The highly anticipated Superstar Shake-up is done and dusted. And barring one or two slip-ups, WWE did an amazing job as it proved to be a huge success.
While WWE not switching Braun Strowman to the blue brand made a few heads turn, they were highly praised for switching the respective brands of AJ Styles and The Big Dog, Roman Reigns.
All in all, the Superstar Shake-up mostly lived up to the expectations of both the WWE fans as well as critics alike. However, the job is not complete yet as WWE needs to deliver with the same intensity each time, given the fact that the WrestleMania season is now well and truly over.
WWE Universe would be hoping for another stellar show when WWE Raw comes live from Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa.
Expect creative to lay down the breadcrumbs for a few potential feuds between some high profile names of the roster on the upcoming episode of Raw. Furthermore, given Money in the Bank is not that far away, expect WWE to start building up to the pay-per-view as soon as this Monday night.
And yes you guessed it right, in this article we are going to discuss 3 interesting things which could happen on the upcoming episode of Raw.
#3 The Viking Experience become the number 1 contenders for the Raw Tag Team Championship
The Viking Experience, formerly called The War Raiders during their stint in the NXT, was drafted to the red brand in the Superstar Shakeup last Monday night on Raw.
The duo along with The Revival not only registered an impressive win over the team of Ricochet, Black and the current Raw tag team Champs (Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder) but also managed to impress the WWE fans with their spellbinding performance.
And if a recent report of Cagesideseats is to be believed, then the Viking Experience is in line for a huge push and could very well earn a title shot against the current Raw Tag Team Champions.
Thus, the upcoming episode of Raw could feature The Viking Experience winning a muti-team match to become the number 1 contenders for the Raw Tag Team Championship at Money in the Bank.
#2 Samoa Joe attacks Braun Strowman to lay down the breadcrumbs for a classic feud
Even though Samoa Joe missed the last edition of Monday Night Raw due to the flu, Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer reports that he was drafted to the red brand in the recent Superstar Shakeup.
And rightfully so, given the fact that Finn Balor, the current Intercontinental Champion, moved to SmackDown Live, it was all but obvious that Joe, with his US title, moves to Raw roster.
However, Meltzer further went on to report that WWE has already planned a classic feud between Samoa Joe and Braun Strowman for the US championship.
And given the fact that the current US Champion is rumoured to feature on the upcoming episode of Raw, expect WWE to have Samoa Joe attack Braun Strowman to lay down the breadcrumbs for a classic feud leading to a potential matchup at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view.
#1 Drew McIntyre attacks Seth Rollins to lay down the foundation for a feud for the Universal Championship
Even though the speculations of a dream feud between AJ Styles and Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship have been making rounds ever since Styles was switched to Raw, this Monday night, I, personally, don't see it happening this quick. (Maybe at Summerslam 2019).
WWE has been building Drew McIntyre as the top heel of the company since late 2018 and it is highly speculated that he is next in line to feud with Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship.
And given the fact that there is not any storyline/feud surrounding the Universal Championship, expect WWE to have McIntyre attack Seth Rollins to lay down the foundation for an epic feud. This would then beautifully set up a high profile matchup between two stalwarts of WWE at Money in the Bank.
