7 Biggest WWE SummerSlam 2019 Surprises That Might Happen

6. Ricochet Wins

Less a prediction of what will happen, and more a potentially shocking moment. With The OC getting such a significant push, this outcome seems more and more unlikely. Heels in groups tend to win over a strong face opponent more often than not, and the trend points this way as well.

With each member of The OC now holding gold though, this could be an opportunity to go another direction entirely.

With Ricochet clearly being a piece of WWE’s foreseeable future, this could be a huge win to fast-forward his push. Having him overcome the odds of Anderson and Gallows getting involved, having a war with AJ, and then finally reclaiming the title would be a huge step forward in his career. With the plans to have Ricochet originally part of the DX angle at Raw Reunion derailed due to injury, the United States title may have been a detour all along as well.

Whichever way this goes, this match should be one of the highlights of the night; we all know they have it in them. It should give everyone involved a good boost, if given the proper time to do so. Let’s all hope we get a similar contest to Rollins and Styles at Money in The Bank out of The Phenomenal One. We all know that both competitors are a great match waiting to happen, after all; their résumés speaks for themselves.

Let us hope at SummerSlam the wait will be over.
