8 Last-Minute Predictions For WWE Clash Of Champions 2017

2. Daniel Bryan Turns Heel

Daniel Bryan, all things considered, seems a far safer bet for a Clash of Champions heel turn, even though is far less at home wearing the colours of evil than Randy Orton - go figure.

This makes more sense though, and not just because - Bryan having officiating powers on Sunday - he's actually in a far better position to influence the outcome of the match than any one of its competitors.

There's also motive. We've been hearing murmurs for months that the SmackDown GM is trying and failing to convince his employers to let him get back in the ring, a real-life story out of which you imagine WWE would be only too pleased to fashion a new on-screen angle.

Owens and Zayn got inside Bryan's head a few weeks ago with the suggestion that he had sold out (whatever exactly that's supposed to mean) and, in the intervening time, there's a good chance he's decided that the best way to salvage his career is to join up with his fellow ROH alumnus. Watch this space.
