8 WWE Survivor Series 2018 Nightmares That Could Come True

8. Fans Yawn Through An All-Heel Tag Title Battle

Nightmare: It's hardly ideal that Drake Maverick's AOP troops will saunter into a lukewarm heel vs. heel match against The Bar at Survivor Series. Sheamus and Cesaro have just been given an injection of life themselves on SmackDown, so it's not the best scenario for them either. This, sadly, might be a chance for fans in LA to empty their bladders.

Chances Of It Coming True: It's nice to see AOP finally get some main roster recognition from the bookers. The NXT standouts have had to jump through hoops before earning their corn on Raw. Now they're the Raw Tag Champs, everything should be fine and dandy, but it won't be if fans don't care a hoot for their first post-title win pay-per-view appearance.

WWE are booking themselves into a corner here, and needlessly so. This incessant drive to have brand vs. brand only works when there's an issue of interest or some sort of dream match behind it. That's not the case here, and it could cause creative to go cold on AOP before they really get started.
