Bash in Berlin is right around the horizon, and following SummerSlam, WWE may be looking to make inroads into several storylines. So far, just one match has been set. Randy Orton and Gunther will go head to head for the latter’s WWE World Heavyweight championship. Cody Rhodes, the company’s other world champion, appears to be getting a lot of attention as a result of this match announcement. As a result, the IWC is attempting to anticipate who will challenge him next.

Rhodes successfully defended against Solo Sikoa in this year’s SummerSlam, with aid from Roman Reigns. After this bout, the American Nightmare doesn’t have an opposition lined up. Sikoa and Reigns will get into the thick of it over The Bloodline leaving Rhodes with no obvious candidate. Thus it may be time for a new superstar to face him. The WWE Universe has been speculating about who it may be, and the first candidate that came to mind is Kevin Owens.

We all know that The Prize Fighter has been in the champion’s corner recently. However, perhaps it is time for him to turn heel. Following this, a large match at Bash in Berlin can be scheduled in which the former WWE champion and Cody Rhodes will face off for the belt.

The WWE Universe has a lot of trust in this scenario transpiring since Randy Orton and Owens continue to appear in the main event scenario. Moreover, it appears that now is the moment for Owens and Orton to turn heel and accomplish their goals.

Wrestling faithful suggest that Cody Rhodes’ title reign may be in jeopardy

Wrestling fans all over the internet are so desperate for this bout. Not only that, but fans hope Kevin Owens wins the match and becomes the new Champion. Perhaps this is the compromise they settled on after hopes of an Orton-Rhodes matchup didn’t transpire. They stated, “Randy Orton Can Turn Heel after Winning the World Heavyweight Championship and Kevin Owens Can Win the WWE Championship by Beating Cody Rhodes and Turning heel”

Some fans have begun booking their fantasy Bash in Berlin matchcards, and this matchup appears as the most prominent one. Fan’s tweet stated, “Bash in Berlin matches (My prediction)
1. Cody Rhodes V/s Kevin Owens (Undisputed WWE Championship)
2. Liv Morgan V/s Rhea Ripley (No DQ Rules Women’s World Championship)
3. Roman Reigns V/s Solo Sikoa
4. Finn Balor & JD V/s Jey Uso & Sami Zayn (World Tag Team Championship)”

Not only that, but other fans have tweeted that after turning heel, Owens could take care of the Bloodline business in the same way that he can take care of Rhodes. One fan’s match card prediction stated,

“I’d book Bash In Berlin
Cody Rhodes vs Kevin Owens- WWE title
Gunther vs Randy Orton- WHC
Bron Breakker vs Ilja Dragunov- IC title
LA Knight vs AJ STYLES- US title
Rhea, Priest, Rey vs Liv, Balor, Dom”

Furthermore, numerous fans suggested that this clash could be the main event of the night. The deeply personal matter if Owens turns heel could propel the match’s importance. Their match card prediction stated,

“Cody Rhodes vs Kevin Owens- WWE title
Gunther vs Randy Orton- WHC
Bron Breakker vs Ludwig Kaiser vs Sheamus – IC title (Dunne costs Sheamus the match)
LA Knight vs Logan Paul- US title
Rhea Ripley & Damian Priest vs Liv Morgan & Dom
Jey & Sami vs JD & Finn – WTC” 

Some fans even resorted to Twitter to demand that this match should happen. Owens hasn’t pursued a world title in a while and him embracing the dark side would add layers to this story. They stated,

“This match should happen for the WWE Title. Cody Rhodes vs. Kevin Owens”
