Predicting the Best and Worst of the upcoming episode of RAW

The Bel
The Bellas are set to return this week

Now that ALL IN is over and praises coming from the world over have finally come to rest, let's focus on what WWE has in store for us in the upcoming episode of Monday Night RAW.

Follow Sportskeeda for the latest WWE news, rumors and all other wrestling news.

A couple of things went wrong in the last episode, most notably Strowman's potential heel turn as he teamed up against Ziggler and McIntyre to take down The Shield and Kevin Owens quitting WWE.

The acting General Manager of RAW, Baron Corbin defeated Finn Balor really clean in the last episode in what seemed like a total joke after Balor produced some interesting and breathtaking action against Corbin at SummerSlam and against Roman Reigns in the RAW episode post-Pay-Per-View.

There were some great moments as well. Trish Stratus' return and Bobby Lashley establishing himself as a dominant wrestler who was able to take down The Ascension in a 2 on 1 handicapped match. The Revival defeating the RAW Tag-Team Champions, The B Team in a non-title match.

So, let's take a look at what could possibly go right and what could possibly go wrong in the upcoming episode of RAW as we predict the Best and Worst of RAW.


Best: The Revival becoming the new Tag-Team Champions

The RAW Tag-Team Division has already suffered enough because of The B-Team. I might not completely agree with the idea that Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas are not capable of giving great matches.

But the team has been booked so weak that it just doesn't fit. The Revival has been looked at as Champions ever since they were called up from NXT to RAW.

And finally looking at a team worthy of being Champions, holding the Tag-Team belt will revive the RAW's Tag-Team Division. WWE needs to look at the various angles by which this story can work.

The B Team, even though a brilliant idea at first became irritating and irksome as the team reached heights proving the other worthy teams had to sit back and watch. Let's hope the coming episode of RAW crown new Champions.

Worst: Baron Corbin and Finn Balor feud continues

Come on, it's over and done. Baron Corbin as the RAW General Manager might be a great idea but taking that as an excuse to push the superstar is the worst plan they could ever come up with to establish Corbin as a high-card wrestler.

WWE Universe definitely isn't a least excited about Finn Balor and Baron Corbin. WWE should look at new ideas to put Balor in the main-event frame. Possibly a feud with Bobby Lashley would be better.

Best: Apollo Crews

The match of Sasha Banks against Dana Brooke hinted the upcoming breakup of Titus Worldwide.

And the winner, if this was to happen, is certainly Apollo Crews. Crews deserve more than where he is at right now.

Titus Worldwide just wasn't working and seemed to have lost the audience's connect as well. If Titus Worldwide breaks up eventually in the upcoming episode, Crews can establish himself in the single's division.

While it's certain he won't be getting more than an upper mid-card push, it will definitely be better than being in Titus Worldwide.

Worst: There seems to be no coming back for Alexa Bliss

Ronda Rounsey absolutely crushed Alexa Bliss in her Championship match at SummerSlam. While it was okay.

Considering Rousey got crowned as the new RAW Women's Champion, it made matters worse for future Hall of Famer, Alexa Bliss.

Bliss is someone who needs to be present in the ring at EVOLUTION and in the upcoming Pay-Per-View Hell in a Cell.

Let's hope in the coming episode of RAW, Alexa Bliss is guaranteed a nice storyline leading her to Hell in the Cell.

Best: The Shield vs Braun Strowman's newfound alliance

The Shield faces off against Braun Strowman's news found alliance in the form of Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre at the Supershowdown in Australia but is there a possibility of a similar match in the coming episode of Monday Night RAW?

Certainly Yes. It will be nice to see six amazing superstars takedown on each other on what promises to be an amazing match.

While I am looking for Strowman's team to emerge as the winners, it is highly unlikely, considering the steps WWE has taken to push Roman Reigns at the helm of WWE programming. This includes turning the monster babyface Strowman into a heel.

Worst: Dean Ambrose continues to be just another member of The Shield

If there is a scenario where The Shield is not taking on Braun Strowman's alliance with Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre, Dean Ambrose will be the biggest loser.

Ever since returning to RAW, Ambrose hasn't been part of anything interesting as far as his single's career is concerned.

He was a side ring spectator in Seth Rollins Intercontinental bout against Dolph Ziggler. And continues to be a member of The Shield as Rollins and Reigns enjoy their Championship run respectively, Ambrose is in dire need of a good storyline that can push him as a main-eventer in single's division.

Best: Shawn Michaels return to Monday Night Raw

It's always a pleasure to see Shawn Michaels in the ring. While other wrestling legends have already weighed in their views and opinions about the Super Show Down involving The Undertaker and Triple H for the one last time, Shawn Michaels will make an appearance in the coming episode of RAW to address the much-anticipated match.

It's always exciting to see Shawn Michaels and considering the fact that he was the prime witness as a referee when The Undertaker and Triple H faced off each other last time, it only adds value to the match. Speculations are rife that he might be the referee in that match again for the One Last Time.
