RAW Preview: Undefeated World Champion makes big debut, rivalry to end with huge stipulation match (October 7th, 2019)

Welcome to the final edition of RAW Preview in the Wild Card era. The WWE Draft begins this Friday Night on SmackDown and will officially mark the conclusion of the Wild Card rule. It's been a decent few months, but it's clear that having two separate brands is the best way to go about.

We're in the fallout of a rather interesting PPV in Hell in a Cell 2019. By interesting, we mean the fan reaction at the end and how everything was handled. Now, we know that fans aren't happy about the PPV, but there is a silver lining - whenever there's an average to below-average PPV, the RAW that follows it usually delivers in a big and unexpected way. It was clear that WWE was trying to wrap a lot of things up during the show but all of it felt too rushed and forced, except for a couple of really good matches.

Putting the frustration aside, we look at the upcoming RAW and what to look forward to!

#5. Natalya vs Lacey Evans concludes with a Last Woman Standing match

The blow-off match

The big rivalry is all set to conclude tonight on RAW. So far, Evans has been getting the upper hand with victories over Natalya, but in a last-minute match at Hell in a Cell in the pre-show, Natalya managed to make Evans tap.

Not only that, but she gave her a taste of her own medicine as she hit the former Marine Corps with a Women's Right of her own. While she had the last laugh at Hell in a Cell 2019, we're going to see who will stand tall in the conclusion of the rivalry.

It's a good time to have this match since the draft is coming and the two women will likely be separated by brands.

#4. The Man reigns supreme

The Man!

Becky Lynch has been RAW Women's Champion for half a year now. As if that weren't impressive enough, she just secured the most defining victory of her championship reign as she defeated Sasha Banks inside Hell in a Cell.

Many argued that it should have been the main event and after the finish of the show, we can't disagree. Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks have great chemistry as it is, but it was clear that both women took it to a whole new level on the night.

For some, Sasha Banks was the standout performer on the show and even out-performed Becky Lynch, albeit coming off short due to her tapping out at the end. But the match was nothing short of war and if anything, this win has truly legitimized Becky Lynch as RAW Women's Champion.

Lynch has been the face of the Women's division for a while now and will continue taking that mantle as long as she can run with it. Having cleared out the best woman on the roster, who is next for The Man?

#3.Tyson Fury to be given an open mic to confront Braun Strowman

The Gypsy King

Tyson Fury is an undefeated Heavyweight Boxer who is currently the Lineal Heavyweight Champion of the World. He was with his family at ringside for the big SmackDown on FOX premiere and Braun Strowman decided to showboat in front of him a little.

At first, it just seemed like a friendly exchange, but it soon turned into a clash of egos after Fury was sent back. Strowman picked up the victory for his team decisively, but the Boxing Heavyweight Champion decided to jump the barricade and try to get to The Monster Among Men. Luckily, the security restrained him (actually doing their jobs for once) and Fury had to be taken to the back.

Fury responded on social media, revealing that he had been invited to Monday Night RAW and will be given an open mic. He warned Strowman to show up and "get these hands" before his children chanted "dosser" at Strowman.

Tyson Fury stands tall at a whopping 6'9, so it's going to be interesting to see what happens when the two Heavyweights collide

#2. What on earth is with Lashley and Lana?

What?

Last week's RAW undoubtedly left a whole lot of confusion. Bobby Lashley returned from injury during Rusev's match against Seth Rollins. When he came out, he also introduced Rusev's wife Lana, who held his hand and made out with him for an uncomfortably long period.

This was the big talk despite The Fiend appearing moments afterward and fans were left perplexed as to what they witnessed. We still are perplexed about it, but hopefully, we get some answers soon.

We wonder if this has anything to do with Mike and Maria Kanellis. Maria revealed Rusev to be the father of her child but last week admitted that it wasn't true. But what is Lana's motive and why did she pair with Bobby Lashley and kiss him?

Rusev and Seth Rollins are now aligned as they're both on Team Hogan for the upcoming Crown Jewel match. Where does Lashley fit into all of this and will we get an explanation for the shocking finale of RAW last week?

#1. Will we get an explanation for the trainwreck main event?

Not a satisfying finish

The Hell in a Cell 2019 main event was marred by controversy. It's possible that the reception of the entire PPV went down due to the finish of the show. Had it been a satisfying conclusion, then the overall PPV would likely have been praised, or people just wouldn't be as harsh as they are being right now (deservedly so, however).

The match itself proved to be quite the shocker since The Fiend Bray Wyatt proved to be near-invincible. He ate 11 curb stomps and even a pedigree and was able to kick out at just two. Moreover, he had a chair shot to the head, a chair shot to a ladder on his head, a toolbox against the ladder on his head and finally, a sledgehammer to the head on the ladder.

Despite all of this, he ended up getting the last laugh. However, the referee's decision to call a No Contest to a No DQ match was met with a very harsh response. In actuality, it made no sense whatsoever. Not that we haven't seen No Contests inside the Cell before (last year's finish was also a No contest), but something about this was off.

Will Seth Rollins & The Fiend's feud continue? Or will we see Rollins get a new challenger?
