WWE Raw: 8 Things To Expect Tonight (May 9)

8. AJ's Revenge

Roman Reigns is currently the most protected superstars on the entire roster, and as such, we haven't seen AJ Styles really gain the upper hand since losing at Payback. His six-man tag team lost on SmackDown, and he was slammed through the announce table on the previous Raw.

Logic would dictate that Reigns will continue to look strong until Extreme Rules, as WWE would hate to see their golden boy one-upped by a smaller indie legend.

On the other hand, Styles was allowed to dominate at Payback. Sure, he lost the match, but it at least demonstrated that creative aren't entirely averse to allowing him momentary domination.

I think we'll see another example tonight. AJ deserves to stand tall at the end of the show, and still needs revenge for that announce table assault last week.
