In many ways, the ongoing WWE Title Tournament has been a blessing in disguise for Vince McMahon and co.. The loss of Seth Rollins, arguably the best performer on the entire roster, is obviously a huge blow - but his vacating of the title has forced the booking team to streamline the main event scene and make some genuinely great match-ups. This week's Raw should see the starkest evidence of this, with all four quarter finals very capable of delivering in terms of pure in-ring excitement. It's genuinely hard to pick a weak link from Reigns vs. Cesaro, Ambrose vs. Ziggler, Del Rio vs. Kalisto, and Owens vs. Neville. Away from the tournament, the show should also see a general build to Survivor Series' filler matches (the card only has a handful of booked matches at the moment, remember), as well as a potential UFC reference, and the advertised appearance of two major stars...
10. Undertaker And Kane To Appear
Both Brothers of Destruction have been advertised for this week's Raw, which should give WWE a much-needed ratings boost (for their segment of the show, at least). It seems obvious to have Kane and Taker on the go-home show before Survivor Series, hyping their upcoming match with the Wyatts, but given their sporadic appearances - particularly in Undertaker's case - it was no guarantee. Now it looks as though their appearances are locked in. The pair will probably play a limited role, but their mere presence should be enough to give Raw a "big" feel - an absolute necessity with so much of the card taken up by WWE Title Tournament matches, some featuring decidedly smaller names such as Neville and Kalisto.
