10. A 12-Man GM Challenge Match

The multi-man melees may well continue with a good-hearted battle between the General Managers of RAW and SmackDown Live. Unfortunately that doesn't mean we'll be getting Kurt Angle vs. Daniel Bryan - more likely would be a 12-man tag featuring six men from both brands.

With Angle and Bryan both positioned as fair GMs going forward, the two teams can be expected to include a mix of faces and heels who all earned their way into the match. It is also another way of getting good talent onto the card, and the GM element potentially kicks off stories for the winter.

Kurt Angle's team will be made up of The Revival, Big Cass, Sheamus, Luke Harper and The Miz. On the blue team we can expect to see American Alpha, Baron Corbin, Cesaro, Tye Dillinger and Mojo Rawley.

Such a position represents a disappointment for men like Cesaro and The Miz, but WWE has disappointed fans of those guys on so many occasions - why stop now?
