WWE RAW: 5 biggest surprises from the Superstar Shake-up episode (April 15, 2019)

#4 War Raiders?

Remember the good old War Machine or the War Raiders? Well, they don’t exist anymore.

The NXT Tag Team Champions made their debut on the Raw brand to the surprise of many in attendance and at home. One thing we know is that they will surely boost the Raw tag team division.

While their move wasn’t too surprising, as they are extremely good together, it’s the name they have been rebranded with that's surprising.

The Viking Experience made their way out to Raw, which confused many, as the two have been extremely successful under their previous team and individual names. Usually, superstars get a new gimmick or get rebranded when they are unsuccessful or making a big move.

Renaming the team was not only surprising but questionable too, as the team is already holding the NXT titles and fans would have found a better connect with them under their previous names.
