WWE stars to turn babyface at Survivor Series 2026: Two heels that could see the light in Houston

With three big matches now official for the WWE Survivor Series 2026 card, the November 28 premium live event is taking shape.

With Crown Jewel seeing Tiffany Stratton turn heel and Cody Rhodes embrace the dark side (to an extent) by punting Randy Orton, perhaps Survivor Series will feature the opposite, with heel WWE stars seeing the light and turning babyface.

Here are two WWE stars that could potentially turn babyface at Survivor Series 2026:

Paul Heyman

With the World Tag Team Titles no longer in their possession, Bron Breakker and The Vision have turned their attention back towards Oba Femi.

Breakker and Femi met in the opening match of Monday’s WWE Raw, and much like their last meeting at Sunday Night’s Main Event, there was no definitive winner as The Vision attacked Femi just as he had the match won.

This could lead to a blow-off match between Femi and Breakker at Survivor Series, a match that could potentially coax Paul Heyman out of his current WWE hiatus.

Heyman was last seen attempting to recruit Femi a month ago, an offer that “The Ruler” declined. The Vision have confusingly yet to acknowledge this despite Heyman previously being “The Oracle” of the group, but Survivor Series could see Heyman re-enter the picture.

With WWE clearly reluctant to have Breakker lose clean to Femi, a Paul Heyman betrayal could be their way of keeping him looking somewhat strong, while also finally severing Heyman’s ties to The Vision for good.

Roxanne Perez

While it remains to be seen whether WWE added Breakker vs. Femi, or any other matches to the Survivor Series 2026 card, one match we do know will be happening in Houston is Liv Morgan vs. Becky Lynch for the Women’s World Championship.

This likely confirms that Texas’ own Roxanne Perez will NOT be wrestling in her home state on November 28, but that doesn’t necessarily mean she can’t still give the fans at Daikin Park something to cheer.

Fans have been wanting Roxanne Perez to break away from Liv Morgan for a while now, yet WWE missed their best opportunity to make that happen when they booked Tiffany Stratton to win this year’s Money in the Bank – a decision that still has many riled up one month later.

A Royal Rumble win for Perez, followed by a one-on-one match with Liv Morgan at WrestleMania 43, is probably the way WWE should go at this point, but Survivor Series is another option on the table if WWE want to breathe some life into Judgment Day and the Women’s World Title picture as a whole.

Whether that means Perez costing Morgan her title – which probably wouldn’t make a lot of sense if she wants the gold for herself – or simply attacking her stablemate after the bell, we could see ‘The Prodigy” step out on her own in Houston.
