The WWE Royal Rumble is just six days away. What can we expect to see on the final Raw before one of the biggest PPVs of the year?

It’s no secret that WWE Raw has been lagging behind the opposing SmackDown in recent weeks. With inconsequential matches and lackluster storytelling, Raw has become a show that you can skip without worrying about missing too much. But last week, things changed.

Yes, things were helped along by the appearance of the Undertaker and Shawn Michaels, but the show overall did not drag. The ending segment was particularly good as it had a very old-school feel as Kevin Owens, Chris Jericho, Braun Strowman, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Sami Zayn all brawled to close the show. There was no commentary as the team vacated the table once the action reached the top of the stage, and that gave things a different and fun feel as Owens powerbombed Reigns through a table to end the night.

It remains to be seen if Raw will make it two great shows in a row, but the odds seem somewhat strong. With the Royal Rumble just six days away, you would expect business to pick up tonight, especially with Goldberg making his return.

It seems reasonable to predict that Raw will deliver again tonight. As far as what exactly will go down, here are four predictions for tonight’s show.
