In what was perhaps one of the most stacked Royal Rumble card in recent history, WWE brought everything they had to the table, with the sole purpose of entertaining the fans.

After facing criticism due to their booking of the Royal Rumble matches, the creative team left no stone upturned in giving the fans what they desperately wanted to see.

Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch are now the top contenders who have punched their ticket to the main event of WrestleMania 35 by winning both their respective Royal Rumble matches.

With both competitors now looking forward to MetLife Stadium, WWE will advance the narrative for the Grandest Stage of Them All with another blockbuster edition of Monday Night Raw.

Considering that several tops would be in contention to show up tonight, the fans will genuinely have their hopes up after what transpired at the Royal Rumble.

So without further ado, lets dive deep and analyze the 5 biggest things WWE could be planning for Monday Night Raw.


#1 Drew McIntyre destroys Braun Strowman and Dolph Ziggler

Drew McIntyre's quest to reach to the top of the food chain has seen a major roadblock after the former NXT Champion was eliminated out of the Royal Rumble by Dolph Ziggler.

Since the Scottish Terminator shares a lot of history with the Show-Off, there's a genuine possibility that he could take out all his frustrations on the former World Champion on Monday Night Raw.

Vince McMahon understands what McIntyre brings to the squared circle, and could use his dominating presence to perfection by absolutely destroying Dolph Ziggler tonight.

Another superstar who could have a one-on-one with McIntyre is the Monster Among Men, Braun Strowman, who failed to stay on his feet for long after Seth Rollins took advantage of the situation and eliminated him out of the Royal Rumble.

Considering that Braun Strowman and Drew McIntyre could tell a solid story together, these two behemoths need to clash tonight in order to keep the momentum going for WrestleMania 35.

#2 Triple H and Paul Heyman warn Seth Rollins about Brock Lesnar

Will this happen?
Will this happen?

After tossing 29 other opponents out of the equation, Seth Rollins has punched his ticket to the Grandest Stage of Them All in MetLife Stadium, New Jersey.

His incredible body of work and determination has earned him a reputation of being one of the best in the business, and he is now the favorite to walk out of WrestleMania 35 as the Universal Champion.

However, the Beast Incarnate is a different animal. The Architect definitely has to unleash every bit of aggression inside him to get the better off the Mayor of Suplex City.

Triple H has always been vocal about his adulation for Rollins, and the Game could play a consequential role in pushing the former Intercontinental Champion to the top of the industry.

Paul Heyman and the Game warning Rollins about what he is in for could be an incredible way to get this feud started, with Vince impressively booking another underdog tale.

#3 Becky Lynch challenges Ronda Rousey and tells Vince McMahon that she will close WrestleMania 35

This could be intense

Becky Lynch has ascended to become one of the most compelling stories in professional wrestling history, and the Relentless One deserves all the credit she gets.

Despite the fact that she tapped out to Asuka in an engaging thriller, The Man brought the house down when she took Lana's spot, entered the ring, and booked a ticket to write her own destiny at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Charlotte's impressive performance fell short after Becky eventually tossed her out of the match, and possibly the main event of WrestleMania 35.

Since the former SmackDown Women's Champion is now free to choose the Champion of her choice, she could definitely bring the fire to Monday Night Raw tonight.

Challenging Ronda Rousey for the Raw Women's Championship, followed by a confrontation with Vince McMahon could be solid enough to bring Becky Lynch to the frame on the red brand tonight.

#4 Finn Balor locks horns with Dean Ambrose for the first time in WWE

Will Finn emerge victorious?

After coming so close to defeating Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at the Royal Rumble, Finn Balor could be looking to get the momentum on his side tonight.

Considering that the management still doesn't believe in the first-ever Universal Champion, the Extraordinary Man could look to prove them wrong tonight by facing a villainous heel.

While Bobby Lashley could work well as an engaging competitor for Finn tonight, it would make more sense if he goes on to lock horns with the Lunatic Fringe, Dean Ambrose.

This is a match the fans would certainly like to see, considering how terrible the former Intercontinental Champion is being presented at the moment on the red brand.

Both competitors giving us a solid bout to close the show would give Balor the spotlight he deserves, and would keep Ambrose in the limelight as well.

#5 Sasha Banks and Bayley vow to win the Women's Tag-Team Championships

After delivering one of the most impressive performances of her entire career, Sasha Banks could be in line for a major push on Monday Night Raw.

Considering that the inception of the Women's Tag-Team Championships has brought some rejuvenation to the women's division, the preparations could very well start from tonight.

Something like this could also involve Stephanie McMahon returning to the frame and confronting the entire women's division on the red brand, telling them to find their own suitable better halves for the spot.

Since Sasha Banks and Bayley are the favorites to walk out of MetLife Stadium as the Women's Tag-Team Champions, presenting them in this spotlight could be incredible.

Both competitors have suffered the wrath of creative booking on Raw, and this could be the time when the company actually brings some serious alteration to their product.
