back to lose to someone who he
reportedly has very-real beef with, even telling Riddle that they’d never work together during a
backstage confrontation at the Royal Rumble.
Even if Riddle is booked to be the Beast Incarnate’s next victim, we doubt the King of Bros would be
too upset, as he’s been wanting a shot at Lesnar in the ring for years, and may finally get his wish in
the coming months.
3: Ronda Rousey returns
It’s been over a year since fans saw Ronda Rousey in a WWE ring, but after plenty of reports about
the Baddest Woman on the Planet, it seems that Rousey is ready to come back.
According to rumours, the WWE is planning on hosting their second all-female event, WWE
Evolution 2, this September, and with top stars like Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair out of action,
this is the perfect time to bring Rousey back.
Vince McMahon reportedly believes that with the Man and the Queen out, that Rousey’s return is a
much-needed boost to the company’s women’s division, and will help ensure that Evolution 2 is
a success.
In the past, Triple H has repeatedly said in interviews that Rousey will be back one day, and it seems
we finally know when that day will be.
Whilst Rousey is being rumoured for Evolution 2, there’s no indication what kind of match she’ll
be in, and after over a year away from the ring, a possible tag-match alongside fellow horsewoman
Shayna Baszler would help hide any ring-rust the former RAW Women’s Champion has accumulated.
2: Roman Reigns forms a new Shield
Although Roman Reigns has been absent from WWE TV since WrestleMania, there’s never been
any questions about whether the Big Dog would return to TV.
We all know that Reigns will eventually return, and according to reports, that could be very soon,
and that’s not the only big surprise the company has in store.
A new report has suggested that not only will Reigns be returning to WWE as a heel, but he will also
be returning with the Authors of Pain,who have been away from TV for quite so me time.
Vince McMahon has reportedly asked Roman to get in the best shape of his life, which explains the
recent photos the Big Dog uploaded of an even-more incredible physique, as the Chairman wants
Roman to be something akin to a full-time Brock Lesnar.
It’s been over 6 years since Reigns was a heel in WWE, and with many fans still hating on the Big
Dog for the years where WWE pushed him over other more naturally beloved Superstars, it looks
like Reigns is ready to show a new side to his character, with the AOP.
1: The Rock returns
It’s been over 4 years since The Rock’s last official match with WWE, where he beat Erick Rowan in
seconds, and unsurprisingly, nobody wants the Brahma Bull’s career to end this way.
Now, reports are suggesting that the Great One will be back this year to build towards a match, and
that he’ll face-off against his own cousin Roman Reigns.
With plans for the Big Dog to return as a heel, this would give a reason for The Rock to return as a
face, reportedly in the winter of 2020.
The Great One’s return and feud would culminate in the two Samoans locking horns at
WrestleMania 37, in a match that could easily headline the biggest show of the year.
With WWE’s ratings dwindling at the moment, partly due to a lack of star-power, WWE needs some
big names to help bring their figures back up, and having a heel Reigns and the Rock return would
certainly give fans a reason to tune in.
