3 Shockers we could see on the RAW before Stomping Grounds: Long-awaited in-ring return, a guest referee
Following a substandard episode of RAW last week, the company will be eager to deliver a better show this week. Stomping Grounds, which is the next pay-per-view of WWE, is just one week away. Hence, the fans will be expecting an action-packed show before Stomping Grounds.
Several big names were missing from RAW last week. The Revival became the RAW Tag Team Champions after winning the triple threat Tag Team match. Becky Lynch and Bayley teamed up to take on Alexa Bliss and Lacey Evans, while Shane McMahon celebrated his Super ShowDown victory against Roman Reigns.
The IIconics defended the twin belts against two local competitors. Lars Sullivan decimated the Lucha House Party in a 3-on-1 Elimination Handicap match, while Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens fought in the main event of the night.
The upcoming RAW will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. Baron Corbin will choose a special guest referee for the Universal Championship match against Seth Rollins at Stomping Grounds. A Fatal 5-Way match will take place to decide the number one contender of US Title. Furthermore, Daniel Bryan will show up on the red brand through Wild Card Rule.
Here we discuss three shockers we could see on RAW this week.
#3 Roman Reigns might get backup
Roman Reigns is scheduled to face Drew McIntyre at Stomping Grounds. The Big Dog skipped RAW and SmackDown Live last week, but he is expected to be present this week. Following a humiliating loss at Super ShowDown, Reigns will be eyeing revenge at Stomping Grounds, which is just one week away.
Reigns lost to Shane McMahon, and it was his first loss this year. Since McIntyre was at ringside, the Scottish Psychopath's distraction helped Shane to pin Reigns. Considering Shane will be the back-up of McIntyre at Stomping Grounds, Reigns will be cautious to repeat the same mistakes.
It will not be surprising if Reigns decides to bring his brothers to prevent the interference of Shane McMahon. The Usos have been part of this storyline, as the Bloodline reunited a couple of weeks ago. Jimmy and Jey could help to deliver a fair match at Stomping Grounds.
