Following an action-packed Money in the Bank, the fans were eagerly waiting for RAW. The red brand had some impressive matches with entertaining segments.
The Men's Money in the Bank winner Brock Lesnar opened the show with Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston. The two champions subsequently teamed up to take on the team of Bobby Lashley and Baron Corbin. Mick Foley unveiled the new Championship, which is called the 24/7 Title. The belt could be defended 24 hours and we got three champions on its first night.
Cesaro defeated Ricochet, while Drew McIntyre pinned the Miz with the help of Shane McMahon. Bray Wyatt continued to show his Firefly Fun House and we witnessed a dark side of Wyatt's new character. Surprisingly, the Revival managed to win against the Usos. Braun Strowman dismantled Sami Zayn this week after both Superstars did not take part in the Money in the Bank Ladder match.
It was a great episode of the flagship show. Here we discuss three things WWE secretly told us this week.
#3 Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross could become a new Tag Team
We saw an unusual alliance last week when Nikki Cross decided to replace Alexa Bliss in the fatal-4 way match. Cross was impressive and she won the bout. As a matter of fact, she also replaced Bliss in the Money in the Bank Ladder match as the latter was not medically cleared to wrestle.
The new alliance continued on RAW this week when Cross offered to co-host 'A Moment of Bliss'. Vince McMahon's billion dollar company might be planning a new storyline for the two stars. Moreover, Cross is slowly giving up her crazy persona. Bliss and Cross could be a great Tag Team.
They could be propelled in the Women's Tag Team division. There is no denying that the Women's Tag Team division needs more big names after the split of Boss N Hug Connection. Cross could get a major push as a Tag Team partner of five-time women's Champion Alexa Bliss.
#2 Becky Lynch and Lacey Evans will extend the rivalry
Since Becky Lynch lost the SmackDown Women's Championship at Money in the Bank, we can assume that Lynch is part of the red brand. However, The Man could appear on the blue brand through the Wild Card Rule. Lynch is still the holder of the RAW Women's Championship and she is likely to have a good run after an impressive victory against Lacey Evans.
Evans and Lynch offered an exciting rivalry in the last few weeks. The feud began on the RAW after the Showcase of Immortals and it grabbed the attention of WWE Universe. The Sassy Southern Belle has been extremely impressive in her maiden feud on the main roster. The duo offered a great bout at the XL Center.
The Sassy Southern Belle could not overcome the Man, but the former cost Lynch the SmackDown Women's Championship. Moreover, they were part of the six-woman Tag Team match on RAW.
Considering the scenario at Money in the Bank and RAW, the rivalry is likely to continue. Evans creates a nuclear heat as a heel and it will be interesting to see them collide again.
#1 Brock Lesnar might target the WWE World Title
WWE stunned the fans at Money in the Bank when Brock Lesnar showed up and became Mr. Money in the Bank. It was certainly one of the biggest shockers in the history of Money in the Bank. Earlier, seven Superstars competed in the match as Sami Zayn could not participate.
Both Kofi Kingston and Seth Rollins confronted Brock Lesnar this week. Though Rollins and Kingston provoked Lesnar to cash in the Money in the Bank briefcase, Lesnar did not do anything. Lesnar is scheduled to have a match at Super ShowDown and it will be interesting to see if Lesnar decides to cash in the contract before heading to Saudi Arabia.
Although Lesnar did not get a rematch of Universal Championship, he might demand it in Saudi Arabia. Lesnar has been in the Universal Title picture over two years and it is certainly tedious for the WWE Universe. Considering the WWE Champion Kofi Kingston also confronted Lesnar, the latter might go for the WWE World Title.
Since SmackDown Live will move to Fox, Lesnar could be a great addition in the blue brand. Moreover, it will be refreshing to see Lesnar as the WWE Champion.
