WWE Raw happens in a day, and whether you love or hate the product, you can't deny the fact that the company has gone above and beyond to make every story compelling, and make it worth your time. Vince and his team have swerved the fans last week on Smackdown, by making one of the contenders in the Wrestlemania Main event match, a champion. However, that doesn't take away the intensity and the buildup from one of the biggest storylines in women's history, instead, it enhances it.

On the other hand, the Universal Champion was nowhere to be seen last week on Raw, but he may very well be on the show this week. With the shots being fired by all involved in various storylines, and a lot at stake for the WWE, here are 5 things that can happen on Monday Nights for the company:

#5 Who gets the upper hand in Intercontinental Championship storyline?

Who takes the fight?
Who takes the fight?

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

Finn Bálor and Bobby Lashley have been going at this championship since the former lost the title to the latter few weeks ago. The two have another person in the storyline, Lio Rush, who will have a major role to play during next week's show and on Sunday.

With the two performers taking down the Irish superstar and the leader of the Balor Club, two things are certain: One that Finn will win the title at Mania, and second, Lio Rush will help him win that. This sets the pace for an amazing storyline, but what will happen next? Well, we will have to wait until it commences and shows up on WWE Programming.

However, this week it will be good to see how the two fight it out in the ring, and make their storyline better. Who attacks whom, and will this lead to some turns at Wrestlemania?

#4 Six Women Tag Team Match

Fight it out
Fight it out

This may sound like a hyped match, but it doesn't really entice fans, because let's face it, a bout between the three women headlining Wrestlemania has been seen in multiple proportions and at multiple times. It is also an example that the two teams in this match, are filling time. When Ruby Riot had a match at Elimination Chamber, she didn't get the hype, and now it seems they are using this match and team the wrong way.

With such a scenario in place, you need to just enjoy this segment and match, only for the three to hit each other as hard as they can, and nothing more than that at all. Charlotte is already the Smackdown Women's Champion, while Becky Lynch is doing everything to make her match with Ronda Rousey a good one. This could be the final time we see Ronda Rousey in the ring as the Raw Women's Champion, so it is a big deal, and you should just look into it, the same same way.

#3 High-Flying submission match

Match the standards
Match the standards

As noted, Kurt Angle is on his farewell tour and is fighting his favorite wrestlers from both brands, and this week it would be Rey Mysterio who joins the former Olympian in the ring. The match has great potential and will be of great proportion because the wrestlers are experienced, and have a great history. It is also a possibility that John Cena may return to WWE and challenge Kurt Angle, thus making it a decision for Kurt Angle to choose between him and Baron Corbin.

This will be good to see, as the two are known for their history, and it was Kurt who was a part of John Cena's debut, so how about returning the favor by being a part of Kurt's final match at the shows of shows. This will be a great way to honor the legendary career of the former Olympian in the ring and will be the right sendoff of the illustrious career.

#2 Roman Reigns fight continues

Fight for honour
Fight for honour

Roman Reigns accepted Drew McIntyre's challenge, for Wrestlemania and fired the first shot, however, he wasn't, the last man standing. The Scottish Psychopath took The Big Dog Down and ensured that he didn't get up. This definitely set the stage for some action this week, and we know that the two will be locking horns any place in the arena and take things to another level.

Ad

The two have been in good stories in the past and have a great possibility of being pushed after Wrestlemania 35 is in the books. With that in mind, these two will leave no stone unturned to ignite their rivalry for the match at Wrestlemania and beyond, and this will be good for the fans, and definitely, 'Best For Business.' Who wouldn't want to see a beatdown between these two as part of the entertainment, and also the storyline in the process.

#1 The Beast is back

Last week The Humble Advocate, Paul Heyman, interfered during Seth Rollins' promo, and truth be told, it wasn't good, but still worth the hype. Without the Universal Champion in sight, the overall storyline sounded weird, but this week, the action will happen in the ring, as The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar will return to the ring to even the odds and hype the feud before the match happens on 7th April.

We all know that Seth can pull off any promo like a pro, however, Brock would need his advocate to present the state of his championship, to the WWE Universe. The last time these two were in the ring, The Architect received 6 F5's and was taken out of action for some time. Will history repeat itself this week or will we have something to cheer for as Raw goes off the air.
