The Super Show-Down results are in, and fans are reeling from the outcome of some of the matches. Without a doubt, the event is one of the best that WWE has produced in recent memory, and the WWE universe is eagerly waiting to find out what will happen next.
The impact of some matches may be easy to see with several matches already being announced or guessed at, but the WWE creative team never reveals all the cards in their hand. In this article, we take a look at storylines that may emerge as a result of the Super Show-Down results.
Honorable Mentions
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
This section is dedicated to John Cena since rumors are spreading all-round the wrestling industry that he is retiring. Although he has not been involved in a WWE storyline in recent months, John's impact in the WWE is still being felt.
With his recent tag team victory against Elias and Kevin Owens, John may play a more significant role in the WWE. John Cena teaming with Lashley may give the latter much-needed credibility with fans.
If the WWE continues to pit them against Elias and Owens, they might take advantage of the heat that the two heels are generating to prepare them for an upcoming push. All in all, seeing more of John Cena in the WWE is a good thing.
#5 Asuka turning heel
After a spate of recent dominant victories over the IIconics, Asuka and Naomi lost at Super Show-Down. The loss was a big blow to Asuka because she has been picking up a lot of momentum and the WWE Universe expected her to get a push soon.
With this recent loss, Asuka may choose to turn heel and reestablish herself once again as one of WWE's most dominant women. A heel Asuka may insert herself into the SmackDown Women Championship situation and if she wins, it would be great to see her fight Ronda Rousey in a champion vs. champion match.
#4 The Miz interfering with AJ Styles vs. Daniel Bryan
AJ Styles vs. Daniel Bryan is a dream match for many of the WWE fans, but The Miz may interfere and make it a nightmare. Daniel Bryan's quick victory angered The Miz, and he might seek retribution through ensuring Daniel never wins the WWE Championship. If The Miz interferes, it might lead to a triple threat match for the WWE Championship.
#3 Samoa Joe vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
With AJ Syles' decisive victory at Super Show-Down, Joe moves to the back of the line for the WWE Championship. With that in mind, Joe may choose to turn his attention to the US Championship.
The US title was conspicuously absent from Super Show-Down because of the lack of legitimate challengers to the throne of Nakamerica. If Joe chooses to focus on the US Title, it may give it much needed credibility not to mention the awesome matches he would have with Shinsuke. Both Superstars are currently heels and it would be awesome to see who would emerge the victor.
#2 Ruby Riott vs. Ronda Rousey
Of all the women Ronda has faced in the WWE, none has pushed her to the limit as much as Ruby Riott has. Nia Jax came close but with the size mismatch, it any match between them is bound to be presented as a David vs. Goliath bout.
With Ruby, on the other hand, the match is more of a technical showcase as opposed to a strength display. Ruby might be the most gifted heel on the RAW's women division and if she goes up against Ronda it might lead to greater things in her future. Ronda will also benefit from facing Ruby due to the added in-ring experience.
#1 Dean Ambrose's future
At the end of their match with the Dogs of War, The Shield remained united but for how long will the brotherhood last? WWE has been teasing a Dean Ambrose heel turn but with their failure to deliver at Super Show-Down, it remains a matter of time before Dean turns on his brothers and takes one of his championships for himself.
The best way to execute this would be to have him become a Paul Heyman guy and go for the Intercontinental Championship while Brock focuses on the Universal Title. A Dean Ambrose and Brock Lesnar partnership would be nigh unstoppable.
