4 biggest things WWE could be planning on RAW this week: A heel turn, The Fiend's new victim (26 August 2019)

RAW was held in Minnesota last week, and it was an impressive show. The King of the Ring tournament began on the red brand last week, and we also witnessed a number of impressive matches.

Samoa Joe defeated Cesaro, and Cedric Alexander pinned Sami Zayn in two matches of the King of the Ring tournament. The other four King of the Ring participants fought in a tag team match. After a defeat against The Miz, Dolph Ziggler lost to Roman Reigns last week.

Elsewhere on the show, the Women's Tag Team Champions Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross beat Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose. Sasha Banks attacked Natalya in the backstage area. Moreover, the RAW Tag Team Championship changed hands as Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins won the twin belts.

The upcoming RAW will be held at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. Following an action-packed episode last week, the anticipation will be high this week. Drew McIntyre will tussle with Ricochet and The Miz will take on Baron Corbin.

Let's discuss four things WWE could be planning on RAW this week.

#4 Sami Zayn costs The Miz his King of the Ring match

The Miz is set to face Baron Corbin on RAW this week. The two men crossed paths in a tag team match last week, and Corbin was pinned by Ricochet. The Miz ended his rivalry with Dolph Ziggler, whereas Corbin returned last week after a hiatus.

The Miz hosted an episode of The Miz TV on SmackDown Live last week. Sami Zayn, who also participated in the King of the Ring tournament, was the special guest. The former NXT Champion took shots at the A-Lister and he introduced the Intercontinental Champion Shinsuke Nakamura. Things got heated during the segment as Nakamura delivered a vicious Kinshasa to The Miz.

Perhaps WWE gave us a hint of a new rivalry on SmackDown Live last week. Considering Sami Zayn aligned with Nakamura, the former could interfere the match between The Miz and Corbin. It will not be surprising if Zayn helps Corbin to pin the A-Lister. It could start a new feud and the eight-time Intercontinental Champion might challenge the current Intercontinental Champion at Clash of Champions.

#3 The Man takes her vengeance

Becky Lynch, who was attacked by a returning Sasha Banks, delivered a fierce promo last week. The Man was furious after the devastating attack and she took shots at The Boss. The feud has already started and the company could confirm the RAW Women's Championship match on RAW this week.

The Boss made a gigantic statement following her return two weeks ago. Her last match was the Grandest Stage of Them All, where she lost the Women's Tag Team Titles alongside Bayley. The four-time RAW Women's Champion didn't take long to turn heel as she attacked an injured Natalya. After this, she delivered some vicious chair shots to Becky Lynch when the latter came out to confront Banks. The beat down certainly hinted at the next challenger for Lynch.

While Lynch called out Banks last week, The Boss attacked Natalya again, but they didn't confront each other. Lynch hasn't forgotten the assault from Banks, and she could be aiming for revenge. It will not be surprising if The Man decimates Sasha Banks on RAW this week. Considering The Man persona of Lynch, she will not stop until she puts her hands on Banks. If the two women scuffle this week, the feud could grab the attention of the WWE Universe.

#2 The Fiend targets Rey Mysterio

The Fiend has taken WWE by storm after making his in-ring debut at the Biggest Party of the Summer. Though Bray Wyatt skipped the RAW after SummerSlam, he made his presence felt on the red brand last week. The Fiend attacked WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Lawler. In previous weeks, The Fiend also assaulted Kurt Angle and Mick Foley, who are two legendary names.

Rey Mysterio, who has been going through a lean patch, expressed his disappointment in a backstage interview last week. The former WWE Champion has not been doing well in the squared circle, and he hinted at his retirement, but Dominic convinced him to continue. Since Mysterio teased retiring, The Fiend could put an end to his career in WWE.

It is no secret that the alter ego of Bray Wyatt has been targeting big names. The Fiend already attacked three legendary Superstars and it will not surprising if Rey Mysterio turns out to be his next victim. Though Mysterio is going through a tough time, he is one of the biggest names in WWE. The Fiend could send a strong message if he dismantles Rey Mysterio at Clash of Champions.

#1 The OC reclaim the RAW Tag Team Championship after Braun Strowman turns on Seth Rollins

We saw a major surprise on RAW last week when Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins won the RAW Tag Team Championship. The usual alliance managed to defeat Gallows and Anderson in the main event of the night. Although AJ Styles tried to save the twin belts for his buddies, he didn't succeed.

Last week, the match wasn't originally scheduled to take place on RAW. Earlier, AJ Styles put the US Title on the line against Strowman. Considering Gallows and Anderson were at ringside, the match had a predictable ending, as the two men interfered the bout. The OC teamed up to assault the Monster among Men, but the Universal Champion Seth Rollins came to rescue.

Though Strowman and Rollins won the twin belts, the Monster had his eyes on the Universal Championship. During the backstage segments, Strowman was continuously staring at the Universal Title. The storyline could lead to a huge Universal Championship match at Clash of Champions.

If Strowman becomes the next challenger for Rollins, the former could turn heel and it could happen this week. After losing the twin belts, The OC are likely to get a rematch and they could recapture the titles following a heel turn from Strowman.
