Will Carmella soften up the champion for a potential cash-in, or will Natalya prove that Ms. Money in the Bank isn’t ready to hold the SmackDown Women’s Title?
Will Kevin Owens continue to rail against Shane McMahon?
KO tried to prove his point last week, taking over as official after forcing the referee for the match between Sami Zayn and Aiden English’s match to give him his jersey. Owens may have gone a bit overboard, planting Zayn with a Pop-up Powerbomb, then fast-counting English’s pinfall. Shane ruled that Owens’ decision as the impromptu referee was not official, but seemingly now realizes just how furious Owens is. Will Kevin Owens continue to antagonize Shane McMahon?
Will Dolph Ziggler finally show off his star power?

Will Ziggler finally unveil what will give him unprecedented star power?
