WWE Raw Predictions: Keith Lee Will Interrupt The Almighty Celebration
By Mark Justice
On this week’s episode of WWE Raw, there are two scheduled segments but no scheduled matches. Bobby Lashley will celebrate his WWE Championship victory with The Hurt Business, and Braun Strowman will address his issues with Shane McMahon. Will someone abruptly interrupt the Almighty Celebration and will Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon unnecessarily become an official match at WrestleMania 37? These questions need answers.
With that being said, it’s now time to preview and predict the matches and segments that will occur on this week’s episode of WWE Raw.
WWE Raw is scheduled to take place on March 8, 2021, at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT live on the USA Network. Here are some predictions for this week’s show.
5.) Riddle (c) vs. Mustafa Ali (U.S. Championship)
On last week’s WWE Raw, Mustafa Ali defeated Riddle in a non-title match, earning a championship opportunity. Ali will either get that U.S. Title shot on one of these upcoming episodes of Raw or the Fastlane PPV. Whenever that match happens, Riddle will pick up the victory because he recently won the belt in February and will very likely walk with that belt around his waist into this year’s WrestleMania.
Ali was one of the four superstars vying for an opportunity at the United States Championship during the Elimination Chamber Kickoff Show, along with Ricochet, John Morrison, and Elias. Riddle already defeated Morrison, and it is expected that he will battle the other three superstars in the build-up to Fastlane. However, his ultimate opponent at WrestleMania 37 would have to be Keith Lee.
The original match scheduled for Elimination Chamber was: Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Riddle vs. Keith Lee. Keith Lee earned his title shot after defeating Riddle on the Feb. 8 episode of WWE Raw. The aforementioned four superstars battled in a Fatal-4-Way to determine who would replace Lee after Lashley ‘injured’ him. The story is there for Lee to get his title shot and be the one to dethrone Riddle on the road to WrestleMania 37.
Prediction: Riddle
