WWE Raw Predictions: Drew McIntyre Will Decimate The Entire Locker Room
By Mark Justice
On this week’s episode of WWE Raw, there are two scheduled segments and one scheduled match. The two scheduled segments are: RAW Women’s Champion Asuka and Rhea Ripley’s WrestleMania 37 contract signing and The Miz and John Morrison’s special edition of The Dirt Sheet to premiere the music video for their new “Hey Hey Hop Hop!” song for Bad Bunny. The scheduled match is: Riddle (c) vs. Sheamus in a non-title match.
WWE Champion Bobby Lashley also approached several Superstars in the locker room and promised to give them a WWE Title shot if they can take Drew McIntyre out before their WrestleMania match. The superstars in the locker room for Lashley’s offer were Ricochet, Humberto Carillo, Drew Gulak, Akira Tozawa, and Lucha House Party. Will anyone earn WWE Champion Bobby Lashley’s bounty by taking Drew McIntyre out in exchange for a title shot?
The WWE is two weeks away from WrestleMania 37. The six official WWE Raw matches at WrestleMania 37 are as follows: Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Drew McIntyre for the WWE Title, Asuka (c) vs. Rhea Ripley for the Raw Women’s Title Bray Wyatt (w/Alexa Bliss) vs. Randy Orton, Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon, Bad Bunny (w/Damian Priest) vs. The Miz (w/John Morrison), and The New Day (c) vs. AJ Styles & Omos for the Raw Tag Team Titles.
The other two WWE Raw matches that could be added to the match card are: Riddle (c) vs. Sheamus for the United States Title and Shayna Baszler & Nia Jax (c) vs. Naomi & Lana for the Women’s Tag Team Titles. Those two remaining title matches could be made official on this episode or on the go-home show next week. 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 29, 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.) Xavier Woods (w/Kofi Kingston) vs. AJ Styles (w/Omos) [Grudge Match]
On last week’s WWE Raw, Kofi Kingston defeated AJ Styles via pinfall with the SOS after a trombone distraction from Xavier Woods at ringside. It is expected that Xavier Woods will now wrestle AJ Styles this week, especially since the WWE is probably saving Omos for the big tag title match at WrestleMania 37. Like Kofi did last week, Woods will defeat Styles off a distraction from Kofi Kingston, adding fuel to the fire before Styles & Omos’ inevitable coronation at ‘Mania.
Clearly, Kofi Kingston’s victory over Styles has already set precedence for how this match will turn out. The crux of this tag storyline involves Styles’ unfamiliarity with Omos as a person. The New Day exposed their friendship by proving that Styles does not even know Omos’ favorite color, ice cream, or professional wrestler. Whether that lack of familiarity between Styles and Omos becomes a factor in their title match at ‘Mania remains to be seen.
Prediction: Xavier Woods
