Bobby Lashley and MVP may make the ultimate challenge this week
Bobby Lashley and MVP may make the ultimate challenge this week

This is essentially the WWE RAW episode before Survivor Series 2021. How lackluster has the build to this pay-per-view been, considering there's absolutely no hype at all surrounding the upcoming event?!

WWE RAW needs to be a stacked episode and more importantly, a newsworthy program to remind one and all that there's a show worth watching this weekend. Here are five ways that they could potentially achieve this goal. Of course, if you want to suggest a few ways and means of your own, feel free to go for it.

Why do you think the RAW vs. SmackDown aspect of Survivor Series has been delayed for so long? Do you think that this is a concept that just isn't exciting anymore?

Do let us know your thoughts in the comments.


#5 Dominik turns on his father Rey Mysterio on WWE RAW for losing his spot

How embarrassing is it that the WWE RAW team has Rey Mysterio but not his son, Dominik, who was shortlisted for the team but replaced by Bobby Lashley? Could this inspire him to tap into his dark side and unleash hellfire and brimstone upon one and all? The brunt of the attack could be felt by his father, Rey Mysterio.

Something has got to give with Dominik Mysterio. He's been playing practically the same character since he debuted and there needs to be a transformation for him to reach the next level. A heel turn and a program against his legendary luchador father may be just what the doctor ordered.

Hey, and it also creates a 'what if?' scenario for WWE RAW as we head into Survivor Series!

What if Dominik decides to come out and cost his father the big match on such a massive stage?

#4 Bobby Lashley and MVP call out Brock Lesnar

Bobby Lashley may have to remind the WWE RAW audience that he's the most dominant superstar on the entire brand. With MVP by his side, he cuts an imposing figure and may have a challenge for the most dominant athlete in the company.

Could The All Mighty challenge Brock Lesnar to a match at WrestleMania? By then The Beast Incarnate could finish all his SmackDown duties and focus solely on the Red brand.


#3 Kevin Owens ensures another WWE RAW participant misses Survivor Series 2021

How does Kevin Owens ensure that nobody cheers for his incredibly charismatic persona, you ask? The simplest way to achieve this on WWE RAW would be for him to take someone out from the Survivor Series 2021 team.

Maybe it's Rey Mysterio who had no time for him when Owens was trying to get a moment to talk to him.

Maybe it's someone like Finn Balor who needs a compelling feud to sink his teeth into.

It would allow Gable Steveson to make his pro wrestling debut on a big stage.

#2 Adam Pearce turns heel on WWE RAW this week

Last week on WWE RAW, something was a little off about Adam Pearce's behavior! He claimed that he wanted the Monday night show to win when he's supposed to be an impartial company official.

Moreover, he put Dominik Mysterio on the warpath, only to be confronted by an incensed Bobby Lashley! Could he turn heel on this week's show, considering he's knee-deep in a feud with Brock Lesnar?

The Beast Incarnate is clearly a babyface at this point.

Sonya Deville is clearly a heel and it may be time for Adam Pearce to follow suit.


#1 The Bloodline destroys Big E

If there is no invasion on WWE RAW this week, then there's no way that the audience will be hyped for the upcoming pay-per-view.

Since Roman Reigns and The Usos are already feuding with The New Day, it makes sense for them to take down Big E!

In this manner, the groundwork for the upcoming brand vs. brand match could be set in a fantastic manner.
