This week’s Raw saw the WWE Creatives pull off a much welcomed surprised on the fans. The B-Team were the Raw Tag Team Champions but they were not helping the ratings and relevance of the title on the brand. Their scheduled championship match with The Revival was torn apart by Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre.
The duo attacked The Revival backstage and took their place in the championship match. B-Team put on their best performance to date but ended up losing the titles to The Showoff and The Scottish Psychopath. This has turned the Raw tag team scene upside down.
With many new and old Superstars on Raw who could come after the titles, there seem to be three particular tag teams who deserve the title more than the others. Who will challenge Ziggler and McIntyre for the titles in the weeks to come?
#3 The Revival
Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson, famously known as The Revival, are one of the best tag teams on the red brand. The two have been impressive in NXT, and since their debut on Raw in 2017, they have beaten teams like The New Day and Gallows and Anderson, to prove that they are championship material.
It seemed like they were on their way to winning the gold this week on Raw before they were assaulted backstage by Ziggler and McIntyre who later took their place in the tag team title match against the B-Team. Ziggler and McIntyre went on to win the championships, adding salt to the wounds of The Revival.
Since the Revival was in red-hot form before the attack, it seems likely that they will get their hands on Ziggler and McIntyre sooner than later. This could provide them with the opportunity of winning a championship on the main roster for the first time.
#2 The Authors of Pain
The team which is composed of Akam and Rezar is ruthless, to say the least. Both the men have been NXT tag team champions in the past and have the strength to wipe out any tag team that crosses their path. Surprisingly, the two men have been involved in worthless storylines since their arrival to Raw.
After finding a new manager and voice in the form of Drake Maverick, the duo should now be pulled away from the squash matches they’ve been involved in and catapulted to championship bouts.
Akam and Rezar have the potential to carry the Red Brand’s tag team division on their shoulders and provide great entertainment while doing so. The two deserve the tag team championships more than Ziggler and McIntyre who are already booked in high profile matches and don’t really need the titles to prove their worth.
#1 The Shield
Seth Rollins is the Intercontinental Champion while Roman Reigns is the Universal Champion. Dean Ambrose recently returned from an injury to make The Shield complete. Now it’s very possible that the WWE would want to put the gold around The Lunatic Fringe’s waist too.
The Shield is currently involved in a bitter rivalry with the current tag team champions and Braun Strowman. If the rivalry continues for the months to come, it is highly likely that Rollins and Ambrose will get their chance to dethrone Ziggler and McIntyre before or after the WWE Super Show-Down.
Since all the men are already involved in a storyline, it seems like The Shield will be the ones who will take the championship away from Ziggler and McIntyre. Without a doubt, this could result in some of the best matches of 2018.
