The go-home episode of Monday Night RAW leading up to Crown Jewel 2024 has come to a close. It delivered numerous exciting moments and unexpected twists, especially within the Bloodline saga. The Stamford-based promotion has officially involved Sami Zayn in this family feud, adding further intrigue.
Beyond this, WWE subtly conveyed several key developments in this edition of the red brand. In this article, we’ll discuss six things WWE has hinted at in the final episode of RAW before the Saudi Arabia premium live event.
#6. The Miz and R-Truth will not reunite anytime soon
On the recent episode of RAW, The Miz attempted to reunite with R-Truth, fearing retaliation from The Wyatt Six after betraying R-Truth. However, his attempt backfired, as Truth was already aware of Miz's tactics and attacked him backstage.

This move from the veteran clearly shows his refusal to reconcile with The Miz, confirming that a reunion between the two is unlikely to happen anytime soon.
#5. The war between Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis has now started
Adam Pearce was visibly frustrated by Bloodline 2.0’s interference on the red brand. Since the villainous faction belongs to SmackDown, Pearce called Nick Aldis to express his frustration and issued a strong warning.
This backstage segment seemingly confirmed that the rivalry between the two General Managers has officially begun. In the coming weeks, fans can expect more heated exchanges between these two authority figures.
#4. Sami Zayn will be part of The Bloodline Saga either way
Sami Zayn was heavily involved in The Bloodline storyline on the recent episode of RAW, with several segments hinting at his inevitable role in the ongoing family drama. Initially, fans saw Zayn attempting to convince Jey Uso to distance himself from The Bloodline saga.
Later, Zayn was also spotted in a conversation with Solo Sikoa. These subtle interactions strongly suggest that Zayn will play a part in The Bloodline saga, aligning with one side or the other, adding even more intrigue.
#3. Damian Priest is not going for a World title shot anytime soon, despite a tease
Last week on RAW, Damian Priest had a backstage confrontation with Gunther, hinting that a match between them could be on the horizon. However, this week, The Archer of Infamy suffered a loss to Dominik Mysterio in the main event, subtly indicating that a World Title opportunity isn’t likely for him anytime soon.
This loss to Dirty Dom has impacted Priest's overall momentum, making it harder to believe he’ll be in line for a World Title shot after this setback.
#2. Miz could quit RAW soon to escape from The Final Testament and Wyatt Sicks
The Miz’s attempt to reunite with R-Truth failed, leading him to request security from Adam Pearce. Shortly afterward, The Final Testament arrived, warning The A-Lister to join them in their battle against The Wyatt Sicks.
This indicates that Miz is caught in a difficult position, trying to escape both Karrion Kross and Uncle Howdy’s faction.
As a result, fans might soon see the multi-time Intercontinental Champion attempting to exit Monday Night RAW. Miz could even request the RAW General Manager to facilitate his departure from the red brand.
#1. Finn Balor could be drifting apart with The Judgment Day
In the main event of RAW, Damian Priest unleashed a series of heavy attacks on Dominik Mysterio, frustrated by his earlier loss. While other members of The Judgment Day rushed in to save Dominik, Finn Balor notably stayed behind, sparking speculation that Balor might be distancing himself from the faction.
This could be a significant hint that Finn Balor is preparing to leave the villainous group, especially if tensions within The Judgment Day continue to escalate.
