5 Biggest Things WWE Secretly Told Us On Monday Night Raw

Things are getting a little tense
Things are getting a little tense

In what was a more predictable presentation of Monday Night Raw, there's no denying that tonight's episode can be appropriately renamed as Monday Night Becky.

While WWE did try to put their best foot forward and deliver something special, much of the show felt predictable and failed to elevate any element of rejuvenation.

Monday Night Raw saw two of the most highly graded competitors in the world in Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins make their way to the top and while the latter may not have had a large proportion of screen time, the Architect's intensity was on point tonight.

WWE also gave us another preview for the First-Ever Women's Tag-Team Championship match with Nia Jax and Tamina justifying their prowess as the most dominating team heading into the barbaric Elimination Chamber match.

We saw a big title change tonight with the Revival finally capturing the Raw tag-team Championships after being vehemently disorganized for the entirety of 2018.

Considering that Becky Lynch remained an influential part of the show tonight, Vince McMahon's late inclusion into this angle and the eventual suspension of the Man saw Charlotte getting her way into the main event of WrestleMania 35.

Regardless of what transpired, there are still a lot of things that the company tried to tell us vicariously through some of their segments and matches tonight. What were they? Let's find out.

Here are the 5 biggest things WWE secretly told us on Monday Night Raw.


#1 Roll-ups are the only way to keep this feud going

This is turning disappointing already
This is turning disappointing already

Despite being two of the most proficient superstars in the entire wrestling industry, Dean Ambrose and EC3 have failed to gravitate any significant attention with their current animosity.

While many perceived the NXT sensation to bring his unending charisma to the main roster, the creative team have not provided any substantial time for EC3 to hijack the spotlight.

The two tussled it out again tonight and while both the superstars do have solid in-ring prowess, the match ended pretty predictably and would only coerce the management to stretch it by the time WrestleMania rolls up.

It's a damn shame that Dean Ambrose has no momentum on the Road to WrestleMania 35 and with a roll-up victory tonight, we can only expect the company to keep this program going until we have a clear winner.

#2 Kevin Owens would return with one hell of a transformation

No more Prizefighter?

There's no denying that Kevin Owens is one of the most compelling heels to ever grace Vince McMahon's billion dollar corporation.

The former Intercontinental Champion had been sidelined with a double knee injury which has coerced Monday Night Raw to continue without its most entertaining character.

While the company did initially tease us with a Kevin Owens returns soon video package, the Prizefighter has finally given us an update about his likely return and where he may eventually land up.

Having displayed his disposition as a total family man, Owens is locked in to return a month from now which could see him have an influence on the WrestleMania card, but the former Universal Champion is still unsure of where he may land up.

Since this was probably the first time that Owens was presented in such fashion to the WWE Universe on live television, it genuinely seems like Vince McMahon wants to bring a serious alteration in his character going forward.

#3 Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns could help Seth Rollins slay the Beast Incarnate at WrestleMania

That's not a prediction
That's not a prediction

I'm genuinely excited to see how the entire Seth RollinsBrock Lesnar feud for the Universal Championship will pan out, and with the Architect refusing to step down, we could have a legitimate classic in our hands.

The Kingslayer showed up on Raw tonight and gave an insight into his intensity before being rudely interrupted by the Mad Scientist of Professional Wrestling, Paul Heyman,

While Heyman dropped a spoiler on what will transpire at the Grandest Stage of Them All, Dean Ambrose's surprise inclusion in the segment left many surprised.

The Lunatic Fringe quickly went to his Shield brother and told him to 'Slay the Beast' which coerced legions of WWE fans to believe that the company may be presenting Ambrose in a different light come WrestleMania 35.

Considering that Roman Reigns has shared a fierce rivalry with Brock Lesnar before, there's a certain possibility that the trio could reunite at the Show of Shows and turn the Architect's dream into a reality.

#4 Drew Mcintyre and Bobby Lashley will save Corbin this Sunday

With the creative team continuing to present Braun Strowman as a force to be reckoned with, Drew Mcintyre and Baron Corbin's recent alliance could very well see Lashley on their side very soon.

Considering that it was Lashley who ambushed Finn Balor in the former NXT Champion's match against Mcintyre tonight, the savage assault coerced Braun Strowman and Kurt Angle to make their way to the ring.

It's pretty disappointing that WWE have not been able to bring an element of rejuvenation in the main event picture for a while and judging by what transpired tonight, there's a genuine possibility that we already know what will happen at the Elimination Chamber.

Since Braun Strowman is now scheduled to lock horns with Baron Corbin at the event, Mcintyre and Lashley could play an integral role in the bout and eventually save him from the Monster's wrath.

This would only turn the Monster Among Men to continue chasing them until WrestleMania where Vince McMahon may finally conclude this predictable story.

#5 Becky Lynch is walking the same line Daniel Bryan did in 2014

Becky has to be presented as an underdog

While legions of fans may feel that the company is overutilizing Becky Lynch on the main roster, there's no denying that Vince McMahon is trying to present her as an underdog.

Since Becky Lynch has had a hard time reaching to the top of the industry, the company is willing to tap into her potential and maximize their investment in her as the most compelling female performer to ever step between those ropes.

With the McMahon Family now inserting Charlotte into the main event, it seems that Becky Lynch could literally be walking the same line as Daniel Bryan did in 2014.

Considering that almost all the fans wanted Bryan to fight for his dreams at the Show of Shows, we could also see Becky probably going through the Authority to earn her way back into the Showcase of the Immortals.

There's no denying that the Man has been clinical in her overall presentation, she is definitely garnering a lot of sympathy from the fans en route the biggest match of her entire life.
