3 major segments that can happen on Raw this week

WWE Raw emanates from the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and will be the go-home show before Royal Rumble. We are aware that whenever a go-home show comes on TV, we see a fight between the wrestlers in the match, and that occupies most of the program. With so many impromptu matches being created over the past fortnight, we haven't seen a good build-up for various matches - like Sasha Banks versus Ronda Rousey.

The pair has the potential to build any story, but they didn't get enough TV time and with the tag-team match to take place during this week, we may see Sasha change character and turn heel. In an attempt to save their friends, Natalya and Bayley may also get into a heated confrontation, and if the two are able to exchange blows, we may see them fight it out during the Royal Rumble kick-off show.

While this is what is expected during next week's Sunday, we can all agree that this week's episode will be filled with a lot of firecrackers, and I list the top 3 moments that could potentially happen on Raw::

#1 Vince McMahon doesn't believe in Finn Balor

Believe in Finn

Vince McMahon doesn't believe in Finn Balor, and the same was made clear by Finn when he interrupted the segment last week, saying it to the Chairman's face. While he might not believe in him, the fans do, which will be extended this week with Vince placing another hurdle in Balor's way. If he's able to overcome his next opponent, the proposed match against The Beast Incarnate at the Royal Rumble will be on, and we all know the end result.

This will make Finn the underdog while also receiving a lot of praise from the WWE Universe.

#2 Sasha Banks turns heel

Heel Boss time

The Boss of the WWE is known for her amazing in-ring skills, and her mic skills are second to none. Due to such an amazing personality, she earned the respect of the current Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey and was handpicked as her upcoming opponent at the Royal Rumble.

With little to no possibilities of Ronda losing the title at the Rumble, we may see the vicious side of Sasha next week on Sunday, though this week we could see her attack Rousey after their tag-team match on Monday night's show.

#3 Brock Lesnar destroys Finn Balor

Return, Destroy, Repeat

Brock Lesnar is a beast inside the ring, but his opponent is no ordinary man. When he turns the tide, he turns into The Demon King - who can take down anyone at any time. While Balor won't be in his demon persona at that moment, he would come out to address The Humble Advocate's claims about his client before being victimized by the biggest box-office attraction.

This segment will set the pace for Royal Rumble, and if it happens during the main event, you can understand what else can happen on the event that starts the Road to WrestleMania.
