Expectations are always sky-high from the WWE RAW after a pay-per-view, and it wasn't different this time. We were witnesses to a great show this week, with some impressive segments that were enjoyable throughout the show.

The Red Brand was all about Bray Wyatt this week. With his alter ego The Fiend, Bray Wyatt made his presence felt a number of times on RAW. An interesting storyline began when The Street Profits hosted the Gender Reveal Party for Maria Kanellis. Former US Champion Rusev made his return as he decimated Maria's husband, Mike Kanellis on the back of a strong storyline.

Moreover, Kane's appearance was one of the highlights of RAW this week as he was the latest victim to fall prey to The Fiend's vicious attacks as the storylines continued to gradually progress towards Hell in a Cell next month.

Overall, the show was of top-class quality and here we discuss three things WWE made clear on RAW this week.

#3 Cedric Alexander will continue his feud with AJ Styles

Cedric Alexander had a difficult night at Clash of Champions, where he was comprehensively beaten by the US Champion, AJ Styles. The two men crossed paths again in a six-man tag team match on RAW as Cedric teamed up with Viking Raisers to take on The OC.

Yet again, The Phenomenal One picked up a win for his team, pinning Cedric Alexander and from this, one thing became clear that the rivalry between Cedric and Styles is far from over, and Cedric will get another title shot.

Since the feud didn't get the time to develop the storyline before the Clash of Champions, the buildup could be better for a rematch. The former Cruiserweight Champion is one of the best high-flyers of the company, and he has the potential of producing outstanding matches with The Phenomenal One.

Styles and Cedric failed to deliver a high-quality match at Clash of Champions and could be in line for a massive fued in the coming weeks.

#2 WWE has big plans for Baron Corbin

The final match of the King of the Ring tournament was scheduled to take place at Clash of Champions, but it was eventually moved to RAW. Chad Gable and Baron Corbin, who were the final two competitors to reach the final, had a stupendous match on RAW.

A large number of fans were rooting for Gable, as he was an underdog from the start of the tournament. Yet, even after overcoming several hurdles, Gable could not go past Baron Corbin.

The tournament brought out Corbin's best as he defeated some notable names to win the crown. Corbin picked up a victory over the eight-time Intercontinental Champion, The Miz, in the very first round and subsequently he beat Cedric Alexander in the quarter-final. However, Cornin faced a huge task in the semifinal of the tournament as he faced off against Samoa Joe and Ricochet in a triple threat match but was on top of his game to clinch a win.

After the King of the Ring victory, it is clear that WWE has big plans for Corbin. He is already one of the most captivating heels of the Red Brand, and he manages to create quite a bit of heat in the ring and outside the ring. Corbin was in the Universal Title picture earlier, and it is possible that King Corbin could be back in the title picture within a few months.

#1 Kane could get involved in the Universal Title match at Hell in a Cell

Kane returned to RAW after a long time this week. While he appeared as the Mayor of Knox Country, he also showed up as a Demon King at the end of the show. As a matter of fact, Kane also won the 24/7 Title on RAW, before losing it back to R-Truth.

When Seth Rollins was outnumbered by The OC, Dolph Ziggler, and Robert Roode, Kane came out to rescue the Universal Champion. After saving Rollins from the beatdown, Kane was attacked by The Fiend, which was one of the best moments of RAW this week.

Although The Fiend assaulted several legends in the past, the scenario could be different this time. Kane helped Rollins to defend the WWE Title successfully a couple of times when the latter had a lengthy title reign in 2015. Hence, the possibility of Kane's involvement can not be ruled out at Hell in a Cell.

Rollins has significant momentum after slaying the Beast and the Monster consecutively. The Fiend, on the other hand, is the hottest thing in WWE right now, and he has no chance to lose. If Kane interferes the Universal Championship match at Hell in a Cell, it could lead to disqualification, and Rollins could fight The Fiend again at Survivor Series, which is one of the biggest pay-per-views of WWE.
