With just two weeks left before Hell in a Cell, both RAW and SmackDown are building up various feuds for the upcoming pay-per-view. After a great show at Clash of Champions, the company has hinted at several new feuds and also continued some old rivalries.

RAW delivered an action packed show with multiple appearances from Bray Wyatt. The Fiend terrorized again, ambushing the 'Devil's Favorite Demon', Kane. The King of the Ring winner was also finally crowned, as Baron Corbin bested Chad Gable for the throne.

SmackDown Live certainly hyped its debut on FOX, as Brock Lesnar made an appearance and challenged Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship. The show is establishing momentum before making its FOX debut on October 4th.

With all the great things WWE has done lately, it's important that they avoid making some key mistakes in the weeks ahead.

Join us as we discuss three things WWE should not do on RAW and SmackDown Live this week.

#3 Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan shouldn't get dominated again

Last week, Roman Reigns had a hard time, which is definitely an unusual sight for 'The Big Dog.' Reigns lost a highly anticipated match against Erick Rowan at Clash of Champions and was also decimated by The Bludgeon Brothers on SmackDown Live. Daniel Bryan, who has played an indispensable role in this storyline, was also assaulted by Luke Harper and Erick Rowan.

There is no doubt that the return of Luke Harper has taken the feud to the next level. In fact, he was the main reason why Erick Rowan managed to pin Reigns at Clash of Champions.

Given the recent alliance between Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan, they are expected to face The Bludgeon Brothers. Reigns and Bryan, however need to gain momentum, especially considering Hell in a Cell is not far away. If WWE wants to hype the rivalry, Reigns and Bryan need to stand tall this week, avoid yet another assault, and assert themselves as a dominant duo capable of competing against Harper and Rowan.

#2 Aleister Black and Buddy Murphy shouldn't be absent from TV

While SmackDown Live has been delivering exciting episodes every week, two notable Superstars have been absent from the show. Aleister Black and Buddy Murphy haven't been featured on TV in recent weeks, but the fans would love to see them in the squared circle. Neither of the two had a match Clash of Champions, so its important that they participate in the upcoming Hell in a Cell pay-per-view.

Aleister Black's last match was against Shelton Benjamin a couple of weeks ago and the Dutch Destroyer picked up an easy win. After his feud with Cesaro, Black is still searching for a credible opponent.

Murphy, on the other hand, has been missing since losing his King of the Ring match to Ali. The former Cruiserweight Champion was in the spotlight after getting involved in the Roman Reigns storyline. Muphy proved his quality and displayed his overall potential by defeating Daniel Bryan a few weeks ago.

These two Superstars are talented performers, and they need to find opponents before the big FOX debut. Whenever Black and Murphy have competed on the Blue Brand, they always stole the show with their dexterity in the ring. In fact, it would be mind blowing, if Murphy knocks on the Aleister Black's door and starts a new rivalry with 'The Dutch Destroyer.'

#1 Bayley and Charlotte Flair shouldn't be involved in the RAW Women's Championship storyline

The RAW Women's Championship storyline between Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks has been intriguing. The two women locked horns at Clash of Champions and Lynch retained the title by disqualification. Without a shadow of a doubt, it was the match of the night. While the feud has been outstanding, Charlotte Flair and Bayley have also been involved in this rivalry.

It is clear that WWE has big plans with the involvement of all Four Horsewomen, but Bayley and Charlotte Flair have their own feud. In fact, 'The Hugger' and 'The Queen' fought at Clash of Champions, with Flair losing in her own home town.

Last week, Bayley and Sasha Banks beat the Women's Tag Team Champions, Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross, on RAW. After winning the match, 'The Boss' started to assault Cross until 'The Man' came to her rescue. When she saw that her former best friend was outnumbered by Bayley and Banks, Charlotte Flair made her way to the ring to save the day.

A rematch between Lynch and Banks is set, and the two Superstars will wrestle inside a steel cage at Hell in a Cell. With just two weeks left before the mega clash, further involvement from Charlotte and Bayley could diminish the quality of the feud. Instead, fans should be allowed to relish two potential future WWE Hall of Famers engaging one on one in what could go down as one of the year's best feuds.
