Monday Night RAW returns tonight with a show being built around five promoted segments. Throughout the COVID-19 era, the WWE has tended to give little away in advance of these shows. Therefore, giving us five segments to talk about is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Vince. Let’s dive right in and take a look at one is on offer from the red brand!
Drew McIntyre on A Moment of Bliss
First up is former WWE Champion, Drew McIntyre, appearing on A Moment of Bliss. Drew has been embroiled in a feud with Randy Orton for months now – culminating in his recent WWE title loss at Hell in a Cell. Drew is now the chaser, but he has the added problem of The Miz (with John Morrison) and The Fiend also entering the title picture. Miz claimed the Money in the Bank briefcase from Otis at Hell in a Cell and has thus entered the fray. Fiend, however, was a recent acquisition from SmackDown and has entered the picture seemingly because he can. Drew appearing on Alexa Bliss‘ A Moment of Bliss will certainly create drama between The Fiend and the Scottish Psychopath. Let’s see what happens.
Second Chance Triple Threat
In a match being dubbed as a “Second Chance Triple Threat”, Riddle, Elias and Jeff Hardy square off for a chance to be added to the RAW men’s Survivor Series team. With Riddle now being just Riddle and Elias losing his second name long ago, Jeff should be worried. This could be a fun and entertaining match. Who wins? It is hard to predict, but one must think Riddle takes it.
Will The Hurt Business Earn a Shot At the New Day?
The most dominant faction in the WWE today takes on the most dominant faction of the past decade (Shield not included). Well, two of them, at least. The Hurt Business (MVP, Shelton Benjamin, Bobby Lashley and Cedric Alexander) are hoping to secure the RAW Tag Team title in the near future. To do this, they must first defeat the New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) on RAW tonight and earn a shot. Can they pull off the victory? Find out on RAW tonight.
Can the RAW Survivor Series Team Coexist?
This is the same question RAW posed to us last week. Sheamus, AJ Styles, Keith Lee and Braun Strowman evidently don’t like one another. That much is obvious. However, in order to overcome the SmackDown Survivor Series team, they must adapt and learn to get along. It should be interesting to see what RAW has in store for these four men tonight. Maybe a pint? They should go for a pint.
Who Will Retribution Target Next on RAW?
Poor Retribution. Has there ever been a faction this poorly handled? You just said Nexus and that’s okay. Ali and Retribution are clearly struggling at the moment. They have been mishandled almost immediately since moving to RAW and Ali’s joining the faction hasn’t helped (through no fault of Ali, who is doing the best with what he is given). People want to see Retribution succeed, as there is some serious talent within that unit. But in order to succeed, they need to be booked seriously; they need to get some momentum and they need to win matches. Tonight is the night.
