5 huge swerves WWE could pull off at Super Showdown 2019

WWE Super Showdown is later today, and the show has been, interesting to say the least.

Following an epic WrestleMania, and a much-criticised Money in the Bank event, SSD is the third pay per view in the company's decade-long deal with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Much like it's predecessors the Greatest Royal Rumble and Crown Jewel, the company is going all out to put on a show for the Saudi crowd with huge matches.

The show will feature a 50-man Battle Royal, WWE Champion Kofi Kingston face Dolph Ziggler, Randy Orton battle his mentor Triple H, Universal Champion Seth Rollins vs Baron Corbin and the first-ever showdown between The Undertaker and Goldberg.

There are some stars who won't be appearing though, as John Cena and Daniel Bryan have will miss out once again, and Kevin Owens along with Sami Zayn, Aleister Black and the women's division have also not travelled to Saudi Arabia.

With so much going on, expect some shocks later today.

Here are five huge swerves WWE could pull off at Super Showdown 2019.

#5: Hulk Hogan returns

Hogan hosted last year's Crown Jewel event.

Hulk Hogan has been seldom used since he was re-instated into the WWE Hall of Fame, after being fired for using racial slurs.

Since then, Hogan has been featured in front of a crowd only a handful of times, but received a warm reception at last year's Crown Jewel event.

The Hulkster, for all his flaws, is still an icon of wrestling, and having Hogan appear would definitely draw up some media buzz.

A Hogan return wouldn't be the most shocking thing to see, but after what he said, many fans are shocked he's even in WWE today at all.

#4: A Women's match

Bliss and Natalya could make history during tonight's huge show.

When the WWE hosted their first event as part of the decade-long deal, the Greatest Royal Rumble, there was a lot of controvery.

Amongst other issues, many fans took umbrage with the company banning all women from the show, coinciding with KSA's strict laws against females.

Seen as hypocritical of a company which has championed itself in recent years as icons of equality, the WWE could save some face if they had a women's match today.

There have been rumors of a women's match taking place at the event, as former Champion Natalya has been seen taking a "long flight" recently

According to Wrestlevotes, there was a plan for Natalya to face Nia Jax before the former RAW Women's Champion's injury, and now it looks like the company could make history with Natalya vs Alexa Bliss.

#3: Lesnar cashes in on Kofi, Big E heel turn

Kofi could lose much more than his WWE Championship.

The WWE Championship victory of Kofi Kingston at WrestleMania 35 was one of the most emotional moments in WWE in recent years, as the eleven-year odyssey of the Ghanian Superstar finally came to fruition.

And though Kofi is set to face Dolph Ziggler at Super ShowDown, he may have a bigger issue on his mind: Brock Lesnar

Lesnar is the current Money in the Bank holder, and though he has strongly hinted he will cash-in on Universal Champion Seth Rollins, there's no reason why he wouldn't go after Kofi.

The only thing that could make this sadder, is a Big E heel turn, perhaps tired of being Kofi's sidekick, much like he started on the main roster as Ziggler's sidekick.

Between Lesnar and Dolph, Kofi's days as champion could be numbered.

#2: A legend becomes 24/7 Champion

Truth is now a five-time 24/7 Champion.

It may have only been around for a handful of weeks, but the 24/7 Championship is quickly proving itself to be one of the most interesting aspects of WWE today.

Much like it's predecessor the Hardcore championship, the title must be defended at all times, something it's current and five-time champion R-Truth is finding out the hard way.

Recently winning the gold back from Jinder Mahal on a plane ride to Jeddah, Truth doesn't have a match for Super Showdown, so will probably be filling out the numbers in the battle royal.

Despite being in a battle royal, if Truth gets pinned, he will lose the title, meaning he is a prime target for the other 49, and could even lose the title to a legend!

Who that legend will be? Well, let's just say it's true! It's damn true!

#1: Brock Lesnar. Undisputed WWE Universal Champion

Are we ready for the era of Brock 2 Belts?

The WWE events in Saudi Arabia have already provided some shocking moments, but the image of Brock Lesnar with both the WWE and Universal Championships could top them all.

It's not clear how WWE could pull this off, though there are plenty of possibilities.

One recent opinion piece says WWE could give the Battle Royal winner the prize of a guaranteed title shot (akin to MITB), and Lesnar could get another shot that way.

After cashing in one opportunity for the WWE title, The Beast could do the same for the Universal title, and emerge as the Undisputed King of all WWE.

Don't get me wrong, I think this is a bad idea, and WWE would be fools to even think about it, but we all know to never say never with WWE.
