The road to WWE Survivor Series is always an interesting one. RAW, SmackDown, and NXT are now building towards their goal of achieving complete brand supremacy at the event next month.
This year, Survivor Series will air live on November 22nd. The upcoming edition of RAW should mark the start of all three WWE brands pursuing their status as the most dominant show within the company.
This article will take a look at RAW's potential candidates for the 5-on-5-on-5 Women's Survivor Series Elimination match. The female Superstars who represented the Red Brand in 2019 were:
- Charlotte Flair
- Asuka
- Kairi Sane
- Natalya
- Sarah Logan
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Even though it seems a bit early, RAW's picks for Survivor Series could be announced as soon as tonight's episode. With that in mind, let's predict five WWE stars who could be part of the RAW Women's Survivor Series team this year.
Trending
#5 and #4 WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler
Last year, The Kabuki Warriors were included as part of the RAW Women's Survivor Series team when they were tag team champions. So, it makes perfect sense to include the current women's tag team title holders in the 2020 team.
On last week's edition of WWE RAW, Asuka encountered some trouble in the form of Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler. The Empress of Tomorrow had just defeated Lana in a title match, and was at a disadvantage against the powerhouse duo.
Shayna went after Asuka, but the latter managed to escape before anymore damage could be done. It's likely Baszler and Asuka could face each other in a RAW Women's title match ahead of Survivor Series. The winner could then face the top singles champions from SmackDown and NXT at the pay-per-view..
If Shayna and Nia remain the tag team champions until Survivor Series, it is very likely that they will be clubbed together as an integral part of RAW's Women's team.
#3 WWE RAW Superstar Lana
Speaking of what went down in last week's episode of WWE RAW, Lana fought Asuka in an unsuccessful effort to become the WWE RAW Women's Champion.
Soon after, Nia Jax delivered a Samoan Drop to Lana through the commentary table for a fifth consecutive week. If there is one thing WWE loves to do amongst Survivor Series teams, it is to create conflict between team members.
Even though Lana wouldn't be the first choice as a strong teammate, her presence could irk the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Shayna Baszler and, especially, Nia Jax.
It's not just the conflict here. WWE will probably book Lana as a member of the RAW Survivor Series team because of her underdog roots as well. Underdog stories often do well in a traditional tag team setting at Survivor Series.
At first glance, Lana may come across as an odd prediction in this context. However, WWE's booking history has shown that underdogs like Lana often make it to the team because of their status and storyline.
#2 WWE RAW Superstar Peyton Royce
Aside from a strong tag team and an underdog, a normal Survivor Series team also usually consists of the "up-and-coming" WWE star. In the current state of WWE RAW, Peyton Royce could potentially be a huge star in the next few years.
Vince McMahon made a controversial decision by breaking up The IIconics. However, it was reported that the higher-ups of WWE are really impressed with Peyton's work ethic and attitude behind the scenes.
Such appreciation could guarantee Peyton Royce a spot in the RAW Women's Survivor Series team. Let's face it, there isn't going to be a lot of TV time for non-title undercard feuds on the road to Survivor Series. Therefore, the best way to push Peyton Royce would be to book her a spot in the aforementioned team.
Her former tag team partner, Billie Kay, was picked by WWE SmackDown in the 2020 Draft. Both women could possibly find themselves on opposite sides of the equation at Survivor Series. That would make for a great scenario amidst other interesting subplots in the 5-on-5-on-5 Women's Survivor Series Elimination match.
#1 WWE RAW Superstar Charlotte Flair
Charlotte Flair has been off WWE TV since the June 17th episode of RAW, where she suffered a kayfabe injury. In reality, The Queen underwent a successful elective surgery a few months ago.
Since then, Charlotte has been training for an in-ring return and The Queen's WWE comeback could occur sooner rather than later.
RAW needs a strong leader on the women's side of things at Survivor Series. Apart from Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler's co-dominant presence, there isn't really an active RAW female star who could singlehandedly lead her teammates, other than Charlotte Flair and Asuka.
Sure, things didn't go down too well last year when Charlotte Flair was a part of Team RAW. However, as mentioned above, most Superstars can't fill her shoes at the moment.
If Charlotte returns on the road to this year's WWE Survivor Series event, she will most probably end up being a part of Team RAW.
Also, Nia Jax was the one to send Charlotte home in the kayfabe world of WWE. So, a power struggle between the two could certainly occur if the latter star comes back in time for next month's pay-per-view.
