Raw Five-Point Preview: April 27, 2015
Several Superstars were battered and bruised in the wake of Extreme Rules, but they’ll all be bringing the fight to what’s sure to be an action-packed edition of Raw. As the WWE Universe waits to see how Randy Orton will respond to Seth Rollins’ WWE World Heavyweight Title defense and rumors about the return of the King of the Ring Tournament continue to swirl around WWE Headquarters, WWE.com has some theories on what we can expect tonight at 8/7 CT on USA Network.
1. Will The Viper get retribution against Seth Rollins?
The RKO might have been banned in Extreme Rules’ WWE World Heavyweight Championship Steel Cage Match main event, but that didn’t stop Seth Rollins from using the maneuver to incapacitate The Viper and crawl out of the structure with his title reign intact.
How will WWE’s Apex Predator respond to “The Future of WWE” on Raw? Additionally, after Orton dropped the bout’s “Gatekeeper,” Kane, with an RKO, might WWE’s Director of Operations retaliate somehow?

2. A new hope for The New Day?
Despite those infamous chants and their increasingly strained relationship with the WWE Universe, The New Day became the new WWE Tag Team Champions at Extreme Rules, stealing a victory from Cesaro & Tyson Kidd.
Although it’s unlikely the WWE Universe will change its opinion of Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods & Big anytime soon — especially after their underhanded tactics last night — the trio has cemented themselves as the most dominant force in WWE’s competitive tag team division.
What’s next for The New Day? Moreover, how will Cesaro & Kidd respond to their defeat?
3. Will Rusev make Cena say “I quit”?
In WWE’s first televised Russian Chain Match, John Cena valiantly defeated Rusev to defend the United States Championship, earning his second straight victory over The Super Athlete and continuing his impressive reign with the star-spangled title.
Rusev was furious in defeat, lambasting Lana who, after acknowledging Chicago’s raucous “We want Lana” chants, was ejected from the arena by The Hero of the Russian Federation. Following Rusev’s rant, Lana met with The Authority, securing Rusev an “I Quit” Match against Cena at WWE Payback on Sunday, May 17.
How will Rusev prepare to give his Cena his first “I Quit” Match defeat? Does Lana have as-yet-revealed motives? We’ll learn more about what lies ahead for Cena and Rusev tonight.

4. Who or what will Dean Ambrose destroy tonight?
After likely tearing portions of The Windy City apart in his Chicago Street Fight with Luke Harper and earning a decisive victory over the unsettling goliath, The Lunatic Fringe will be on the prowl when Raw rolls through Green Bay.
Poll: Where did Ambrose and Harper go?
In a WWE.com exclusive, Ambrose affirmed that after his big win last night, his career is “back on track,” which could only mean big things for Raw. Might we see Ambrose mix it up with Harper once again? Will someone else incur his wrath? What weapons will the unstable Superstar get his hands on next? You won’t want to miss what this veritable force of nature does next.
5. Will Sheamus’ Extreme Rules actions bite him in the “arse”?
In what might be the most humiliating moment of Dolph Ziggler’s career, the incapacitated Showoff got a face-full of Sheamus’ pale posterior at Extreme Rules, even though he defeated the Irish aggressor in the night’s bizarre “Kiss Me Arse” Match. After scoring a surprise pinfall over Sheamus, the cheeky victor fell victim to an underhanded ambush from the sore loser, who proceeded to lower his backside onto Ziggler’s face in a sickening message to all of WWE’s underdogs.
Yet, Ziggler isn’t one to stay silent about injustices, nor is he one to let cruel misdeeds go unanswered. Will The Showoff get some payback tonight?
