WWE Survivor Series 2018: 10 Last-Minute Predictions

3. Daniel Bryan Beats Brock Lesnar

Prediction: Anyone worried about the health consequences if Brock Lesnar rag dolls Daniel Bryan around recklessly should look away when the bell rings. The crazy b*stard (and we mean Bryan) will probably be out to prove a point that he can bump as well as anyone. Then, he'll lie, cheat and steal his way to a shock win over Paul Heyman's 'Beast'.

Why It's Likely: If it's true that Bryan himself requested that heel turn on SmackDown, then he won't want to be booked as a sympathetic figure at Survivor Series. This could mean that he works as a cheap-shot artist who cuts off Brock's momentum time and time again with low blows or other heel tactics.

As for the predicted outcome, it's likely because of Bryan's recent crowning and alignment change. His heel character is such a departure from the lovable guy who shouted slogans like, 'Fight For Your Dreams' earlier this year, and WWE will want to mark the death of that relatable dude with a big win over someone as credible as Lesnar.
