4 Biggest Things Vince McMahon Made Perfectly Clear On Monday Night Raw

In what certainly diminished the entire credibility of the Superstar-Shake Up, Vince McMahon's new 'Wild-Card Rule' on Monday Night Raw ended up being a subject of heated debate all around the wrestling world.

Some fans enjoyed it for what it is, while the others left no stone unturned in criticizing WWE for defying logic on live television amidst massive viewership decline.

The flagship show saw the likes of Roman Reigns, The 'New' Daniel Bryan, Kofi Kingston, and Lars Sullivan make some crucial appearances.

Furthermore, we got interesting confrontations between Seth Rollins and A.J. Styles as well as Braun Strowman and Sami Zayn.

With Vince McMahon's Wild-Card Rule now becoming a legitimate weekly thing, will this be the end of brand extension on the main roster? Let's find out.

Here are the 5 biggest things Vince McMahon made perfectly clear on Monday Night Raw.

#1 Dominic will influence Samoa Joe's clash with Rey Mysterio

Will Dominic turn the tables?

After shockingly pinning Samoa Joe last week on Monday Night Raw, Rey Mysterio will now head to Money in the Bank with the intention of outshining The Destroyer again for The United States Championship.

Considering that the company is bound to advance the narrative with a 50-50 booking, Samoa Joe's engaging confrontation tonight with Rey Mysterio's son, Dominic has opened the gates for an even more interesting clash on May 19th.

Since the former NXT Champion has been pretty effective portraying a destructive intimidator on screen, the element of fear could bring out the best in an underdog like Rey Mysterio.

Although the WWE creative are using 50-50 booking to take this feud forward, Dominic's intervention adds an interesting dynamic in this David-Goliath tussle.

With speculations running wild on a potential in-ring debut for Dominic, there's no better antagonist for him to make his debut against than Samoa Joe.

#2 The 'Revival' of the Tag-Team Division seems impossible right now

Pulling pranks is not the right way forward

Despite WWE possessing some of the greatest tag-teams in the game today in Revival and The Usos, sidelining these two into an almost illogical prank fest has disappointed the audience.

The former Raw Tag-Team Champions are struggling to make a name for themselves in Vince McMahon's billion dollar company and amidst speculations of them refusing to renew their contract, the revival of the tag-team division seems impossible.

With All Elite Wrestling likely to shower the spotlight on tag-team wrestling with Double or Nothing, WWE certainly need to put their best foot forward and let these alliances do what they do best - wrestle.

Pulling off pranks with The Revival will not benefit The Usos and is only making them and the entire tag-team division look like a joke on live television. But, will Vince McMahon do anything to alter the complexion of tag-team wrestling on the main roster? Only time will tell.

#3 Lars Sullivan is Vince McMahon's biggest project right now

Wreaking havoc

Ever since WWE showcased vignettes on Lars Sullivan coming to the main roster, we all knew that he was destined for big things under Vince McMahon.

Although major health issues halted Sullivan's rumored clash with John Cena at WrestleMania 35, he has been unstoppable ever since he debuted on the main roster.

The Freak has wreaked havoc on both brands and while the Superstar-Shake Up saw Sullivan bring destruction on SmackDown Live, his shocking return on the red brand suggests otherwise.

After demolishing No Way Jose and his Conga Line, the unstoppable behemoth confronted Vince McMahon and will now be allowed to ambush superstars on Monday's as well.

Considering that he has been presented pretty effectively, Vince certainly sees money in him and may pull out all the stops to make him one of the biggest heels in the company's history.

#4 Finn Balor could be A.J. Styles' wild card

Is this about to happen?:

In what is bound to be a clash for the ages, A.J. Styles will be heading to the XL Center with the aim of outmatching Seth Rollins and winning the Universal Championship.

However, with a determined Seth Rollins standing in his way, this could lead to an interesting dynamic between the two. With the company teasing a possible heel turn for The Phenomenal One, the question is - who will have the former WWE Champion's back?

While many are expecting The Good Brothers to join forces with A.J. Styles and run riot on the red brand, the 'Wild-Card Rule' could coerce The Phenomenal One to align with Finn Balor.

In my personal opinion, an alliance between Finn Balor and A.J. Styles has been long awaited and could ascend genuine viewership on the main roster, if the duo turn heel.

This also gives Roman Reigns the opportunity to intervene and make things more interesting before we head to the biggest party of the summer.
