WWE Raw: 4 Shockers & Surprises from this week’s episode (May 6, 2019)

#1 Roman Reign’s unfinished business

Roman Reigns appeared on Raw this week after taking to Twitter and informing the fans well in advance. Even though the WWE authorities were not going to ‘allow’ him to appear on the show, he did so anyway.

Roman had mentioned that he had some ‘unfinished business’ on Raw which was never really mentioned this week to everyone’s surprise.

What made matters worse was Drew McIntyre’s claim that Reigns moved to the blue brand to avoid him. This made little sense as Reigns had already defeated McIntyre at WrestleMania 35.

To make matters worse, Shane McMahon and Elias made a surprise appearance on Raw too, and attacked Reigns during his match with McIntyre. Reigns won the match via disqualification, as McIntyre was disqualified for the umpteenth time since his return.

WWE really needs to think outside the box now that the wild-card rule has been announced, and whether The Miz will play a role in Elias and Shane’s story with Roman Reigns.
