SummerSlam 2018 is fast approaching us. Many of the matches have been decided and feuds have started to progress further. The match card right now has some very exciting matches to witness. We have got Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar lined up, whereas AJ Styles is going to defend the WWE Championship against Samoa Joe.
Follow Sportskeeda for the latest WWE news, rumors and all other wrestling news.
There is going to be a triple threat between Charlotte, Becky Lynch and Carmella for the Smackdown Women's Championship & Ronda Rousey is challenging Alexa Bliss for the Raw Women's Championship. Cedric Alexander will defend the Cruiserweight Championship.
There is a tag-team tournament held for determining the no.1 contenders for SD Tag Team Championship. And the Raw Tag Team Titles maybe defended against The Revival and The Deleters Of Worlds in a triple threat.
Another match confirmed is Kevin Owens vs. Braun Strowman in which Strowman has put his Money In The Bank Briefcase on the line. Predictions have started from everywhere and thus we will look at three predictions which are unlikely to happen, but if they happen they are surely going to shock everyone.
#3 Carmella retains the SD Women's Title
Becky Lynch defeated Carmella in a singles match to become the no.1 contender for the SD Women's Championship. This week, on Smackdown she was attacked by Carmella and a returning Charlotte Flair saved her friend.
Following that, Charlotte defeated Carmella in a singles match and she too was added to the title match at Summer Slam 2018. Charlotte and Becky are both very talented in-ring performers, but Carmella isn't one of them.
So it is easy to predict that either Lynch or Flair would take the title home. Also later this year, WWE is going to have an All Women's PPV named 'Evolution'. WWE would not want a wrestler like Carmella to main-event such a showcasing of the Women's Revolution. They would surely like to take the Championship of her.
But, is Carmella is given a chance and she pulls off an upset victory at SummerSlam, it would surely be as shocking as it is unlikely. But that still remains a possibility as WWE has a habit to do unexpected things.
#2 Finn Balor revives The Demon King
Finn Balor's Demon King persona is at a whole new level. He just has a lot of charisma and amazing gimmick play ability when he is the Demon King.
He became the first ever Universal Champion at SummerSlam 2016 as The Demon King. He faced Bray Wyatt as The Demon King at SummerSlam 2017.
But the last time he used this gimmick was at TLC 2017 PPV against AJ Styles. After that he has lost his momentum and never brought The Demon King back. Every time Balor competed at SummerSlam, he has been in the dark persona. This year's SummerSlam is not far away.
And Balor doesn't have any feud right now. So it is possible that when he gets into a proper feud, he may appear as The Demon King at SummerSlam 2018.
This scenario seems less possible because Vince McMahon doesn't look up to Balor as a major star without The Demon Gimmick.
If Vince has planned for Balor to pick up a win at SummerSlam, he may let him become The Demon King again. It would be great if we get to see him back at SummerSlam 2018.
#1 Kevin Owens leaves as Universal Champion
Kevin Owens is the second ever Universal Champion. He lost the championship to Goldberg last year. He never got his rematch against him.
But this Summerslam, he has a chance to win it back. As he is going to face the Mr. Money In The Bank 2018 Braun Strowman. The Money In The Bank contract is on the line in that match.
If Owens somehow manages to pick up a victory over Strowman, he will win the contract. Even if the Monster Among Men loses by disqualification or count out, he loses the contract.
Owens can win the contract and cash it in on the same night after or during the Lesnar-Reigns match. Just the correct timing will lead to him becoming the Universal Champion. And it would surely be shocking.
