#5 Hit on WWE RAW: AJ Styles kickstarts an interesting feud
WWE RAW Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Omos put their titles on the line this week against The Viking Raiders. Both teams previously faced each other in a title bout at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view.
The champions eventually retained their titles after an entertaining match. Erik and Ivar also looked strong as the challengers, and they should be booked for more feuds in the tag team division.

Later in the night, Styles devised a plan with The Miz and John Morrison backstage on WWE RAW. Following that, Morrison faced Riddle in a fantastic match. However, Omos and Styles distracted The Original Bro by breaking his scooter at ringside. The distraction allowed Morrison to construct a sneak attack and pin Riddle on WWE RAW.
Following the match, AJ Styles entered the ring and started attacking Riddle. Omos joined in on the act while the crowd started shouting “Randy” in unison. It appears that the WWE RAW Tag Team Champions will now feud with RK-Bro – a tag team that has quickly turned into a fan favorite.
It is important to note that Randy Orton has not appeared on WWE television ever since Riddle cost him a spot in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
However, watching a helpless Riddle struggle against Styles and Omos might eventually prompt Randy Orton to return on WWE RAW. The creative team could also set up a title match between the two teams at SummerSlam 2021.
Both Orton and Styles are working to get Riddle and Omos over, respectively. They are all entertaining superstars, and we have a gripping storyline waiting to unfold on Monday nights.
The dynamic between Randy Orton and Riddle is both innocent and hilarious. Styles, as a heel, is nothing short of brilliant on the mic. The rivalry will craft multiple engaging segments on WWE RAW that can liven up the three-hour-long show.
