Two unexpected heel turns, Rey Mysterio’s mask to be stolen? - 4 finishes to The New Day vs. LWO vs. The War Raiders on WWE RAW next week
WWE's tag team divisions are finally starting to heat up again after seemingly being on the back foot for several months. SmackDown feels reborn thanks to the addition of the Motor City Machine Guns. Meanwhile, the RAW tag team picture is showing off how good they can be.
The champions of the brand are Finn Balor and JD McDonagh. The Judgment Day members won the World Tag Team Titles from Awesome Truth, but have only defended the gold once despite holding it for months.
Things are changing now and there has been a small tournament on Monday Night RAW to crown the new number one contenders. On the next show, three teams will battle it out in the finals to determine who faces The Judgment Day next.
The New Day's Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, The War Raiders' Ivar and Erik, and The Latino World Order's Dragon Lee and Rey Mysterio will face off in a threw way tag match. How might the match between the three incredible teams end? This article will dive into a handful of options.
Below are four finishes to The New Day vs. The Latino World Order vs. The War Raiders on WWE RAW next week.
#4. Xavier Woods might walk out on Kofi Kingston
The New Day is one of WWE's most decorated and successful tag teams of all time. Originally a trio featuring Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods, The New Day has been a staple in the promotion's tag team scene for around a decade now.
Unfortunately, there has been a lot of tension within the stable. Xavier Woods has been extremely frustrated by their lack of success in WWE as of late and he has been quite vocal about it. Many assume a heel turn is coming.
Come to the Triple Threat Tag Team Match on Monday Night RAW, Woods' frustration may boil over mid-match. He could walk out on his partner, due to miscommunication of some sort. From there, The War Raiders of LWO could put Kofi down and win the bout.
#3. Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee could win by pinfall
The Latino World Order is one of WWE's most popular factions. The stable, which was initially formed in WCW, was brought back by Rey Mysterio. The Hall of Famer is joined by Zelina Vega, Dragon Lee, Joaquin Wilde, and Cruz Del Toro.
The two men involved in the big Triple Threat Tag Team Match on WWE RAW next week are the legendary Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee. The pair defeated The Creed Brothers to advance during this week's show.
Mysterio is an icon of pro wrestling and Lee is one of the most underrated performers going today. They have a strong chance of winning the bout next Monday. If Lee nails a Superkick and Rey hits a 619, even someone like Ivar will be down for the count.
#2. The War Raiders could dominate following their recent WWE return
The War Raiders are back and in more ways than one. Ivar and Erik are long-time pro wrestling veterans who have held tag team gold on WWE's main roster, NXT, and in various other promotions.
Upon being called up to WWE's main roster, Vince McMahon changed their gimmick from The War Raiders to The Viking Experience and then The Viking Raiders. Recently, however, the two have returned from injury and went back to the name they used in then indies.
Erik and Ivar's first match back was a win over The Alpha Academy and they dominated. Come Monday Night RAW, The War Raiders may continue to dominate. The two could destroy the LWO and The New Day, ultimately stacking the four men up into two piles for duel double pins and a major win.
#1. The New Day could turn heel together by ripping off Rey Mysterio's mask
While there is a chance that Xavier Woods turns heel and betrays Kofi Kingston, the WWE RAW match could go a different route. Both Kofi and Xavier could potentially turn heel together.
Rey Mysterio and Xavier Woods went one-on-one on a recent episode of RAW. During the bout, Woods "accidentally" pulled off Rey's mask and got a cheap win because of it. On RAW Talk this week, Rey warned Xavier not to do it again.
In what could be a fun twist, Woods may not do it, but Kingston could instead. Officially making both heels, Kofi could rip off Rey's mask and get a quick but cheap pinfall victory. This would complete their turn and end the tension between The New Day members.
