3 interesting things which could happen in the upcoming episode of Raw (29 April 2019)

The last episode of WWE's flagship show, Monday Night Raw, received positive to mixed reviews from the WWE Universe. While the show had its fair share of ups and downs, AJ Styles becoming the new number 1 contender for Seth Rollins' Universal Championship was easily the highlight of the show.

Bray Wyatt's return in a new character and the introduction of his amusing Firefly Fun House was another talking point of the show. And it would be quite interesting to see how WWE progresses which this storyline. Furthermore, WWE's move of relaunching Bobby Roode as Robert Roode with a new look also garnered a lot of praise as the Superstar impressed both critics and fans alike with his astounding win over Ricochet.

However, creative will need to move forward with the same intensity and continue with their good work when WWE Raw comes live from the Rupp Arena, Lexington KY.

Speaking of the upcoming Raw, WWE is advertising 'A Moment of Bliss' segment featuring Alexa Bliss who is expected to announce Raw participants in this year's Men's and Women's Money in the Bank ladder matches. Also, given Money In the Bank is just 3 weeks away from this Sunday, expect WWE to tease a few more high profile clashes for May 19, this Monday night.

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

#3 Bray Wyatt's Firefly Fun House segment starts getting darker and darker

Bray Wyatt returned with a new character last week on Raw

The long awaited and highly anticipated return of the Eater of the Worlds, Bray Wyatt, happened on the last episode of Raw. And it would not be wrong to say that nobody had expected what unfolded.

Yes, Bray Wyatt returned with a children-friendly Firefly Fun House and went on to introduce us to his two friends, Mercy the buzzard and Abby the witch doll.

Nonetheless, as the segment continued Bray went on to destroy the cardboard cut out of his old self with a chainsaw, revealing a dark and sinister side of himself. And what initially felt like that a huge WWE goof-up suddenly transformed into something more.

Thus, there is no denying the fact that this new character of Bray is complex and has several layers beneath it. And one could quite easily imagine his segments getting darker and darker in the coming weeks.

While the friendly and happy go lucky nature of his was on full display last week, expect the dark and sinister side to start taking over that persona in the upcoming days.

#2 Tensions and differences take the centre stage when Seth Rollins and AJ Styles are forced to team up for a tag team match

It could very well be on the cards

The Phenomenal AJ Styles reigned supreme in what could be called as mini-tournament, last week on Raw, to earn a shot at the Universal Championship against Seth Rollins at Money In the Bank. Given the magnitude of the match plus the stature of both the superstars, it was not expected that WWE would give us a dream match between the duo this early at Money In the Bank.

However, WWE went on to give us a surprise, and it would not be wrong to say that Vince McMahon has finally started listening to the fans.

On another note, given Money in the Bank is not that far away, expect WWE to start building up the feud right away. Yes, given the fact that both are currently being portrayed as babyfaces, the upcoming episode could feature WWE teaming up the duo in a tag team match to create confusion leading to tension and differences between the duo.

Also, personally, I feel that a potential heel turn for any of the two could very well be on the cards for Money In the Bank as it is highly unlikely that WWE is going to end this feud on May 19. Thus, the upcoming episode may lay down the breadcrumbs for the same.

#1 The Raw participants for Money In the Bank Men's and Women's Ladder match

Alex Bliss will feature this week on Raw with her special segment 'A Moment of Bliss'

WWE has already announced it is advance that Alexa Bliss will announce the Raw participants for Money in the Bank Men's and Women's ladder match during her special 'A Moment of Bliss' segment on the upcoming episode of Raw.

Barring a few spots in both Men's and Women's team, the rest of the names are more or less predictable. Also, according to the latest rumour, WWE has been advertising Rey Mysterio, Drew McIntyre, Cesaro, and Ricochet as Raw's participants for the Men's Money in the Bank ladder match.

Thus, all these names are on expected terms however, it would be interesting to see how will the Women's ladder match shape up.

While the likes of Ruby Riot, Sarah Logan and Naomi look very likely to get a spot on the Raw Women's participants for MITB, it would be interesting to see whether Alexa Bliss announces herself as the fourth and final member to conclude her special segment.
