With Monday Night Raw genuinely picking up pace after Triple H introduced four of NXT's hottest sensations to the main roster, Roman Reigns' blockbuster return to the squared circle acts as a perfect icing on the cake.

It's a good time to be an optimistic wrestling fan. After delivering a solid episode last week, a progressive WWE management would be looking to make a gigantic statement tonight on the red brand.

Since The Big Dog's advertisement has taken much of the spotlight and rightfully so, one wonders what the former Universal Champion has in store as he returns to provide an update over his ongoing battle with Leukemia.

There's absolutely no denying that the inclusion of NXT performers has ascended in-ring quality and with Vince McMahon avoiding a one-off situation now with the four hot sensations, there's a genuine possibility that something big could be in the works.

Moreover, the company will also be diverting the spotlight on the newly crowned Women's Tag-Team Champions Sasha Banks and Bayley, with legions in the WWE Universe expecting Trish Stratus and Lita to bring the fight to the Champions.

Braun Strowman's solid victory over Baron Corbin last week intertwined with a determined Drew Mcintyre wanting to make statements every single week en route to WrestleMania 35, we might really have a shocking Monday Night Raw on the cards this week.

So, without further ado, let's dive deep and analyze the 5 legitimate ways to guarantee a shocking Monday Night Raw.


#1 Becky Lynch embarrasses Vince McMahon and Charlotte during Ric Flair's birthday celebration

Given the circumstances that surround the company ahead of the Grandest Stage of Them All, there's bound to be a point when Becky Lynch coerces The McMahon Family to put her back in the main event spot at WrestleMania 35.

The question here is with WWE throwing out such a huge birthday celebration for Ric Flair, would this be an ideal opportunity for The Relentless One to make a solid statement as the company prepares for it's biggest event.

It's understandable that Becky will eventually be inserted into the main event of WrestleMania 35, but with the McMahon's acting as a roadblock in her journey, Ric Flair's birthday celebrations seems like an ideal time to get things right.

Considering that Charlotte Flair and The McMahon Family could grace this occasion, the creative team could be preparing for a shocking segment, with The Man hijacking Ric's birthday celebrations

Locking Vince McMahon into submission or embarrassing The McMahon's in front of a global audience would be enough to gravitate the mainstream attention and propel Becky to unimaginable heights.

Moreover, Charlotte's inclusion in the segment could also lead to the Queen suffering the wrath of a savage assault from The Man.

#2 Aleister Black promises to fade Finn Balor to black after earning a shot at the Intercontinental Championship

Would this be iconic?
Would this be iconic?

After Vince McMahon brought four familiar NXT sensations on the main roster, legions in the WWE Universe were skeptical about their push going forward into WrestleMania 35.

While the presentation has been exceptional, it's about time that the creative team brings some spotlight on it's next PPV, Fastlane.

Finn Balor's hard-earned victory over Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush has catapulted him as the Intercontinental Champion on Monday Night Raw, but with competition continuing to increase on a weekly basis, we could see someone challenging the former NXT Champion for the gold soon.

Despite seeing Ricochet join hands with Balor on the former's debut, Aleister Black could very well earn a title opportunity and go on to tussle it out with the First-Ever Universal Champion.

Both the superstars are incredibly proficient in the ring and could very well a solid program going in to the Grandest Stage of Them All where we could finally see 'The Black Mass' lock horns with 'The Demon King'.

#3 Drew Mcintyre promises to make a statement at WrestleMania 35 and warns The Undertaker and John Cena

Are we ready for this one?
Are we ready for this one?

With Drew Mcintyre reportedly suffering an injury scare at a live event, it would be ideal for the WWE to book him in a stand alone segment on Monday Night Raw.

Since the Scottish Terminator has vowed to make statements every single week, the former NXT Champion could possibly shock us all and challenge a legend for a blockbuster clash at WrestleMania 35.

There's no denying that Mcintyre has shared his bits of animosity with John Cena and with the Cenation Leader likely to return for a collision at the Show of Shows, the Prodigal Son fares as an ideal antagonist.

A genuine reason why I feel that the Scottish Sensation could pull off something like this is because of the disrespect he has shown to part-time performers and his drive to become the top guy could come at the expense of someone like the Undertaker or John Cena.

Addressing the two legends definitely brings the spotlight on Mcintyre and keeps both the Phenom and the Cenation Leader in a pivotal spot for a match at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

#4 The Hounds of Justice reunite in front of a deafening audience

With Roman Reigns now advertised to give a major update on his condition on Monday Night Raw, legions of fans have expressed their thoughts of seeing the Hounds of Justice reunite tonight.

Considering that the Lunatic Fringe has been showing signs of a potential recovery from his villainous role, Vince McMahon could push the idea of the Shield joining forces again in front of a deafening crowd.

It's understandable that it will be all guns blazing tonight on the red brand and with Seth Rollins also preparing for the biggest match of his life, Roman's inclusion in the frame would bring more spotlight on the Architect.

While there's a minute possibility of The Big Dog only giving an update and not returning as an active performer, the world will be watching the former Universal Champion tonight.

Reuniting the Shield would be an absolutely fantastic idea and with Roman likely to announce his in-ring return tonight, Monday Night Raw would only get better.

#5 Triple H tells the newly recruited NXT Superstars on the main roster to prepare for 'Takeover'

Is this the right time?
Is this the right time?

With WrestleMania 35 just around the corner, the creative team definitely needs something exciting and intriguing to keep the fans hooked to the edge of their seats.

The introduction of four of the biggest NXT superstars have caught the world's attention and while they are now a mainstay on the main roster, many are believing that this could be the start of a possible revolution.

The Cerebral Assassin has played an influential role in putting NXT on the global map, and with four of his top performers now running riot on both the brands, this could be an ideal time for Hunter to coerce them for a possible 'takeover'.

An invasion storyline could excel on Monday Night Raw, with Triple H wanting to take command of both the brands. This could also play well after the Shield reunite on Monday Night Raw.

The prospect of seeing an angle this certainly chills my spine and with Vince McMahon genuinely bringing the spotlight on these NXT performers, we could see something shocking tonight.
