5 Surprises That Could Happen On RAW This Week

#2 Bobby Roode finally turns on Chad Gable

Could we see NXT's heel Bobby Roode emerge once again?

Can we all agree that the most relevant that Roode has been during his WWE run is when he was in NXT? Sure, he was the US Champion during his run in SmackDown Live, but we all know that he's not naturally at his best, with the goofy grin he has plastered on his face these days. Roode is generally at his best when he's both devious and menacing.

Just log into the WWE Network and check out his feud with Roderick Strong on NXT, if you missed out on just how good he can be as a heel. Coming back to the situation at hand, we saw Bobby Roode upset with the whole Chad Gable situation last week. It does seem like a heel turn is quite inevitable for Roode.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

A heel vs. Gable feud could elevate both men? At least, they would not have to job to The Ascension every week.
