WWE Monday Night Raw preview: November 13, 2017

Finally, Roman Reigns is back...just in time for Survivor Series as well.

Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins weren't the only ones who missed the presence of the Big Dog as the bar capitalised on New Day's distraction to pull the wool over their eyes and steal the Raw Tag Team Championships last week.

For all the momentum the 'under siege' angle has gathered these past few weeks, the build to Survivor Series has also been incomplete without Roman Reigns in the mix.

Now that he is back, what will the Shield's plans for the pay-per-view be?

But Roman Reigns isn't the only major player who's back, as Shane McMahon announced on Twitter that John Cena will be the fifth member of Team Blue at Survivor Series.

How will Team Angle counter the inclusion of the Leader of the Cenation? Will we see the last minute change to his team to give Raw a better chance?

Find out as we preview this week's episode of Monday Night Raw.

#1 A reshuffle of Team Angle?

Son or otherwise...Kurt Angle has to put the interests of Raw in front of his personal ones

The inclusion of John Cena, the quintessential big match player, must be giving Kurt Angle plenty to think about.

Did he jump the gun in including his son, Jason Jordan, as the fifth member of his team on a whim?

Should he have waited until Team SmackDown announced their team fully before he moved to complete his?

After all, entertaining these doubts is completely justified as his job is on the line, pending the results at Survivor Series.

And as we've noticed these past few weeks, Kurt Angle doesn't seem to deal with pressure very well.

Will he, in an act of desperation, cut Jason Jordan and opt for someone more established and experienced to shore up his troops?

As we all know, a team is only as good as its weakest link.

#2 Will Bayley make it to Survivor Series?

Can Bayley fill the remaining spot on Team Raw?

Captain Alicia Fox, despite being of questionable temperament, has done a bang-up job of assembling her team for Survivor Series so far, recruiting Nia Jax, Asuka and Sasha Banks.

But as it stands, one more spot is yet to be filled, for which Bayley, Dana Brook and Mickey James will compete in a Triple Threat match on Raw.

Will the "Huggable One be able to brave the challenge of the formidable Dana Brook and former Champion Mickey James, to RSVP herself into the Raw Women's Team for Survivor Series?

Or will Dana Brook, eager to impress herself upon the Women's roster, or Mickey James, itching to bounce back from her unsuccessful attempts at the Raw Women's Title, throw a spanner in the works?

#3 A Phenomenal Challenge?

What's in store for "The Phenomenol One"

After dispatching Brawn Strowman, who's arguably been the toughest foe that the Beast has had to brave till date, Brock Lesnar thought his Survivor Series outing would be a picnic against the controversial former WWE Champion, Jinder Mahal.

Only, he didn't expect the phenomenal AJ Styles to play party pooper and capture the WWE Championship in the interim.

With a completely different challenge awaiting him at the pay-per-view now, the "Beast Incarnate" will have to change up his game plan real quick.

Will the late replacement of his opponent put off the WWE Universal Champion's preparation? Or will AJ Styles, despite being prodigiously gifted, get checked into Suplex City nonetheless?

#4 Monsters among men

The Running Powerslam...that Kane sat right back up from!

Kane's brush with Braun Strowman ended with both men on their feet last week, which is the most anyone has been able to boast of after locking horns with the "Monster Among Men".

But everyone can see that a massive, heavyweight collision is brewing between the Devil's Favourite Demon and the man who has laid claim to his spot.

Will the two behemoths finally slug it out in the middle of the ring this week to determine who the most terrifying presence on Raw is?

Or will we see another match added to Survivor Series so these two can finally settle their beef?

#5 The Shield reunites!

Who will the Shield target at Survivor Series?

Roman Reigns returns on Raw this week after missing TLC due to a viral infection...meaning that the Shield is well and truly back again!

And make no mistake about it. The "Hounds of Justice" have a bone or two to pick.

Will they target the Raw Tag Team Champions, Sheamus and Cesaro, who basically screwed over Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose last week to win the Titles?

Will they go after the Miz and the Miztourage, whom they were supposed to face at TLC anyway?

Or will they reach across brands and target the New Day for leading SmackDown Live's siege on Raw both times?
