Universal Champion Brock Lesnar utterly dismantled Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, but despite suffering a painful defeat on The Grandest Stage of Them All, The Big Dog remains determined to defeat The Beast Incarnate in their rematch inside a Steel Cage at the Greatest Royal Rumble event in Saudi Arabia this Friday, streaming live on WWE Network.Lesnar makes his first live appearance since The Show of Shows on Raw, and his advocate Paul Heyman will no doubt have much to say about the impending return bout inside the unforgiving steel. Will Heyman’s undoubtedly acidic words incite a full-on brawl between these powerful rivals?Last Monday night, the landscape of Monday Night Raw shifted dramatically with the arrival of such Superstars as Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Jinder Mahal, Natalya, The Riott Squad, Bobby Roode, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn and others looking to make a name for themselves in their new surroundings.What new alliances and rivalries will emerge now that these new competitors have made Team Red their home?If you thought the issues between Raw Commissioner Stephanie McMahon and General Manager Kurt Angle ended at WrestleMania, you’ve got another thing coming.Last Monday night, Angle determined that neither Kevin Owens nor Sami Zayn would be joining Raw following their WrestleMania defeat to Daniel Bryan & Shane McMahon and after the two fought each other to a No Contest the week prior on Team Red when a roster spot was on the line, but Stephanie decreed that The Olympic Hero had made his decision based on emotion, awarding Raw contracts to the leaders of The “Yep!” Movement.Is Raw in the midst of a power struggle, and, if so, will opportunistic Superstars like Owens & Zayn take advantage?The pairing of “Woken” Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt has been “delightful” to say the least. The former rivals rolled through Titus Worldwide and The Revival in the Tag Team Eliminator, earning an opportunity to battle Cesaro & Sheamus for the Raw Tag Team Titles — which are currently in abeyance — at the Greatest Royal Rumble eventCan The Woken One and The Deleter of Worlds continue to gain momentum before their title opportunity in Saudi Arabia?
Please, if you say ‘Because it’s your destiny’, I swear to jeebus I’m going to start drinking.
