6 Twists for RAW before Super ShowDown: Fan-favorite becomes champion, Huge match for MITB contract?
With less than one week remaining for WWE's tour to Saudi Arabia and WWE Super ShowDown, the company will deliver the go-home RAW show for the event on June 3rd live from Austin, Texas.
After what was a rather controversial week for WWE, thanks to Dean Ambrose's huge revelations and allegations on the company and its working, WWE would want to put on a solid show of RAW to get back on track.
With many major segments set to take place this week, including Brock's cash-in on Seth Rollins, here are the possible twists and surprises that can take place on the RAW before Super ShowDown.
#6 Cesaro becomes the new United States Champion
Rey Mysterio's unfortunate injury at Money in the Bank has forced him to relinquish his United States Championship. With Samoa Joe's intentions to reclaim the title he lost to Rey at MITB, it would be interesting to see who and how does the company crown its new US Champion.
There are certainly many candidates who have proved themselves worthy to get a shot at the US Title. A fatal-four way between Joe, Cesaro, Ricochet, and Sami Zayn might be a great way to crown the new US Champion. With the brewing competition with AEW, this match would certainly be a great way to showcase some exceptional wrestling on their show.
Cesaro, being a huge fan-favorite, could shock everyone by becoming the new US Champion. The match itself would no-doubt be exceptional.
#5 The Viking Raiders return
RAW's Tag Team Division has faced some really bad booking in the last few weeks. On the forefront are the Tag Team Champions, Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder, who are missing from the show for many weeks. Them not appearing on RAW is also hurting the importance of the RAW Tag Titles.
Other than them, The Viking Raiders who debuted on RAW after WrestleMania 35 had a great start and looked set to dominate the roster. But these two monsters have also been missing from Monday Night's for the last several weeks. A return of the Viking Raiders (hopefully with no more name changes) would be a huge boost to the entire division.
It's about time WWE puts these two in the title picture, and that could happen as soon as this Monday with them announcing their intentions to go after the RAW Tag Titles.
