The Revival returned on Monday Night Raw this past week in a match against former SmackDown Tag Team Champions Heath Slater and Rhyno. Once again, The Shatter Machine secured the win for the popular duo as their rumoured push could finally be about to happen after months of injury issues between the duo.
The Revival were once the hottest commodity on the NXT roster but ever since they were called up to Raw the night after WrestleMania 33 back in April, they have been plagued by injuries which have prevented the talented duo from being able to reach their full potential on the main roster.
2018 could be the year for The Revival to take over and there are many different opponents that help put them over throughout the next 12 months.
#5 Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows
Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows have only been part of the WWE roster for just over a year and it seems that the novelty has already worn off. The Club has been one of the most underutilised teams on the Raw roster over the past few months, so, a feud with a team like The Revival could be exactly what they need.
Gallows and Anderson have won Tag Team Championships all over the world but it seems that they have struggled to remain relevant in WWE over the past year. Not only could The Revival learn from working with a team who has the experience of The Club, but Gallows and Anderson could gain some much-needed TV time from a feud with Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder.
#4 The Bar
It has to happen. At some point in the next year, The Revival will be given a shot at the Raw Tag Team Championships and if Cesaro and Sheamus think that they are the only stars who rely on brute force in the ring, then they are very much mistaken.
A feud between The Bar and The Revival would be an epic collision. The two teams are very similar when it comes to styles in the ring and this could well be one of the biggest tests Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder have ever faced. It would be interesting to see how the duo reacts to a team who is so similar to them as well as seeing if WWE will allow them to become Champions on the main brand over the next 12 months.
#3 The Ascension
Much like The Revival, The Ascension were once one of the most popular tag teams in NXT and still hold the record as the longest reigning Tag Team Champions in the history of the brand.
The duo could have remained undrafted in the 2016 WWE draft and perhaps had a better career than they have on SmackDown Live. It's sad to see the former Champions being overlooked in favour of teams who they could easily have overcome.
A switch over to Raw wouldn't affect SmackDown at all and would allow them to face a team like The Revival in a feud that would definitely put The Ascension back on track.
#2 The Authors Of Pain
The Revival's final NXT match back in April was at NXT Takeover: Orlando where they failed to capture the NXT Tag Team Championships in a triple threat match that also featured The Authors of Pain and #DIY.
The Authors of Pain have been dominant throughout their time in NXT and are due to be called up to the main roster anytime soon, even though SmackDown is thought to be their destination.
If WWE does decide to bring Akam and Rezar to Raw instead, it would be wise to allow them to continue the feud that they already started with The Revival earlier this year.
#1 The Hardyz
Matt Hardy is currently locked in a feud with Bray Wyatt whilst Jeff Hardy recovers from a shoulder injury, but in a few months time it could be a completely different story and one of the most decorated tag teams in WWE history could be working as a duo again.
Back in July, The Revival attacked The Hardy Boys and were embroiled in a three-way feud with The Hardys and Gallows and Anderson but when Dawson suffered a ruptured bicep a few weeks later, an injury that would keep him out of action for almost five months, the WWE Universe were never able to see where the feud could go.
There is a lot that Dawson and Wilder could learn from The Hardy Boys if they were given a feud with them moving forward and it would definitely be a popular idea with the WWE Universe.
