After two good shows in the Wrestlemania, the WWE Creattive Team in a tricky position with a few Main Roster key players missing. Especially, Brey Wyatt (who is missing through injury) who was potentially being booked with a babyface angle with Roman Reigns (because WWE can never listen to their fans and just turn him into an heel, apparently). Also , notable exclusions are Adam Rose and Konnor (suspended).

The main attraction of the show should be the WWE Tag Team Championship Tournament, which has opened up a number of sub-plots. High flyers and smooth talkers Enzo and Caz being one among them (and you can’t teach that). They seem to be getting booked well for the Main Roster along with the Vaudevillains.

There are also a few rivalries which may reach the boiling point. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayne is one among them. They have already brawled a couple of time on Raw and Smackdown.
Another big talking point of the show is Charlotte and her angle Natalya. Dr. Phil showed up last week on Raw and though he did not make such a big impact, he did sow the seeds for a possible split between Ric Flair and Charlotte. Dr. Phil claimed that Ric was holding back Charlotte and it might’ve felt like an irrelevant rant at that time, but instead, it was an intelligent foreshadowing from WWE on what was going to come. Natalya got herself screwed last week on Raw and she will be returning to get some revenge this time around.
The Biggest Question WWE fans may be asking at the moment is, what was the whole point of the Wrestlemania Match between Shane Mcmohan and the Undertaker, if Shane gets to be the shots caller in Raw anyway. He has done two shows till now (the second one, bizzarely on the basis of Social Media outbreak). Raw has been good for the past two weeks, but still there is a great amount of uncertainty on who is in charge of the show. Have we seen the end of the Authority? Will we see a new general manager for Raw to end the Shane McMahon angle? This could set up a potential match at Payback. Hopefully we will get a long-term answer this week.
