3 things WWE secretly told us on RAW after Double or Nothing (27 May 2019)

AEW took wrestling world by storm as Double or Nothing was a stellar show. Everyone was waiting to see the response of WWE. Vince McMahon's company was anticipated to deliver a great episode of the red brand but it did not reach the expectations. It was a substandard show with some lengthy segments and ordinary matches.

Baron Corbin became the number one contender of Universal Championship after overcoming Bobby Lashley, Braun Strowman and The Miz. Ricochet took on Cesaro in a rematch of last week and it was certainly the best match of the night. Shane McMahon dismantled one of Roman Reigns' cousins but the Big Dog came out for rescue.

The newly crowned US Champion Rey Mysterio relinquished the belt after suffering an injury, while Seth Rollins defeated Sami Zayn. Becky Lynch and Nikki Cross teamed up to beat the IIconics. Moreover, Dolph Ziggler appeared on RAW and attacked Kofi Kingston. Ziggler also had a massive brawl with Xavier Woods. Brock Lesnar appeared on RAW and the Beast was highly entertaining with his Beast Box.

The RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch teamed up with Nikki Cross this week. The two women faced the Women's Tag Team Champions IIconics. The Man pinned Peyton Royce to seal a victory for her team but Lacey Evans showed up after the match. It is clear that the company will extend the rivalry between Becky Lynch and Lacey Evans.

The Sassy Southern Belle and The Man began the rivalry after the Show of Shows. They had an intense build-up before meeting each other at Money in the Bank. Lynch defeated Evans to retain the RAW Women's Title.

The rivalry has garnered the attention of the WWE Universe. Evans is a brilliant heel who creates a nuclear heat. On the other hand, Lynch is currently a fan favourite. The Sassy Southern Belle could get a rematch for the most coveted women's prize of the red brand and the two women might lock horns at Stomping Grounds next month.

#2 AJ Styles could cost Baron Corbin the Universal Championship match

WWE Super ShowDown is just two weeks away which will take place in Saudi Arabia. The company has confirmed several matches for the event and another match got finalised this week. Baron Corbin will face Seth Rollins for the most coveted prize of RAW in Jeddah.

Baron Corbin overcame some odds on Monday Night RAW this week. Corbin faced three other opponents on RAW as he pinned The Miz to become the number one contender of Universal Championship. Though the fans are not ecstatic about the Universal Championship bout, Rollins and Corbin could offer a great match at Super ShowDown.

Following a slap from Styles last week, Corbin attacked an injured Styles this week. The former WWE Champion could be seeking revenge after the attack. Styles could cost Corbin the Universal Championship match at Super ShowDown and it could be an ideal vengeance. The two men could start a new feud after Super ShowDown.

#1 Brock Lesnar might continue the Brock Party persona

Without a shadow of a doubt, Brock Lesnar was the best thing on WWE RAW this week. Lesnar is known for his dominant persona which is why he is called the Beast Incarnate. However, we saw a different scenario on the red brand this week.

Lesnar opened the show with Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston. The former Universal Champion turned the Money in the Bank briefcase into a boombox. The briefcase got a design of a boombox and Lesnar was dancing in the squared circle. It was certainly one of the most hilarious segments in the recent months but it was refreshing to see Lesnar in a fun-loving persona.

Lesnar was supposed to choose a champion of his preference to cash-in the Money in the Bank contract. However, it did not happen and both champions will be a dilemma after this week. Lesnar's comical segment was the highlight of this week and we are expected to see the different side of Beast Incarnate in future.
