5 Surprises that could happen at WWE Fastlane 2019

#2 The New Day turns heel and costs, Kevin Owens, his WWE Title match against Daniel Bryan

Will The New Day finally turn heel?

This past week on SmackDown, Kofi Kingston was replaced by Kevin Owens in the WWE Title match against Daniel Bryan at Fastlane. The change happened during the contract signing between Kingston and Bryan to make their match official for the event.

Vince McMahon arrived before Kingston could sign the contract. The chairman appreciated whatever Kingston has achieved in 11 years of his WWE career, but stated that the WWE Title match for Fastlane isn't a "box office" attraction, so he replaced Kofi with a returning Owens.

Now, if rumors are to be believed, this change has occurred for setting a WrestleMania moment for Kingston where he will finally become the WWE Champion and the sudden replacement was done to bring more sympathy and support for the New Day member.

But WWE could completely surprise us if they instead turn The New Day heel and cost Owens his WWE Title match against Bryan at Fastlane. Obviously, there was a lot of frustrations among all the three members of The New Day and if history is to be believed then these frustrations always lead to a change in character.

To be honest, Bryan vs. Kingston isn't a WrestleMania calibre match, already we know Kevin Owens would be working as a face going forward, so we could get a feud between face Owens and heel New Day for WrestleMania season.
