Crown Jewel 2024 is a few days away, and it already looks like Triple H is pulling out all the stops for it. For one, he has already broken a huge rule for WWE premium live events.

So, with that in mind, a lot of major surprises can be expected. Some could involve a betrayal, with one superstar either turning heel or babyface. A couple of them are inevitable, but WWE may want to shock us even more.

From returns to title changes, four such betrayals could happen this Saturday at Crown Jewel 2024.


New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

#4. Tiffany Stratton can cash in on Nia Jax

WWE needs to pull the trigger on this sooner rather than later. Nia Jax has been bossing Tiffany Stratton around for too long, to the point where we all feel sorry for Miss Money in the Bank.

She will try to cash in at Crown Jewel, with Jax competing for the namesake championship against Liv Morgan. However, Stratton needs to be smart about it.

The former NXT Women's Champion could "accidentally" cost Nia Jax the WWE Crown Jewel Title, before stabbing her in the back. Tiffany Stratton would get a massive pop if she cashed in Money in the Bank.

After all, we are owed a moment like this since none of the four world titles are being defended at the show.


#3. Braun Strowman might return to WWE and align with Bronson Reed

This swerve is only possible under a few conditions. First off, Braun Strowman would need to be able to make the trip to Saudi Arabia amid his groin injury. He doesn't need to do anything outrageous, though. A simple distraction to his former tag team partner, Seth Rollins, would be enough.

It would be one hell of a statement if WWE was to put its two biggest monsters in a tag team. Strowman may have beaten Bronson Reed, but they went head-to-head until the very end of their feud. That is how respect is earned among rivals.

Reed and Rollins will go at it in a similarly intense match at Crown Jewel. However, like The Visionary did in the Last Monster Standing Match four weeks ago, it could end with a huge run-in. Braun Strowman turning heel would be an unpredictable swerve.


#2. Randy Orton could cost Cody Rhodes the WWE Crown Jewel Championship

Another turn that is inevitable; it's only a matter of time before Randy Orton betrays Cody Rhodes. It could happen at Crown Jewel despite the chances seemingly being low. The Viper is set to face Kevin Owens in Riyadh, so his focus will be on The Prizefighter.

Furthermore, KO is the likelier option to cost Cody Rhodes his WWE Crown Jewel Title match against Gunther. It's an easy set-up for Survivor Series. But what if Orton loses to Owens and betrays his only other friend out of frustration?

After all, this entire situation started when The American Nightmare decided to team up with Roman Reigns. With Kevin Owens turning heel, it has now affected Randy Orton, too. Cody Rhodes is on borrowed time!

This would lead to a triple threat match for the Undisputed WWE Championship at Survivor Series while whetting the appetite for a singles program between Rhodes and Orton.


#1. Sami Zayn could double-cross Solo Sikoa at Crown Jewel

This is the big one.

Following WWE RAW this week, the whole world thinks Sami Zayn is working with Solo Sikoa. He was spotted talking to the new Tribal Chief in the parking lot, causing Jey Uso to lose trust in his friend. However, the entire thing may be a well-thought-out plan from Zayn to prove he can be trusted.

The former Honorary Uce will likely appear during the Bloodline six-man tag team match. Initially looking like he'll help Solo, Sami Zayn can instead stop the heels from using their numbers advantage by attacking Tonga Loa.

This would allow Roman Reigns and The Usos to win at Crown Jewel. Most importantly, it would set up both teams for the impending WarGames Match at Survivor Series.
