WWE planning a shocking title change on the roster before Money in the Bank? Exploring the possibility
This Money in the Bank weekend is set to witness one of the most exciting lineups of shows in 2024. Saturday's Money in the Bank and Sunday's NXT Heatwave will cap off the three-show weekend at Scotiabank Arena, which begins tonight with Friday Night SmackDown. Fans could witness a huge title change on the blue brand ahead of the upcoming spectacle.
A huge championship match has been advertised for the go-home edition of SmackDown, where A-Town Down Under will defend the WWE Tag Team Championships against DIY. DIY could pull off a huge upset and become the new champions by defeating Austin Theory and Grayson Waller.
Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa have been around the title picture for quite some time now. On the other hand, tensions seem to be brewing between the reigning WWE Tag Team Champions. Waller has seemingly been manipulating Theory and the latter finally seems to be realizing it.
This could ultimately play out to be a huge factor during the match, with A-Town Down Under losing the gold tonight. The possibility of this title change on the go-home episode of SmackDown before Money in the Bank is quite high, as it will set the tone for the fans in Toronto and hype them up for the Saturday PLE.
This could also pave the way for the breakup of A-Town Down Under with Theory's potential babyface turn on SmackDown. It remains to be seen if DIY captures the WWE Tag Team Championships tonight.
Possibility of Austin Theory turning babyface on the SmackDown before Money in the Bank
There is a high chance that we see Austin Theory turn babyface in the near future. This character change could happen as soon as tonight on the go-home episode of SmackDown before Money in the Bank. His WWE Tag Team Championship defense could be that moment that strikes his fury and gets him away from Waller.
There's a good possibility that Theory can have a change of heart during the match and contemplate all the things Waller has been doing to him. This could very well cost them their titles, but it could also ignite his babyface turn. DIY has also been trying to make him reflect on the actions of his tag team partner.
Another possible thing that could happen is that The Aussie Icon could attack Austin Theory after their potential loss. Grayson Waller could blame the 26-year-old for their loss and bash him with his Rolling Thunder Stunner to finally break up their team. This could officially mark the split of A-Town Down Under.
Both of these possibilities are plausible and would result in A-Town Down Under's downfall. The storyline has been spicing up in recent weeks, and it could eventually lead to both superstars embarking on singles runs. Only time will tell what happens in Toronto ahead of Money in the Bank.
