3 WWE Superstars who could turn heel at Crown Jewel 2019
Scheduled for October 31st, 2019, WWE Crown Jewel is just 4 days away from this Sunday. The highly anticipated show will emanate from King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and broadcast live on the WWE Network.
With a 20-Man Battle Royal, plus AJ Styles vs TBD for the US Title being the latest additions, WWE has now announced a total of eight high profile clashes for the event. WWE confirmed that winner of the 20-Man Battle Royal will take on Styles for the United States Championship later that very same evening.
Given the star-studded match card, WWE Crown Jewel promises to be an epic event, but WWE could be planning a few shocking swerves to add to the element of surprise and lay some breadcrumbs for future feuds. This could include some heartbreaking heels turns.
Without any further adieu, let's take a look at three WWE Superstars who could turn heel at Crown Jewel.
#3 Ali
WWE has announced a 10-Man Tag Team Match between Team Hogan (Captain Roman Reigns, Rusev, Ricochet, Ali, Shorty G) and Team Flair (Captain Randy Orton, King Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley, WWE Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura and Drew McIntyre) for Crown Jewel.
However, after being announced as a part of Team Hogan for Crown Jewel, Ali went on to take a shot at Hulk Hogan over Twitter:
With a single tweet, WWE may have laid down the breadcrumbs for an Ali heel turn on October 31st.
Ali could turn on his team, costing them the 10-Man Tag Team Match. Creative may even have the SmackDown Superstar join forces with Team Flair to beat the living daylights out of the entire Hulk Hogan led team.
It is also noteworthy that Ali currently seems a bit lost in the mix on the SmackDown roster and a heel turn might help rejuvenate his WWE career.
