WWE Raw: 5 alliances which could defeat Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman for the tag-team championships
Last night's edition of Monday Night Raw saw the unusual team of Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman outshining the OC's Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows to win the Raw tag-team Championships.
There's no denying that the spotlight was supposed to be on the Architect and the Monster Among Men, who are rumored to slug it out at Clash of Champions for the Universal Championship.
However, this does not bode well for the Phenomenal One and his brothers. The creative tried to bring an element of rejuvenation to the tag-team division, with legions in the WWE Universe now expecting the company to make the tag-team division great again.
With Rollins and Strowman leading the charge, WWE could utilize their marketability and star-power to elevate the credibility of the gold, whilst making other contenders look strong.
Since the world of professional wrestling rides high on expectations, these are the 5 refreshing cohesive units that could outshine Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman for the Raw tag-team championships.
#1 AJ Styles and Finn Balor
Even if Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows struggled to outmatch the strength and pace of Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins, the OC could still find a way to get their hands on the gold.
With the free bird rule in place, the Phenomenal One could take charge and coerce Finn Balor to see the bigger picture.
This could very well be the right way for the first-ever Universal Champion to turn heel and join forces with AJ Styles, Luke Gallows, and Karl Anderson.
Even though he has been sidelined from television ever since his defeat to the Fiend, the Extraordinary Irishman returning as a heel and aligning with Styles' heel faction would prove beneficial for him as well as the Raw tag-team championships.
If WWE is indeed planning to turn Strowman heel by the time he collides with Rollins for the Universal Championship, it should be AJ Styles and Finn Balor who make the most of this opportunity.
