With WWE Night of Champions just days away, a new report has shed some light on the potential outcomes for the event’s biggest matches. According to a report from WrestleVotes Radio, the creative direction following the premium live event points toward two specific winners.
WrestleVotes noted that while plans can always change, the current direction indicates the winners for the two headline matches are expected to be John Cena retaining the Undisputed WWE Championship and Cody Rhodes winning the King of the Ring tournament. It should be noted that WWE has the right to change plans at the last minute, but the information they have received points toward specific post-show storylines.
“According to those within the company, and in similar fashion to how we cautioned everyone prior to Money In The Bank in regards to potential match winners, again, things can change day off, but based on what we were hearing then, and based on what creative has lined out for post Night of Champions, we can tell you the leading candidates for the winners for the two headline matches this weekend are that of John Cena retaining and Cody Rhodes winning King of the Ring again.
Guys, they have the right to change things on the fly, and have we, as we’ve seen, they certainly can do that. But TC, we had creative directions pointed towards us that it may look like Seth Rollins or Solo winning money in the bank, and it certainly was Seth Rollins, and on the women’s side, it was either Rhea Ripley or Naomi. Turned out to be Naomi. We are getting indications, again, that story lines post Night of Champions indicate that the winners of those two big matches will be John Cena and Cody Rhodes.”
