#5 Reason for RAW Superstar Dana Brooke not dating Batista

Dana Brooke and Batista had been flirting all over social media sometime back and it looked like the two were ready to start dating. However, even though they did meet a few times, they did not date for long.

Speaking to Forbes, RAW Superstar Dana Brooke talked about the rumors surrounding her and Batista and why her relationship with the former WWE Champion never worked out.

“We went out, we were great, great, great friends, we’ve been to the Meat Market down in Tampa, we go to [Edison], also in Tampa, so we kept in great contact. There’s always been interest between Dave and I as far as friendships and everything. We share a lot in common as far as being in the business and outside, and being very passionate about giving back and charity work as well. It’s just with my schedule being so so busy, and Dave doing a lot of movies, our times are very limited. But we still communicate, we still talk on a regular basis, my boyfriend now [Uly Diaz] and him also have a lot in common as far as the fight game goes.”

Brooke is currently a part of the RAW Women's Tag Team division along with her partner Mandy Rose.

#4 Vince McMahon has canceled plans to push RAW Superstar Peyton Royce

Anyone who has any idea about how Vince McMahon operates knows that The WWE Chairman can be high on a Superstar one day and loathe him or her the next. Something along those lines has happened to RAW Superstar Peyton Royce. As reported previously, Vince McMahon was very fond of Royce and wanted to split her tag team with Billie Kay to make her a singles Superstar.

However, it looks like WWE have dropped those plans as Royce was seen in a new tag team with Lacey Evans on RAW last week. WrestlingNews.co report that the plans to push Petyon Royce on RAW have taken a backseat as of now.

Meltzer noted that the original plan was for Royce to be a singles star but then he changed his mind.

Dave Meltzer of WON revealed that while the plan was to push Peyton Royce on RAW, Vince McMahon may have changed his mind. This could be the reason behind WWE trying to promote Royce and Evans as a tag team.

#3 No plans to push Tucker on RAW

Talking about RAW Superstars losing their push, another Superstar who may soon become irrelevant is Tucker. As per Dave Meltzer of WON, there were no plans of a puh for Tucker and the only reason for his brief feud with Otis was to get the MITB contract off him.

He was treated like the jobber of jobbers so he’s deader faster after the Otis split up than was hinted to me. The angle was shot to get the briefcase off Otis with no plans of building an Otis vs. Tucker feud, and was just a way out and dropped.

While nobody expected a major push for RAW Superstar Tucker, it did look like he will be given a fair shot at a singles career after he turned on his long time friend Otis. This looks like another case of WWE splitting up a tag team but not knowing what to do after.

It will be interesting to see if Otis will continue to get pushed on SmackDown or whether losing the MITB briefcase was the kiss of death for him too.

#2 RAW Superstar The Fiend teases a match with The Undertaker

Not quite ALL

— Bray Wyatt (@WWEBrayWyatt) November 6, 2020

'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt is currently involved in a 3-way feud for the WWE Championship on RAW. However, that did not stop the former 3-time World Champion to hint at a possible match against The Phenom on Twitter.

The Fiend replied to WWE's tweet stating that The Undertaker has 'battled' them all and insinuated that The Deadman is yet to confront him. Even though Bray Wyatt and The Undertaker have clashed before, The Deadman has never taken on The Fiend persona in WWE.

The Phenom had announced his retirement on his documentary 'Undertaker: The Last Ride' documentary. However, The Deadman will be returning at Survivor Series this year and it possible that we may get to see a confrontation between The Fiend and The Undertaker at the show.

While The Undertaker stated that he is retired, there still is a possibility that he will return for a final match at WrestleMania 37, and RAW's top Superstar The Fiend is the best choice to face The Deadman in his last match ever.

#1 WWE drops former RAW Superstar Brock Lesnar's trademark

WWE had filed to trademark the monicker 'Brock Lesnar', however, the attempt was denied by USPTO in March. WWE was given 6 months to get written permission from former RAW Superstar Brock Lesnar in order to file the trademark.

However, Brock Lesnar is reportedly not under WWE contract any more and has been absent from RAW since WrestleMania 36, where he lost the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre.

To register a mark that consists of or comprises the name of a particular living individual, including a first name, pseudonym, stage name, or nickname, an applicant must provide a written consent personally signed by the named individual.

The Beast Incarnate was the biggest star on Monday Night RAW and his absence can be felt on the red brand. There are rumors that Brock Lesnar will eventually return to WWE once live crowds return to the arenas.

As of now, there is no word on when exactly The Beast Incarnate may be seen back on RAW but we hope that he will return ahead of WrestleMania 37.
