WWE RAW: 5 things we could expect to see - Former WWE Champion to be The Fiend's next victim, Seth Rollins handpicks his challenger? (19/9/2019)

#3 Lynch-Banks brawl

We could see more of this

Last week on RAW, Sasha Bank made her return on TV for the first time since she disappeared right after the conclusion of WrestleMania 35. Fans had been eagerly waiting for her return for months now and she finally showed up in Canada following SummerSlam.

Banks went into a hiatus as a face and returned to attack Natalya – the homegirl – when she was having her moment with the crowd. Her vicious assault on her forced Becky Lynch to come out and interfere, but it turned out to be a wrong move on The Man’s behalf as she was beaten down by a chair by The Boss.

Following the brawl, Lynch took to Twitter and posted: “Let the games begin.”

It is only indicative of one thing: Banks being the number one contender for Becky Lynch’s RAW Title at the Clash of Champions. The time now is to build up the feud to make it as exciting as possible.

The seeds of this feud were sown subtly by Lynch before Banks’ return when she said:

“If Sasha Banks could hack it and she didn’t just get her jacket – she’s off crying like Ronda Rousey – then I would love to face her. But, unfortunately, she couldn’t take losing. She lost the Tag Team Championship and she was gone. Some people can’t hack losing, they can’t step up. They can’t realise that when you lose, it’s just a chance to get better, it’s a chance to learn, it’s a chance to grow.”

As a result, we could expect the two to have another brawl on the next episode of RAW, but not before one – or both – of them cuts a promo to turn up the heat.
