With Buddy Murphy joining forces with Seth Rollins and the Authors of Pain, the top heel stable on RAW holds a numbers advantage over their babyface counterparts. Kevin Owens, Samoa Joe and Big Show would need another Superstar to level the playing field and a former WWE Champion could be added to the mix soon.

Dave Meltzer speculated that Rey Mysterio could join the babyfaces as he recently wrapped up his US title programme with Andrade on RAW.

The original plan was always to get Mysterio with Joe and Owens and WWE could be revisiting it now.

Meltzer also added that Aleister Black is also a potential candidate owing to his storyline with Buddy Murphy.

Here's what Meltzer had to say:

I don’t know if this is going to happen, I know it was the original plan, was now that Rey lost the ladder match, Rey would join in there with Samoa Joe and Kevin Owens against the AOP and Seth. If Buddy Murphy’s in there, they can add Aleister Black in there, because Aleister Black and Buddy Murphy had a natural programme and that kind of gets a lot of guys in sort of a main event programme.
