Survivor Series had everything one expected and more!
Survivor Series had everything one expected and more!

Survivor Series, one of the most anticipated pay-per-views of this year, just came to an end, and it was a great show. WWE will be looking to continue last night's momentum with RAW tonight, which takes place live from the Allstate Arena, Chicago, IL.

Before continuing, wrestling fans should expect a return to the brand split now that Survivor Series has come to its conclusion. With that in mind, let's take a look at what happened at the PPV.

As expected, Brock Lesnar defeated Rey Mysterio to retain the WWE Championship, but we saw Dominick Mysterio join his father's side and show his own impressive in-ring ability. The Viking Raiders defeated The Undisputed Era and The New Day on the Kickoff Show, while both RAW teams lost the traditional Survivor Series five on five Elimination Match to NXT and SmackDown respectively.

Furthermore, Roderick Strong emerged as the winner in the Champion vs Champion vs Champion match against AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura, in what was one of the matches of the night.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

With all that mind, let's take a look at the five biggest things we could see on the Red Brand tonight.


#5 Kevin Owens drops a pipebomb on RAW

After joining Tommaso Ciampa's team at WarGames, Kevin Owens didn't turn on RAW at Survivor Series. Although he openly stated that he loves NXT, Owens ultimately remained loyal to the Red Brand on Sunday. Before his Survivor Series match, there was a segment featuring Owens and Seth Rollins, where 'The Prizefighter' was seen staring at his RAW armband before finally putting it on. He then told Rollins that RAW needed him.

Therefore, tonight on RAW, we might see Kevin Owens absolutely lose it and drop a pipebomb on the show, just like he did on SmackDown. Owens is already over with the WWE Universe, but this could make him even more popular, which might transcend into the big push that he deserves.

#4 Seth Rollins addresses future, comes face to face with Erick Rowan

Now that Survivor Series has come to an end, wrestling fans still aren't clear on what lies ahead for Seth Rollins. He clearly hasn't turned heel yet and from his booking over the past couple of weeks, it's quite clear WWE Creative doesn't know what to do with him.

Therefore, while addressing his future tonight on RAW, Rollins might encounter Erick Rowan and his new cage, which the monster loves to carry around. We then might see a match between the two, which Rowan could win unexpectedly. The loss for Rollins could be the final nail in the coffin, as far as his heel turn is concerned.


#3 Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair team up again

Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair both suffered losses at Survivor Series, which has come as a surprise to many, but on Sunday WWE laid the breadcrumbs for a feud between Asuka and 'The Queen.' Over the last couple of weeks, there have been rumors that Lynch and Flair will challenge for the Women's Tag Team Titles at TLC.

Tonight on RAW, we might see both 'The Queen' and 'The Man' team up again. One can't help but think that this tag team feud might be in the works for something bigger and it could all lead to Flair and Lynch taking on Asuka and Kairi Sane for the Women's Tag Team Championships at TLC.

#2 Drew McIntyre interrupts Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman

After beating Rey Mysterio last night in an incredible bout at Survivor Series, Brock Lesnar is still the undisputed WWE Champion. As is customary after every Lesnar PPV win, Paul Heyman might come out on RAW tonight to hype 'The Beast Incarnate's' huge Survivor Series victory.

In turn, we could see 'The Scottish Psychopath' Drew McIntyre interrupt Heyman and give rise to a dream feud many have been waiting to see. At this moment in time, Lesnar needs to move on from his feud with Rey Mysterio and family to feud against a rising star. That would be best for business.


#1 The Usos return, challenge the Viking Raiders for a RAW Tag Team Championship match

The Viking Raiders got a huge win over The Undisputed Era and The New Day at Survivor Series and WWE should look to continue their momentum tonight on RAW by giving them a legitimate feud for TLC. For so long, The Viking Raiders have been facing enhancement talent and that isn't helping them reach the next level.

This would be the perfect opportunity for WWE to bring back The Usos from their hiatus. We might see one of the best tag teams to ever step foot in a WWE ring return to challenge The Viking Raiders for the RAW Tag Team Championship. This could be a great bout and it might all happen tonight on RAW.
