WWE brings Monday Night RAW to Madison Square Garden next week and if we don't all already know by now, you can guarantee that when WWE hits MSG they are going to put on a show. Which is why Stone Cold Steve Austin will be returning to officiate the contract signing between Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman for the Universal Title, as the 'Texas Rattlesnake' tweeted himself, and then WWE confirmed.
The contract signing between those two men definitely needs someone to moderate proceedings as the contract signing was supposed to happen on this week's episode of Monday Night RAW but things got a little heated between the current Raw Tag-Team Champions and world title adversaries, before they were completely thrown out by the OC interrupting.
But what if the contract signing segment was a way to bring several disparate elements of upcoming storylines together? What if 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt chooses then to make his presence felt?
Here are 5 signs that The Fiend could interrupt Stone Cold's contract signing on next week's Monday Night Raw in Madison Square Garden.
#5 The Hell in a Cell match
Golden 1 Center tweeted that Bray Wyatt was challenging Seth Rollins or Braun Strowman to a Hell in a Cell match on August 27th and everyone immediately assumed that a huge mistake had been made and that someone on the Golden 1 Center's social media team had jumped the gun.
But Braun Strowman acknowledged the tweet and seemingly accepted 'The Fiend's challenge to a match in the Satanic Structure. Interestingly Strowman also vaguely acknowledged his storied past with Wyatt.
As you can see Bray Wyatt responded calling Strowman 'Baby Boy' and indicated that he would go to any lengths.
If Rollins and Strowman are having a contract signing and 'The Fiend' is gunning for a match with either of them at Hell in a Cell it makes sense that he might make his presence felt for that contract signing next week.

#4 It was teased on Firefly Funhouse
Bray Wyatt's latest Firefly Funhouse episode featured the children's entertainer television host part of Bray's character get interrupted by the Vince McMahon puppet who criticised Wyatt for challenging Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins to a match at Hell in a Cell.
However Wyatt stopped 'Vince' in his tracks and fed him money that he'd made to keep him happy. He then went on to tell Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins that they have something that's 'dear' to him and that he would 'see [them] in hell'.
If this episode of Firefly Funhouse doesn't spell that Wyatt will get involved with Rollins and Strowman sooner rather than later then I don't know what does.
I also think there's a small chance that Wyatt referring to teams might also be a sneaky hint of things to come for Survivor Series.
#3 He likes attacking legends
With the exception of Finn Balor, who Wyatt went on to have a match with, The Fiends victims have all been WWE legends who aren't active in the ring anymore - Kurt Angle, Mick Foley and Jerry Lawler.
So, with one of WWE's biggest ever Superstars and iconic legend Stone Cold Steve Austin in the house for RAW at Madison Square Garden, there's good money to be made on betting that 'The Texas Rattlesnake' will find himself on the receiving end of a surprise Mandible Claw by the time the episode has finished.
Plus there's the added element of making a huge statement whilst Stone Cold Steve Austin is in the close proximity of the two men that The Fiend could be facing at Hell in a Cell - Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman.
Just imagine their horrified faces as they look on while The Fiend attacks Stone Cold.
#4 It's Madison Square Garden
As mentioned in the introduction, WWE is at Madison Square Garden for the first time in a while and they're going to want to make a big impression and get the whole world talking about Monday Night RAW being taped there again.
As it happens I feel one of the best ways to make that happen is to give the WWE Universe a shocking moment that everyone will remember for a long time, and The Fiend attacking Stone Cold Steve Austin will certainly do the job.
This also feels like the neatest way to tie in the disparate elements of these story-lines and bring them together in a way that makes sense and helps build towards that WWE Hell in a Cell match in front of, what should be, one of the hottest wrestling crowds there is.
#5 The Fiend needs to choose his HIAC opponent
So there are a few ways this could go down. The Fiend might way until Clash of Champions to see who wins the Universal Title and then challenge that person. He might cost one of Seth Rollins or Braun Strowman the match and then challenge that person without the title.
He could even interrupt the whole match and throw the whole result out, leading to a Triple Threat Hell in a Cell match featuring all three men (This is my favourite scenario as I think it'd lead to one of the most insane WWE matches ever).
Or, there's a strong chance Wyatt makes his presence felt next week on Monday Night RAW and indicates exactly who it is he'll be facing at Hell in a Cell regardless of whether they're the Universal Champion or not when the dust has settled post Clash of Champions.
