After an eventful Survivor Series: WarGames, fans are eagerly waiting for the upcoming episodes of WWE RAW and SmackDown. Both shows will feature the fallout from the Canadian spectacle.
The company could have some big things in store for fans this week, which could set the tone for the rest of the year. Aside from that, the creative team could lay down the breadcrumbs for several new feuds and storylines for Saturday Night's Main Event.
On that note, below are four predictions for RAW and SmackDown after Survivor Series: WarGames.
#4. Big E could announce his retirement
The New Day will be celebrating its 10-year anniversary on the RAW after Survivor Series. The segment could see one of the integral members of the faction, Big E, return to the company.
E has been on the sidelines due to a neck injury since the last two years. However, he could return to reunite with the faction during the celebrations on RAW.
If that is indeed the case, the historic moment could turn emotional as E could go on to announce his retirement from in-ring competition. The veteran revealed in an earlier interview that his neck is yet to heal completely. Given the severity of the injury, E may decide to not take any further risks and hang his boots for good on WWE RAW.
#3. Braun Strowman could return as The Fiend with Alexa Bliss on WWE RAW after Survivor Series
Braun Strowman was out of action following the Last Monster Standing Match against Bronson Reed. While he returned to the ring in a dark match two weeks ago, The Monster of All Monsters is yet to return on WWE TV.
That said, things may change on WWE RAW after Survivor Series as Strowman could return with a new character. The former Wyatt Family member could return as The Fiend in honor of the late great Bray Wyatt. However, Braun may not return alone as he could be accompanied by Bray's former accomplice, Alexa Bliss.
Little Miss Bliss has been on a hiatus for nearly two years. However, the nine-time champ (three-time RAW Women's Champion, two-time SmackDown Women's Champion, three-time tag team champion & one-time 24/7 Champion) could return alongside Braun Strowman to join The Wyatt Sicks on WWE RAW.
#2. Kevin Owens could attack Cody Rhodes, leading to Randy Orton's return
Kevin Owens will lock horns with Cody Rhodes at Saturday Night's Main Event. However, The Prizefighter could look to send a stern message to The American Nightmare just days before the scheduled clash.
Owens could blindside Cody Rhodes on SmackDown this week, launching a brutal attack on him. This potential angle could lead to Randy Orton making his return to save his close friend.
The Viper has been on a hiatus following a brutal attack at the hands of Kevin Owens. However, he may return this week to take out The Prizefighter.
#1. Solo Sikoa could be kicked out of The Bloodline following Survivor Series
The new Bloodline suffered a big loss against Roman Reigns' original Bloodline last night at Survivor Series. Given Solo Sikoa was the one to eat the pin, the faction could blame him for their loss.
The heel stable could turn on its leader, kicking The Street Champion out of The Bloodline. This potential angle could see Solo turning face, while Jacob Fatu could take over the helms of the faction before the potential arrival of The Rock.
