WWE Raw Predictions: Drew McIntyre Will Team Up With Sheamus
By Mark Justice
On this week’s episode of WWE Raw, there are no scheduled segments but there are two scheduled matches: Riddle (c) vs. Mustafa Ali for the United States Championship and Hurt Business (c) vs. The New Day for the Raw Tag Team Championships. Mustafa Ali earned his title shot by pinning Riddle two weeks ago, and The New Day invoked their ‘rematch clause’ from WWE TLC 2020. Will new champions be crowned on this episode of WWE Raw?
With that being addressed, 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 15, 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.) Hurt Business (c) vs. The New Day [Raw Tag Team Championships]
On last week’s WWE Raw, Xavier Woods defeated Shelton Benjamin via pinfall with a Small Package. At WWE TLC 2020, Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston lost the Raw Tag Team Championships to Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander. It seems that Woods and Kingston are invoking their rematch clause for the titles. Although rematch clauses do not exist anymore, there are really no other challengers for Hurt Business in this infinitesimal Raw Tag Team Division.
It would be regressive to give back the Raw Tag Team Championships to The New Day. Instead, Hurt Business should retain the titles and will very likely defend the titles against a super makeshift tag team at WrestleMania 37. Some examples of plausible makeshift tag teams that come to mind are: Drew McIntyre and Sheamus, AJ Styles and Omos, and Braun Strowman and Shane McMahon. The latter is most likely after the tag title match that took place two weeks ago.
Prediction: Hurt Business
