On tonight's edition of Monday Night Raw, expect payback from The Shield after they were jumped by the entire Heel Roster last week. The attack was likely ordered by the acting General Manager, Baron Corbin. However, The Shield has overcome Authorities in the past and things wouldn't be much different this time either.
We have seen The Shield take out more than 10 Superstars at the same time all by themselves in the past. However, things wouldn't be the same this time. The Heel roster now has a huge lineup, consisting of Superstars like Authors of Pain, Braun Strowman, Drew McIntyre etc.
So, if The Shield wants to avoid what happened last week, they would need some backup. There are some other Superstars on the Raw roster who have some score to settle against the Heels. The Shield would have a hard time trusting some of these Superstars but as it's said, desperate times call for desperate measures.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
So, here are 6 Superstars and Tag Teams who can aid The Shield tonight in their battle against the Heels.
#6 The B-Team
Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas, collectively known as The B-Team lost their Tag Team Titles to Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler last week. The B-Team reigned as Raw's Tag Team Champions for almost 2 months. The B-Team was scheduled to face The Revival for the titles but the Revival was jumped backstage by McIntyre and Ziggler prior to the match.
McIntyre and Ziggler won the Tag Titles clean. However, Axel and Dallas might have some issues with last week's match. Axel and Dallas weren't prepared for McIntyre and Ziggler. They had been feuding with The Revival for one month. So, a sudden change in the opponents might have led to their loss. This can lead to The B-Team siding with The Hounds of Justice.
#5 Bobby Lashley
Bobby Lashley has been directionless ever since returning to WWE earlier this year. He was even left off the Summerslam card. However, it looks like those days are over. Lashley has been having issues with Baron Corbin Post-Summerslam. Lashley has even stood up to Corbin for his abuse of power against Finn Balor two weeks ago.
Last week on Raw, Lashley was brutally attacked by a returning Kevin Owens during an ongoing segment which featured Jinder Mahal and Bobby Lashley. Kevin Owens was also one of the Superstars leading the heels against The Shield. So, expect Lashley to be standing by The Hounds of Justice tonight due to his unfinished business with Kevin Owens and to some extent, Baron Corbin and Jinder Mahal.
#4 The Revival
Until last week, it was looking like The Revival may finally win the Tag Titles. The Revival was one of the top Teams in NXT and their main roster run hasn't been so great so far. However, after their impressive win over Roman Reigns and Bobby Lashley 2 months ago, it seemed like things would eventually get better for them.
The Revival fought their way to the top of Raw's Tag Team Division. They were scheduled to face The B-Team last week for the Tag Titles. However, they were brutally attacked by Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler before the match. The attack left them unable to compete. A team like The Revival could not be trusted by The Shield but they have a score to settle against McIntyre and Ziggler. So, expect The Revival to form a short and unlikely alliance with The Shield tonight.
#3 Finn Balor
Finn Balor may never win a World Championship again but that doesn't mean he couldn't be a part of a big story-line. Finn Balor has been feuding with Baron Corbin for nearly 3 months now. 2 weeks ago, Balor was defeated by Corbin when Corbin hit Balor with a steel chair and announced that the match was No-DQ. Last week, Corbin booked Balor against Braun Strowman.
Strowman picked up the win and proceeded to assault Balor after the match with McIntyre and Ziggler. However, The Shield's interruption saved Balor from being further assaulted by the trio. Expect Finn Balor to return the favor tonight in one way or the other. Finn Balor is likely to be one of the front-runners in aiding The Shield tonight.
#2 Bray Wyatt
Bray Wyatt hasn't been seen on WWE TV since the Raw before Summerslam, where he and Matt Hardy unsuccessfully challenged for the Tag Titles. Bray Wyatt is rumored to return to WWE TV soon with a new character. Although it's unlikely, expect Wyatt to make his surprise return tonight on Raw in order to help The Shield.
It's high time Wyatt gets a new character. He should return as a tweener. His heel run could have been great but it failed as his actions in the ring couldn't back his words. If Wyatt returns with a fresh gimmick, it could do wonders for him. He could become a prominent part of the upper mid-card scene. Wyatt could return tonight, help The Shield and step up to his former ally, Braun Strowman.
#1 Kurt Angle
Kurt Angle was sent on a "Vacation" 3 weeks ago by Stephanie McMahon after his disappointing performance as the General Manager of Raw. It has been rumored that Angle would be returning as a full-time performer. Prior to leaving, Angle was having a hard time dealing with Constable Corbin, so expect Angle to continue his feud with Corbin once he returns.
The earliest we could see Angle would be on tonight's Raw. Angle was an honorary member of The Shield last year at TLC. The Shield also aided Kurt Angle in attacking the Smackdown Live Roster last November. So, Kurt Angle could likely make his return tonight and align with The Shield to take out the heels, especially the acting General Manager, Baron Corbin.
