WWE RAW - 5 Possible surprises- SmackDown star arrives to assault Vince McMahon, Bobby Lashley's opportunity goes to a surprising name

It is no secret that WWE RAW did poorly in the 18-49 demo last week. So poorly, in fact, that it was an all-time low number!

Desperate times call for desperate measures, meaning that something radical needs to happen to turn things around. How can the red brand remind the world that it was the premier destination for wrestling fans some twenty years ago?

These five surprises could certainly help! Feel free to comment on them and critique them all in the comments section below, reader. And yes, you may suggest your own surprises as well.

Change needs to begin right at the top, right? This is why the first WWE RAW surprise features one Vincent Kennedy McMahon.

#5 Drew McIntyre shows up on WWE RAW to confront Vince McMahon

The idea that WWE RAW and SmackDown superstars would stay confined to their own brands is no longer a hard and fast rule. We all saw how Randy Orton and Riddle from WWE RAW showed up on SmackDown last week for the main event match. There may be yet another star from the blue brand who may show up on the Monday night show in an effort to boost numbers.

Drew McIntyre could come face-to-face with Vince McMahon, asking him why he was not allowed to be a part of the battle royal on SmackDown a couple of weeks back. And in the scuffle that ensues, he could end up knocking out McMahon, leading to a Drew vs. Authority storyline. This is a feud that could elevate him as well as Austin Theory!

There are so many storylines that could emerge from this appearance. Shane McMahon could return to the fold again to seek retribution for the actions perpetrated on his father. The possibilities are truly endless.

#4 Austin Theory gets a shot at the WWE Championship ahead of Bobby Lashley

WWE RAW last week saw Vince McMahon throw an unexpected proposition to Austin Theory. The head of World Wrestling Entertainment asked him to go out and impress him, which resulted in a brutal beatdown on Finn Balor.

We know that Bobby Lashley wants a shot at the WWE Championship, but could McMahon throw a spanner in the works by making a very controversial decision? Could Theory be inserted into the title picture on WWE RAW, leading to a Lashley babyface turn?

#3 A WWE RAW Superstar undergoes a character change

We all know that Damian Priest loves his WWE RAW open challenges. Could Elias step out in a brand new avatar, perhaps with a whole new look to take the United States Champion to the limit on this week's show?

It may not even be the worst idea to book a title switch because the United States Championship hasn't been booked in a terrific manner anyway. It would shake things up.

#2 Alexa Bliss returns to WWE RAW and confronts Becky Lynch

Yes, Liv Morgan came up short on WWE RAW last week against Becky Lynch. But Lynch still needs an opponent for the Day 1 pay-per-view, which could be a great opportunity for Alexa Bliss to return.

A former WWE RAW Women's Champion on multiple occasions, Bliss may be just what the division needs. She could also ditch the supernatural gimmick and come back as 'The Goddess' once again, cutting those trademark scathing promos that made her famous.

#1 Kevin Owens tells yet another lie

Kevin Owens' current character is that of a master manipulator, who lies to get his way. With Bobby Lashley being as volatile as he is right now, could Owens feel some untruths and thereby cause him to go on a rampage?

By doing this, he could take out his two other opponents from the RAW roster- Seth Rollins and of course, the WWE Champion Big E. It's totally in line with his character and seems like something Kevin Owens would do.
