Shayna Baszler vs. Doudrop on WWE RAW will determine who goes over to face Zelina Vega in the finals of the Queen's Crown Tournament in Saudi Arabia. Could Doudrop hold the advantage on this week's show and is about to pick up a win when another major swerve happens?

Sonya Deville could change the rules to such a degree that it favors her new friend, Shayna Baszler. Maybe Shayna Baszler picks up a chair on WWE RAW and Sonya Deville changes the rules at the last minute to make it a No DQ match.

Jinder Mahal and Shanky have been drafted to SmackDown whereas Veer is now a part of the WWE RAW brand. Could WWE pull off an angle on this week's show to have them split up, with Veer turning babyface in the process?

A babyface Veer could be pushed as an upper mid-card superstar. Vince McMahon is always looking for that breakthrough superstar to conquer the big Indian market.
