5 Biggest Things WWE Secretly Told Us On Monday Night Raw

In what was possibly a very reassuring episode of Monday Night Raw, the company have slowly started setting the stage for what is expected to be an epic WrestleMania 35.

Since all the fans had their eyes on the Roman Reigns' update, the Big Dog's successful remission has broken the internet and could lead him to a big headlining bout at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

From the start to the finish of the show, there were many matches that successfully garnered the reaction that needed and gravitated the audience's attention through its in-ring quality and psychology.

Considering that Vince McMahon kept WrestleMania 35 as the main focus, we saw Roman Reigns, Aleister Black, Ricochet, Braun Strowman, Finn Balor, and Ronda Rousey make solid statements.

Batista's epic return to the squared circle has the fans hooked to the edge of their seats, and with Triple H now looking cleared to wrestle, we could be having ourselves an epic WrestleMania match.

Braun Strowman's disappointing feud with Baron Corbin may finally have an outcome now, but the Monster Among Men's recent altercations with Bobby Lashley could be leading to a hot angle at WrestleMania.

However, the positives of the event can also not outshine the negatives of the event, with Dean Ambrose continuing to be presented in disappointing fashion, with Roman and Seth Rollins eventually saving the day for him.

Regardless of what transpired, there are still a lot of things that the company tried to tell us vicariously through some of their segments and matches tonight. What were they? Let's find out.

Here are the 5 biggest things WWE secretly told us on Monday Night Raw.

---

#1 Only Roman Reigns could make Dean Ambrose believe in the Shield again

All guns blazing, Big Dog

Let's just address the elephant in the room here - Roman Reigns is back and how. The Big Dog's fateful announcement back in October had shocked the entire wrestling world, with the fans having a horror nightmare of never seeing the former Universal Champion as an active performer ever again.

However, things happen for the better. The Samoan is now back a more stronger human being and has handed a major boost to Monday Night Raw, as the company continues to be on the Road to WrestleMania 35.

Since Dean Ambrose has struggled to make an impression on the red brand ever since the Lunatic Fringe turned heel on Seth Rollins, his recent character alterations have had the fans guessing.

After Drew Mcintyre, Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley, and Elias ganged up on the former WWE Champion, a deafening Atlanta crowd saw The Big Dog and The Architect tussle it out with the villains.

While we didn't see a proper Shield reunion tonight, it's understandable that only the Big Dog's sensational return could convince Dean Ambrose to believe in the Shield again.

Considering the vociferous relationship between Seth Rollins and Ambrose, Roman's inclusion could certainly change the complexion of the Shield and make it more better.

#2 The newly recruited NXT call-ups are building up the tag-team division

Are they bringing more eyes to the division?

There's no denying that four of the top NXT performers have brought a different style of wrestling on the main roster.

However, most of their matches have seen them joining hands for tag-team action which could be a monumental sign for things that lie ahead.

Since the Revival have been optimistic about bringing some alterations to tag-team wrestling, this could very well be Vince McMahon's way of giving what the fans want whilst advocating for a new style of in-ring quality.

While many fans were sceptical about the recent NXT Call-ups on the main roster, it seems that Vince has used them as an element of rejuvenation in the tag-team division.

Ricochet and Aleister Black's victory tonight against the Raw Tag-Team Champions could be huge and it seems like the company would be willing to give them a shot at a later date.

Regardless of the conclusion that might hinder the Revival's momentum, it's good to see WWE gravitating the attention of its global audience to tag-team wrestling.

#3 Triple H is definitely cleared to lock horns with Batista at WrestleMania

This is absolutely monumental

Ric Flair's 70th birthday celebrations played a pivotal role in drawing the lines between Triple H and Batista who are definitely now on a collision course going into WrestleMania 35.

While legions of fans expected an arrested Becky Lynch to show up and bring straight-fire to the squared circle, Batista's sneak ambush on the Nature Boy has propelled an element of intrigue in the minds of the audience.

This definitely means that Triple H is now cleared to compete and could be in line for a fantastic bout against a villainous Batista at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Full credit goes to the creative team who were effective in their execution and did a brilliant job in presenting Batista in a more villainous form, in order to get the Game's attention.

Triple H Vs. Batista is definitely a match that would run riot at the MetLife Stadium, with the Animal's return adding another high-quality bout on the show this year.

#4 Ronda Rousey relinquishing the Raw Women's Championship would be a decision to keep her off Fastlane PPV

A clinical decision?

With WrestleMania 35 just around the corner, the fans are thrilled at the idea of seeing Becky Lynch finally claim her spot at the top of the women's division.

However, Charlotte's inclusion to the main event spot at the Show of Shows has been successful in adding an element of drama to Becky's tedious journey to New Jersey.

The Man's savage assault on Monday Night Raw was quickly disrupted by the WWE officials and security which coerced Vince McMahon's billion dollar company to get the former SmackDown Women's Champion arrested.

Despite ridiculing Becky for her antics, we saw Ronda Rousey relinquishing the Raw Women's Championship in front of a deafening audience leaving the star-studded bout at WrestleMania in serious jeopardy.

While this could be a solution to reinstate The Relentless One back on the main roster, this could also be a genuine reason to keep the Rowdy One off the Fastlane PPV considering that there's no legitimate opponent for her who could tussle it out with her in a one-off.

#5 Nia Jax and Tamina are the most pointless roadblock for Sasha Banks and Bayley's WrestleMania journey

Very disappointing indeed

While a lot of the stuff delivered on Monday Night Raw was immensely crafted, but the show was not devoid of any negatives, as the creative team failed to bring any attention to the Women's tag-team Championships.

Since Nia Jax and Tamina have always been advocated as the destructive forces in the women's division, Nia's loss to Bayley did more harm to her than anyone else.

Despite being presented as an indestructible force, there's no room for improvement here, with both Nia and Tamina being the most predictable roadblock in Sasha Banks and Bayley's WrestleMania journey.

Considering that Jax was pinned clean tonight by the former Raw Women's Champion, there's no way the WWE Universe would believe in Nia Jax to do the unthinkable at Fastlane.

It's understandable that the company could be preparing for something epic at the Show of Shows, but booking Jax to lose to Bayley in such fashion gives no purpose to their Fastlane bout.
