Cody Rhodes did not defend his Undisputed WWE Championship at Bad Blood and his title would once again not be on the line at the upcoming Crown Jewel. However, Survivor Series could be the place where fans can expect Cody to defend his belt. The upcoming edition of SmackDown could see a major announcement from Nick Aldis where the latter could reveal Rhodes’ next title match.
The American Nightmare could defend his Undisputed WWE Championship against Kevin Owens at Survivor Series. The possibility of it happening arose following their backstage altercation at Bad Blood. The Prizefighter attacked Cody Rhodes after the show went off the air. Therefore, Nick Aldis might address the backstage brawl on the show tonight.
The SmackDown GM might take stringent measures against KO for his actions. However, Aldis could also declare Owens the number one contender for Rhodes’ coveted title at this year’s Survivor Series. The prospect of this match happening at the November 30 spectacle is quite high. While Aldis could make this announcement on SmackDown, it may not happen tonight.
Cody Rhodes has a huge challenge ahead of him at Crown Jewel. Following the Triple H’s announcement at Bad Blood, The American Nightmare is scheduled to face Gunther for the Crown Jewel Championship in a Champion vs. Champion match. However, amid his blockbuster match at the spectacle, WWE could also simultaneously build up his storyline with Kevin Owens.
With the relationship between Rhodes and Owens taking a whole new turn, it will be interesting to see how things develop on SmackDown. Will Nick Aldis make any major announcement tonight in light of their backstage altercation at Bad Blood? It remains to be seen.
Could Kevin Owens cost Cody Rhodes his match at Crown Jewel?
Cody Rhodes is set to battle Gunther in a marquee match at Crown Jewel next month. This bout is expected to be a monumental showdown between the two top champions of the two brands. However, the match could end in controversial fashion as Kevin Owens could cost The American Nightmare the bout.
Owens seems to be on a rampage against Rhodes after what transpired backstage in Atlanta. Therefore, The Prizefighter might cost the 39-year-old his upcoming match against Gunther to add a new layer to their rivalry. The chances of it happening are quite high.
This would lead to The Ring General picking up a massive win over Cody Rhodes without compromising the latter’s credibility. Moreover, this will give The American Nightmare a strong reason to go after The Prizefighter, looking for revenge. It will undeniably add a compelling layer to their rivalry.
However, it is just a mere speculation at the moment. Only time will tell how things are going to move between Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens in the weeks to come before Crown Jewel.
