The RAW after SummerSlam aired last night and WWE put on a fantastic show. This edition of the red brand featured the debut of Odyssey Jones, the in-ring debut of The Wyatt Sicks, a surprise appearance by Randy Orton, and more.

Interestingly, one of the stars who benefited the most from this edition of RAW was Bronson Reed. The big man promised to make a splash after complaining to Adam Pearce over not having a match and he did exactly that.

Big Bronson Reed brutally assaulted Seth Rollins in the middle of the ring. He went on to hit his intense and impressive Tsunami splash on The Visionary six times in relatively rapid succession as fans were absolutely amazed, shocked, and intrigued.

Reed made a massive statement on RAW, but now a question arises: who's next? Bronson is unlikely to stop at just one casualty, which means other performers on the red brand could soon fall victim to the big man. This article will look at a handful of stars who could be targeted next.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Below are four WWE stars who could be Bronson Reed's next victim.


#4. Sami Zayn is a frequent target of heels in WWE

Sami Zayn is a beloved WWE Superstar. He started his career off in the indies and competed in major companies such as Ring of Honor before joining the Sports Entertainment juggernaut. He has since won titles on RAW, SmackDown, and even NXT.

The Underdog from the Underground recently lost his prized WWE Intercontinental Title to Bron Breakker. Thankfully, he has a chance to regain it when the two clash on RAW next week, but this time it'll be in a Two-Out-Of-Three Falls Match.

This could be the perfect time for Bronson Reed to strike. He could either cost Sami the win or proceed to brutalize the former Tag Team Champion after the grueling bout ends. Regardless, it would be bad news for the Canadian star.


#3. Ilja Dragunov could be on Reed's radar

Ilja Dragunov is one of the hardest-hitting and most intense wrestlers in the industry. The Russian-born star is a former United Kingdom Champion and NXT Champion who now hopes to take over Monday Night RAW.

The Mad Dragon was called up to WWE's main roster earlier this year. While his win-loss record is far from ideal, he has been involved in the main event a few times and has clashed with top names on the red brand.

Given how intense Ilja is, and the fact that he's relatively new to RAW, he could be a target of Bronson's. The big man likely worries Dragunov could try taking his spot and may put a stop to it via multiple Tsunami splashes.


#2. Bronson Reed could take out Jey Uso

Jey Uso is an absurdly popular superstar currently on the WWE RAW brand. He rose to fame as part of The Usos and later in The Bloodline. Since then, he has broken off as a singles star and fans love him.

Main Event Jey Uso has had a slightly diminished role as of late, however. The Samoan star missed SummerSlam but is loosely feuding with The Judgment Day while routinely flirting with Rhea Ripley. Many believe he is just biding his time before joining the newest chapter in The Bloodline saga.

Bronson Reed could target Jey for one specific reason: to write him off of Monday Night RAW. If Reed takes Uso out, he can then return to SmackDown and involve himself with Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa, and others.


#1. CM Punk could become Reed's victim

CM Punk is back in action in WWE. The Straight Edge Superstar returned to the company last November but suffered a serious injury in January. He had his return match at SummerSlam where he took on Drew McIntyre.

Punk lost the bout, but he wants to continue his feud with The Scottish Warrior. Despite that, he could end up in trouble if Bronson Reed decides to target the former WWE Champion. There are a few reasons why he might do exactly that.

For starters, Punk is one of the biggest stars in wrestling. Attacking The Voice of the Voiceless will get Reed a lot of attention. Beyond that, he laid out Seth Rollins, so it is possible he could target each person involved in the petty and dramatic feud every Monday. Who knows, Drew could be a future target too.
