RAW Predictions

Hello everyone and welcome back to Talk Wrestling World, I hope you are all well. As you all know last week there was no live episode of RAW due to poor and dangerous weather conditions, and so this week's RAW Predictions is a little more different. I have interested what I wrote in last weeks RAW Predictions post because I still feel pretty much the same about everything but I'm also going to write up a thew extra predictions first witch are being judged by what has happened over the past week from what we were given last week. You would have also seen that Wrestlemania season has started on my blog and the first post is up now and links to that along side any other recent pots will be bellow.Finally you can let me know what your predictions are by leaving a comment bellow or by tweeting me at @TezangiVictoria. 

Last Thursday on Smackdown Live, Triple H addressed the WWE universe about the Royal Rumble pay per view and what went down on that night. He also declared that he has a huge announcement too make tonight on RAW and over the weekend the WWE have making hints as to what the WWE have/ the Authority have in store. What we do know by hints is that it will involve, Roman Reigns and Wrestlemania. The WWE also put up a picture of Dean Ambrose backstage at a live event with the caption "How will Triple H's announcement on RAW tomorrow affect Dean Ambrose?". You will see down bellow that I have written more about that I think is best for Ambrose heading into Wrestlemania and the possible roots for him.
With Bryan scoring the final win in the Daniel Bryan/ Kane feud last Thursday on Smackdown it's all about finding what is next for both of these superstars. With Sheamus set to return to action any time soon and as a heel, will we see Bryan and Sheamus meet again at opposite sides of the ring? It was also announced on Smackdown last week that Paige would be going one on one with Nikki Bella at the Fastlane Pay per view, and after getting attacked backstage by the Bella's, tonight it's all about Paige gaining some momentum and getting her own back on the champ and  of course Brie. AJ Lee is also set to be returning to action soon, earlier today I posted my first post in Wrestlemania season on Talk Wrestling world and it was all about why now is the right time for AJ Lee VS Stephanie McMahon feud and I will leave the link to that bellow also. Will we see the three time divas champion return tonight and enter her biggest feud to date? With Bray Wyatts crazy message on Smackdown live, what's next for him heading into Wrestlemania? There's also many questions surrounding Dolph Ziggler and Ryback who have been centre stage for the past thew months. There has bee rumours of a Ziggler/Bryan feud and if there is any truth in that we shall find out tonight. And finally, will we see the return of Randy Orton and if so what will be next for Mr Money in the bank, Seth Rollins?

                             LAST WEEKS RAW PREDICTIONS THAT DIDN'T GO UP
After one of the most controversial Royal Rumble matches, Roman Reigns was declared as the man who will headline the two thousand and fifteen Wrestlemania pay per view as he takes on the beast in carnet himself, Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight championship. Over the past twenty four hours the WWE universe have reacted extremely negatively towards the closing moments of last night's live show with the hash tag #CancelTheWWENetwork trending all day. It's been made clear by the fans many times in the past year that Reigns is simply not ready for the main event spot just
yet especially the biggest stage of them all, Wrestlemania. After receiving a heavy set of boo's last night throughout the Rumble match right up util the closing moments, the WWE have to expect the worse tonight as an angry bunch of fans prepare for the first RAW after the Royal Rumble. Tonight, the company will really begin to kick start Wrestlemania season as the feuds and storyline's for the biggest show of the year begin. We can expect a lot of the attention to be on Mr Reigns, as the build up to the biggest match of he's career so far begins, yes guys, that means a dreaded Roman Reigns promo. We can also expect new storyline's and feuds start for Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Daniel Bryan, Rusev, John Cena and The Usos as we prepare for the next pay per view, Fastline. There's also the case of the divas championship, with Nikki gaining some momentum last night she will be looking for a new challenge but with Paige and Nattie still in for a title shot what's coming up for the divas champion?

The Big Returns
Every year at the Royal Rumble we can expect some truly epic returns, but nothing could have prepared me for the shocks we got last night as DDP, The Boggy man and Bubba Ray Dudley made a surprise appearance at the Royal Rumble match. I honestly don't think I have ever marked out so much over a set or returns as I did last night. But can we expect any of these guys to stick around? It's very unlikely DDP will feature on tonight's RAW, he was simply a great surprise entrant to enjoy for the night but can we say the same about the other two surprises? I wanna stay real positive about these two because storyline wise both Bubba and the Boggy man could be put in an insane storyline with two young up and coming stars. After a weak performance last night Ambrose is on the search for a new rival and after two epic feuds already on he's back, the lunatic fringe needs something a little lighter this time round. My dream feud heading into Wrestlemania for Ambrose is of course a heated storyline between him and the one and only Bubba Ray. Someone on my timeline actually tweeted about this this morning and I just thought, yes yes yes, that is a feud I need in my life. You all know I was one hundred per cent behind Ambrose last night in the Rumble and I have to admit I'm really worried about what's next for him. With Rollins having the best performance of the night and Reigns headlining Wrestlemania, it leaves Ambrose in search for something new. In my opinion a feud with Bubba would fit him perfectly. Turing either one of them heel and have them compete at Wrestlemania would help give Ambrose the extra push and the same time put Bubba in line for a Hall of fame entry next year. And anyway, these guys would put on an epic one on one match right? Whether or not Bubba is sticking around has not been announced and there is still the possibility that he was just a special surprise for us for the night. There's also Bray Wyatt. Since the WWE tweeted out a picture of Bray and the Boggy man face to face every single part of me has wanted these two to meet in the ring. Everything about it is perfect and the two could pull off a monster of a Wrestlemania match and once again a feud between the two would do wonders for the career of Bray Wyatt.

usev Takes on the Cenation 
Last night during the Royal Rumble after show, the WWE showed some backstage tension between John Cena and the United States champion, Rusev. This is something the WWE universe have been predicting since Rusev came on the scene, a feud between these two was bound to happen it was just a matte of when, and with Wrestlemania around the corner, it looks like the time is now. I haven't actually spoke much about this and what I think about a feud between between these guys and to be honest I don't have much of an opinion. I was expecting something to go down between these two I was just waiting for it to actually happen. I am really worried about Rusev. I have to admit that over the past year I've really become a Rusev fan, witch I never thought I would say, but he has just improved week after week after week and has shown why he deserves to be were he is. That being said, I worry for him heading into a feud with super Cena. This will be either a career making feud or a career threatening feud. On the other hand, If Cena defeats Rusev at some point and becomes the United States champion then that opens many doors for the US championship and makes it relevant and meaningful again. So I'm very 50/50 with this storyline. We would defiantly get some amazing promos and segments and it would really through Rusev into the bigger spotlight but it could make or break he's career and the question would remain; what would be next for Rusev he lost to Cena? It's all about booking the young, up and coming, future of the company, the WWE have to tread very carefully with this. If a feud between these two is going to happen for Wrestlemania than we will see that start to shape up tonight on RAW, but then I also have ask, what about Ryback? The two have still been working a feud so would be next for him would be intresting.


Diva Championship Dramas Continue
Tonight we should get a much more clear idea of what is going to happen with the Divas championship in the next couple of months. Last night the champ Nikki Bella teamed up with sister Brie to take on Paige and Natalya and we actually got a decent divas match. They got much longer in the ring and was able to show off more because of the time they had. We hardly got to see Paige in action and with tensions rising between her and Nattie things could take a darker turn for the two tonight. Last week on Smackdown, Paige denied being "best friends" with Nattie when the two appeared on the commentary team and Natalya made it clear they simply had a common enemy. With Natalya providing the loss for he and Paige tonight the triple threat match we all thought we should of got last night, may come in to play. There's a possibility Paige will turn on Natalya tonight in either another tag team match or Nattie/Tyson Kidd could cost Paige a match setting up some heat between the two, but with both still with a deserving title shot this would easily set up a triple threat match between Natalya, Paige and Nikki Bella for the Divas championship next month on the twenty second at Fastline. With AJ Lee rumoured to have set to return to action this past weekend at a live show, there's a slight possibility the longest reigning divas champion will make her return to action tonight. Finally, NXT Women's champion Charlotte is set to defend her championship on the Eleventh of February in a fatal four way match, it's likely she will loose the title on that date, so the WWE may begin to start teasing her main roster debut.


Mr Future of the WWE
It's simple, Seth Rollins stole the show last night. He went from strength to strength and stood out more than anyone last night. The triple threat match stole the show and Rollins and Lesnar gave us a ten out of ten performance. I mentioned in my prediction post for this match last week that I felt Rollins didn't need to win the match and there was no need for him to hold the title just yet and I honestly think the loss last night will not effect him what so ever and after that performance last night he has not a single thing to be ashamed of. I was surprised to see Orton not make an appearance last night, I was one hundred per cent convinced he would be making he's return to action last night so I'm predicting hat he will back tonight for sure and somehow a feud between him and Rollins will kick start tonight. We've all been predicting a storyline between the two for months now and it seems the best possible role for both superstars heading into Wrestlemania. Hopefully tonight Rollins isn't pushed too hard, I feel like he needs some rest after an insane night last night


What's next for Royal Rumble losers?
I've already mentioned that Ambrose and Wyatt will be in search for a new feud and what I would love to see but when it comes to being more realistic I think we could be in for some disappointments. Some strange things went down between between Erick Rowan,Luke Harper and Bray Wyatt last night and I do think there will be something bigger happening with these guys for Wrestlemania. There's a slight possibility there will be a triple threat match at some point but personally I wouldn't wanna see a feud between the three guys. I think we could either see Luke Harper turn baby face and take on Bray or Harper or Harper take on Erick Rowan in full on feud or Rowan and Bray. It's possible we will see Rowan take on Curtis Axel after what took place last night but I honestly can't wait to see what will happen between the three heading into Wrestlemania. As for Ambrose, I have no idea what they are going to do with him next. A heel turn maybe? A possible feud with Barrett considering he's got a clean win over him last week? I think what we will see is them just have him in a couple of random matches for the next couple of weeks until something stronger comes into play for him. It will also be intresting seeing what the WWE have in store for Daniel Bryan after he's surprise loss last night.The Sandow turn on the Miz will probably be teased more but I doubt we will actually see him full on turn on Miz until the night after Wrestlemania. The
build up for the Ascension will continue tonight as they slowly enter the Tag team championship title shot, I'd rather them wait until either Wrestlemania or the night after to actually win the title and give Kidd and Cesaro a shot at the championships first, maybe setting up a split between those two and a feud at some point.

Arnold Schwarzenegger will also be officially announced as the next inductee into the 2015 Hall of fame.
