The WWE Universe is waiting eagerly to witness WWE's one of the biggest pay-per-views of the year, Royal Rumble. With the epic extravaganza just two days away, social media has been buzzing with new predictions and speculations every single hour.

While things seem very obvious and predictable for most of the matches of Royal Rumble, Creative might surprise us with a few shocking decisions (don't get surprised if Finn Balor becomes the new Universal Champion).

While January 27 will see many existing feuds conclude, it will also lay down the breadcrumbs for a few new feuds for Elimination Chamber and especially for WrestleMania 35. Thus, the upcoming edition of Monday Night Raw following Royal Rumble becomes of vital importance.

It will not only have a few shocks and surprises up its sleeve but would also give us a fair idea of WWE's plans for WrestleMania 35.

So, without further ado, let's take a look at 3 interesting things which could happen on the Raw following the Rumble.


#3 Becky Lynch attacks Ronda Rousey to send her a message

It is no hidden fact that Becky Lynch is most likely to enter and win the 30 women Royal Rumble match to clash with Ronda Rousey for the Raw Women's Championship in what could possibly be the main event of WrestleMania 35.

However, we might witness WWE adding Charlotte Flair in the rumored match to make it a triple threat match at 'Mania.

Thus, Creative could have Becky make a shocking appearance on the upcoming episode of Raw to attack and decimate Ronda Rousey.

This would be her way of saying "It is on for Mania 35". And so to send a message to the Rowdy one, Lynch could show up and take out Rousey on Monday Night Raw following Rumble.

#2 Surprise returns and new feuds

While the members of the Wyatt Family are cleared to compete and are expected to show up in the Royal Rumble match, Kevin Owens is rumoured to make his return on the upcoming episode of Raw according to the recent reports.

Thus, WWE could ignite a few interesting feuds on the upcoming edition of Raw.

While The Wyatts might directly go in the tag team title fixture to feud with Bobby Roode and Chad Gable, given the underwhelming state of tag teams on the red brand, Kevin Owens is expected to feud with Bobby Lashley for the Intercontinental Championship.

Given the history that the Prizefighter and The Almighty share, we could be in for an intense battle between the duo while on another note, The Wyatts addition in the tag team division would certainly spice things up a bit and make the tag division relevant on the red brand.

#1 The Rock vs Brock Lesnar becomes official for WrestleMania 35

Though Brock Lesnar vs Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship is reportedly in the talks for WrestleMania 35, don't get shocked if Lesnar fails to retain the title at Rumble.

Well, given the dwindling ratings WWE would most likely not take the risk of having a part-timer as the Universal Champion in this new era for as long as WrestleMania 35. Also, Lesnar got the better of Balor on the last episode of Raw before Rumble (reverse psychology).

So, WWE could have Balor vs Rollins vs McIntyre for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 35 while The Rock and The Beast face off each other in a dream match at the grandest stage of them all.

WWE could have The Rock show up to cost Lesnar his title laying down the breadcrumbs for a potential WrestleMania match and then they might as well officiate it on the very next episode of Monday Night Raw.
