WWE will kick off a new era this Saturday when Wrestlapalooza marks the company's debut on ESPN. One of the most highly anticipated matches on the show will feature World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins and Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch taking on CM Punk and the recently returned AJ Lee in what will be perhaps the biggest Mixed Tag Team Match in the history of professional wrestling.
However, suppose there were any doubts about the validity of that statement. In that case, they have been indisputably cleared due to Lynch and Rollins' status as the top champions on RAW, Rollins' years-long feud with Punk, and a brilliant build to the match over the past few weeks. As such, even with the titles not on the line, the stakes are as high as they can be, and so is the hype leading up to Saturday.
How the Mixed Tag Team Match pans out is expected to have major consequences, both immediate and long-term, for the direction of RAW's main event scene and the overall direction of WWE. This makes it vital to discuss the various possibilities about the finish of Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch vs. CM Punk and AJ Lee at Wrestlepalooza.
In this article, we will discuss three such potential finishes to the biggest Mixed Tag Team Match of all time at WWE Wrestlepalooza:
Insane Vince McMahon ideas that got canceled - Watch Here!
#3. AJ Lee may pin/submit WWE Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch
AJ Lee scoring the fall over Becky Lynch would be the perfect way to mark her triumphant return, as she wrestles her first match in over a decade this Saturday at WWE Wrestlepalooza.
Tapping Lynch out via The Black Widow's submission move could allow WWE to put the tag team rivalry to bed perfectly and smoothly transition to the singles conflict between CM Punk and Seth Rollins, while Lee pinning or submitting Lynch should also earn her a shot at the Women's Intercontinental Championship.
Becky would then have no way and nowhere to run and hide, as AJ comes after the Women's Intercontinental Championship, kicking off a dream feud that may eventually lead to AJ's first title win in WWE in 11 years.
#2. CM Punk may put Seth Rollins to sleep
It is quite clear that following Wrestlepalooza, CM Punk and Seth Rollins will resume their heated and personal feud, this time with the World Heavyweight Championship also in play.
While automatic rematches are no longer the norm, a pinfall/submission win over a champion, even in a tag team setting, does traditionally grant one a championship opportunity, or at least, strengthen the case for it.
As such, instead of AJ Lee pinning Becky Lynch, the Triple H-led creative team may choose to allow CM Punk to score a pinfall over Seth Rollins instead, following his trademark GTS. In this case, AJ Lee getting her hands on Seth Rollins leading up to the finish would be an enticing opportunity, too.
#1. Becky Lynch could pin AJ Lee after Seth Rollins' potential attack on The Black Widow
Oh, how the tables turn! In multiple ways, too. At WWE Extreme Rules 2019, the erstwhile Baron Corbin, teaming up with Lacey Evans in a Last Chance Winners Take All Extreme Rules Mixed Tag Team Match for the Universal and the RAW Women's Championships, delivered a shocking End of Days to Becky Lynch in the crescendo of a match.
An incensed Seth Rollins then Stomped the former King Corbin multiple times to take the win and retain the titles. As Rollins, out of his mind, checked up on Lynch, Brock Lesnar returned to attack him, cashed in his MITB contract, and won back the Universal Title.
In 2019, the pair of Rollins and Lynch were sympathetic babyfaces. However, they are dastardly heels at the moment. Therefore, Rollins, if attacked by AJ, may break every code of decency and reach new lows of debasement by attacking the former Divas Champion, allowing Becky Lynch to pin AJ Lee.
This could bring CM Punk to his breaking point and set up a Hell in a Cell Match between RAW's two top guys, with the World Heavyweight Championship on the line, while also setting up Lynch vs. AJ. However, in this particular scenario, the conflicts heading into Crown Jewel would be more heated than one could ever have imagined.
