Nightmare: After dominating in the titular ladder match and winning the briefcase at Money In The Bank, Braun Strowman is up-ended in a surprise by Kevin Owens. Afterwards, KO would scurry away clutching the case as Braun tried to comprehend losing his guaranteed Universal Title shot a mere two months after securing it.

Chances Of It Coming True: Not high, and yet not impossible either.

There's been a weird discord to the Strowman vs. Owens feud to date. Despite being the clear babyface going into the rivalry, Braun has appeared as a schoolyard bully who enjoys making KO's life miserable. For his part, Owens just wants to provide for his family, and that's actually an admirable trait for someone who's supposed to be heel.

It wouldn't be outlandish to predict an Owens win so WWE can shake up the Universal Title scene. They can always book Braun to win it back again if GM Kurt Angle deems Kevin's win unfair. Right now, anything that keeps Strowman busy is good by WWE, it seems.
