WWE RAW Preview: 8th October, 2018

Will The Brothers Of Destruction return?
Will The Brothers Of Destruction return?

Super Show-Down is now in the books and it turned out to be an event of epic proportions. The MCG saw a packed stadium of 70,000 rowdy Australian fans in attendance. The only title change happened on 205 Live, where hometown hero Buddy Murphy dethroned the resilient Cedric Alexander after a strong title reign as Cruiserweight Champion.

Ronda Rousey and The Bella Twins, meanwhile, managed to pick up a victory over The Riott Squad, seemingly ending their rivalry for now. Bobby Lashley's brief alliance with John Cena turned out successful as they knocked off Kevin Owens and Elias.

The Shield meanwhile, suffered a mishap during the match, but they more than compensated for it as their teamwork saw Dean Ambrose pin Dolph Ziggler to pick up the win against The Dogs Of War.

Triple H meanwhile, faced Undertaker for one last time and defeated him, seemingly proving that he's the better of the two. The fallout of Super Show-Down on RAW is going to be really interesting to see. With no special for the men left till Crown Jewel, how's the red brand looking to shape up?


#5 The Rousey-Bella alliance isn't looking strong

Ronda Rousey and The Bella Twins were victorious. Make no mistake about it. Ronda Rousey proved to be the saving grace at the end when she double judo-slammed Sarah Logan and Liv Morgan and tapped them both out with an armbar.

It was an incredible finish but what many people seemed to ignore was the fact that Ronda Rousey and Nikki Bella didn' really get along at first. They couldn't agree on who was going to start the match and Nikki Bella visibly frustrated Ronda Rousey by not tagging her in.

This is where we could see the cracks start to unfold. Will we see Nikki and Brie Bella turn on Ronda Rousey?

#4 Has Bobby Lashley rid himself of Elias and Kevin Owens?

Thanks to help from John Cena, Bobby Lashley was finally able to get one over Elias and Kevin Owens, who had been a thorn on his side for around a month now. Lio Rush couldn't make his way to Australia but he certainly will be there tonight.

Lashley had the greatest of all time by his side at Australia but he doesn't tonight. Will Kevin Owens and Elias once again continue to hound Lashley and Lio Rush?

#3 The Shield stand tall

After an intense match-up against The Dogs Of War, The Shield overcame some major hiccups to stand tall and defeat their opponents. The biggest obstacle happened when Roman Reigns accidentally superman punched Dean Ambrose.

It looked for a moment like Ambrose was going to turn on The Shield, but he only helped them instead. Roman Reigns then speared Braun Strowman like a bullet through the barricade to save Ambrose.

Excellent teamwork from Ambrose & Rollins saw the former pin Dolph Ziggler for the win. The Shield have never looked stronger. But will The Dogs Of War strike back?

#2 What's next for the Intercontinental title?

It's not going to be surprising to see Rollins & Ambrose chase the RAW Tag Team Championships again. But what will be the fate of the Intercontinental Championship? It's been a while since The Architect defended it. With quite a few weeks remaining until Crown Jewel, will Acting-RAW GM Baron Corbin make him defend his title tonight?

It certainly would be fun to see the IC title up for grabs!

#1 Will Triple H and Shawn Michaels stay silent?

The Undertaker and Triple H went to war for the last time ever at Super Show-Down, where The Game was victorious. After the match, Triple H and Shawn Michaels were more than happy to raise their rivals' hands and embrace in a sign of peace and respect.

The Brothers Of Destruction, however, were not. Do you really think that DX will sit back silently? Or will they retaliate? This might have been the final nail in the coffin that brings Shawn Michaels out of retirement for a Brothers Of Destruction vs DX match at Crown Jewel.
