New WWE Champion Could Be Crowned On Raw
Backstage meetings: Survivor Series plan already in doubt.
The new WWE Champion could be crowned on Raw next Monday. Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Radio is reporting that backstage meetings are going on right now, and plans may change in regards to how WWE crown a new Champion. The company had announced a tournament for Survivor Series, but Alvarez suggests that big surprises could be happening as soon as Raw next Monday. "There are meetings going on as we speak, there may be changes, there could be big surprises as early as Raw on monday," the respected insider said. This is following the news that Seth Rollins has suffered a knee injury that will keep him out for six to nine months. The timing really couldn't be any worse for WWE. Their initial reaction was to announce the tournament, with a new Champion being crowned at Survivor Series. However, it sounds like a bit of extra thought may have made them consider making the change sooner. A big angle on Raw, potentially with a new heel champion, would set up a big sell for a babyface like Roman Reigns pushing towards the title at Survivor Series. Raw is certainly going to be very interesting next week, do not miss it!
