It's an exciting episode of RAW as we're officially in the go-home episode of Elimination Chamber. The Chamber, of course, represents one of two major stops on the road to WrestleMania.
Last week, Becky Lynch was invited to RAW to open the show, and she had a rather tense confrontation with Stephanie McMahon. One thing led to another, and Stephanie McMahon found herself on the receiving end of a beatdown from The Man.
Ronda Rousey put 2/3rds of the Riott Squad away in easy fashion, while The Revival once again found themselves are #1 contenders to the RAW Tag Team Championship while Kurt Angle formed an unlikely alliance after getting ready to make an announcement.
We saw the final qualifying match of the Elimination Chamber Women's tag team bout, and we even got the debut of EC3, while Finn Balor may have earned himself a shot at the Intercontinental title.
Let's look ahead to what to expect for RAW tonight!
#5 Has Finn Balor earned himself an Intercontinental Championship shot?
Last week, Finn Balor was supposed to take on Bobby Lashley in an Intercontinental title match. However, Lashley felt that Balor wasn't "good enough" and instead decided to make him face his hype man, Lio Rush.
He told Balor that if he impressed enough, he would certainly get a shot at the Intercontinental Championship. Despite being attacked, Balor would end up overcoming it and walk out victorious.
With an impressive victory against Lio Rush, has Balor managed to stake his claim to the Intercontinental Championship? One would think so. While it's unlikely that we're going to have Balor face Lashley tonight, we can most definitely expect a title match to be announced at the Elimination Chamber. Maybe Balor will end up getting the better of Rush and Lashley tonight.
#4 What's next for Kurt Angle?
Kurt Angle was set to announce his retirement last week, or so it seemed. Unfortunately (or fortunately), he was interrupted by Baron Corbin and Drew McIntyre, two superstars who humiliated him in the recent months.
Braun Strowman came to his aid, and they teamed up in a good tag team match, which ended in a DQ loss for them. With the alliance seemingly being temporary, will Angle return tonight to assist Braun Strowman? What is Angle's future as the road to WrestleMania takes full speed?
#3 Will Dana Brooke take on Natalya?
Last week, Dana Brooke tried to apologize to Natalya about the tag team match they lost the prior week. She seemed genuine about it, but Natalya wasn't even looking at her, let alone listening.
Dana Brooke naturally took offence to this and vowed to prove to Natalya that she belonged amongst the women's division. Little did she realise that Natalya didn't intentionally ignore her....she was just wearing air pods.
Looks like we might be seeing Natalya vs Dana Brooke. Will Dana prove that she belongs?
#2 Seth Rollins responds to Brock Lesnar
Seth Rollins didn't even know which champion he was going to pick to face at WrestleMania on the RAW after Royal Rumble. While other winners in the past have taken their time to choose who they wanted to face, Rollins was told to pick the champion of his choosing at the end of the night.
In the last segment, he was set to come out, but Brock Lesnar came out instead. Rollins went to confront him and he faced an onslaught of F-5's by the 2-time Universal Champion. This week, Seth Rollins returns to respond to Brock Lesnar.
While Lesnar may not be around, it's going to be interesting to see what Rollins has to say. After all, there have been rumours of Rollins having a back injury of sorts. Will he address these rumours? What is he going to say about The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar?
#1 Becky Lynch gets invited to RAW...again
Becky Lynch was right in a way. For a family that keeps telling her to go away and take rest, they sure love inviting her back. However, this week, The Man could very well find herself in hot water.
Last week on RAW, she got into an altercation with Stephanie McMahon, who intentionally kicked her injured knee while down in "self-defence". The next night on SmackDown Live, a suspended Becky Lynch would then be confronted by Triple H, who she went face-to-face with before slapping.
The McMahon's have personally invited her back to RAW, and we could see The Man getting into some real trouble. With the injury and all the attacks that have been happening, Becky Lynch could find herself stripped of her WrestleMania opportunity.
What is going to happen when The Man confronts The McMahon's? Find out right here on Sportskeeda as we bring you live coverage of RAW!
