As lackluster as both WWE RAW and SmackDown were this week, next week's edition is all set to be an episode to remember from the looks of it. WWE RAW has already announced a bunch of matches and segments for Monday night, and it's all set to be a packed show indeed.

This article aims at gearing you up for the upcoming edition of WWE RAW, and you are invited to chime in, in the comments section below, about what you're looking forward to seeing next week. Of course, more segments and matches could be announced on WWE RAW in the weeks that follow, so stay tuned for that.

#5 Randy Orton could be attacked by 3 WWE Superstars on WWE RAW

If you saw the way that WWE RAW closed out last week, you'll know that The Fiend and Drew McIntyre are both gunning for the WWE Champion Randy Orton who may not hold on to his Championship for too long from the way things are currently shaping up.

Moreover, he may also be in the crosshairs of one Roman Reigns from SmackDown, who may show up on WWE RAW to confront Randy Orton.

And so, Randy Orton may be the victim of more than one attack on WWE RAW this week, and you have to imagine that the show will end with him being laid out.

However, one cannot underestimate the wile and the tenacity of The Viper, who must have a trick or two up his sleeve to keep his opponents at bay, on WWE RAW.

This is what WWE.com has to say about Randy Orton's situation on WWE RAW, with multiple parties going after his hide:

The Apex Predator is back on top the WWE food chain, but the rest of the red brand is hungry to take him down.

#4 Could Braun Strowman join the WWE RAW Survivor Series team?

There are two spots left in the WWE RAW Survivor Series team for the men, and one has to assume that they will be filled during the show. Well, Keith Lee is a part of the team already and one has to assume that the remaining spot on WWE RAW could certainly be filled by someone like Braun Strowman.

While you may believe that the WWE RAW team will become completely bulletproof if Braun Strowman and Keith Lee come together, one has to remember that they have been at odds over the last few weeks, and they could end up eliminating one another at WWE Survivor Series 2020 this year.

Also, Drew McIntyre and Bray Wyatt, both of whom do not have a match at Survivor Series yet, could certainly be added to the WWE RAW Survivor Series team.

It will also be interesting to see if any SmackDown stars show up on WWE RAW this week, to set the stage for Survivor Series.

#3 The New Day in a non-title clash on WWE RAW this week

The New Day will be in a very unique predicament on WWE RAW this week, because, unlike what the case used to be in days past, finally the numbers advantage will not be on their side. Big E is a part of SmackDown whereas Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are the WWE RAW tag team Champions. And facing them on this week's edition in a non-title match is none other than RAW's most dominant collective- The Hurt Business.

The Hurt Business is on fire right now, after defeating RETRIBUTION very recently, and they will want to maintain their momentum in this non-title match against The New Day when Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin find out if they have chemistry when they team up.

If The Hurt Business does pick up a major victory over The New Day, it will definitely mean that they will become a part of the WWE RAW Tag Team Championship picture, leading to some spectacular clashes between the men.

#2 Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke in another major non-title WWE RAW match

WWE.com has summarized the non-title match on WWE RAW in the best possible manner:

Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke have been unbeaten since teaming up on Raw but will face their toughest challenge yet against Nia Jax in non-title action. All four competitors will team up with Lana to represent Team Raw at Survivor Series, but Rose & Brooke still have their sights set on a Women’s Tag Team Title run.Can the newly-formed tandem take down the Women’s Tag Team Champions? Or will Jax & Baszler stop their championship pursuit in its tracks?

Simply put, the objective of the contest is twofold- to sow the seeds for a tag team championship match down the line, and more importantly to sow the seeds of dissent in the WWE RAW Women's Survivor Series team.

Will Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke, who have not been teaming up for the longest time be able to overcome the two most dominant women in the WWE RAW brand in this contest?

#1 WWE RAW will host a big guitar on a pole match

Jeff Hardy and Elias have been in the midst of a war on WWE RAW and a fair number of guitars have been broken thanks to their musical clashes, of the painful kind. Their issues will be resolved on this week's edition of WWE RAW in a major 'guitar on a pole' contest.

This is what WWE.com says about the upcoming WWE RAW match:

Who will drop a smash hit when the two Superstars meet in a Guitar on a Pole Match?

And it's funny in a sense because this week's edition of WWE RAW will be reviewed by Vince Russo with Dr. Chris Featherstone on the Sportskeeda YouTube and Facebook pages. Vince Russo takes over from Road Warrior Animal, who used to review WWE RAW on our channel until his untimely passing, and the name 'Legion of RAW' will continue to honor him.
