WWE Survivor Series 2019: 9 Last-Minute Rumours You Need To Know

1. Kevin Owens Defects To NXT

Yeah, they just seemed to leave this little narrative thread hanging, didn't they? Triple H attempted to talk Kevin Owens into rejoining his flock down in Florida, only for a mass brawl to interrupt his answer. Given how precious TV time has become trying to fit in all the necessary build, it's unlikely this was just a throwaway segment.

Owens has long been rumoured to be The Guy that NXT wanted back from the main roster. So much so the scale of Finn Bálor's surprise reveal was fuelled simply by the fact that he wasn't KO. Still though, the talk has persisted and Monday Night Raw's in-ring segment has served only to further fan the flames.

The fact that NXT's men's team for the 5-on-5-on-5 is still yet to be announced, and Team Ciampa is still missing a member for their WarGames match, serves as logical jumping off (or, well, in) points for this defection, with Owens' last of opportunities on the main roster being the perfect breeding ground for NXT getting another top star.

Unveiling him on Saturday would have everybody tuning in Sunday.
