One of the main highlights of tomorrow’s Monday Night RAW is the triple threat match. AJ Styles, Keith Lee, and Riddle will face each other to determine the number one contender for Drew McIntyre‘s WWE Championship.

As there are three contenders, the possibilities are also three times those in a normal match. Noticeably, all three superstars are ‘new’ to the red brand. So any push to either will amplify their credibility.

As of now, there are a few possible outcomes for each of the participants. We will discuss three of them, starting with least to highly likely.

Possibility #3 Riddle becomes the number 1 contender for WWE Championship

Riddle defeated multi-time World Champion Sheamus last week. Both were members of the winning team RAW. Although fans mostly rooted for Sheamus, Riddle secured the win.

Riddle was reported to be pushed by WWE; hence, he became Riddle from Matt Riddle. However, it might be too early for him to go for a world title. Even if he wins, it will be due to some outside interference like RETRIBUTION or Braun Strowman.

Possibility #2 Keith Lee wins and turns heel with The Hurt Business

Last week, Keith Lee and Bobby Lashley faced each other for the opportunity. Lee was declared the Winner after MVP interfered in the match.

It seemed like things between Lee and Hurt Business were not over yet, and the former can lose the Triple Threat match due to Hurt Business’ interference. However, there is another possibility of Lee’s heel turn.

Lee, as a face on the main roster, has achieved nothing significant. The former NXT Champion could use a heel turn, and what better way to do it than joining the Hurt Business?

Hurt Business might leave Keith Lee and attack AJ Styles and Riddle during the match. If this happens, Lee can win the match, turn heel, and join the faction. With Lee’s inclusion, Hurt Business will be stronger than ever.

Possibility #1 AJ Styles wins and becomes the number one contender

Before coming to RAW, AJ Styles lost his Intercontinental Championship. Since then, he has been trying to find his footing on RAW.

After Team Raw won under his “captaincy”, Styles has been more confident than ever. The Fiend interrupted his match with former champion Randy Orton. Styles took advantage of Orton’s distraction and hit the phenomenal elbow for the win.

Since Orton will be pre-occupied with The Fiend, Styles is highly likely to win the match. McIntyre also needs a worthy challenger like Styles. Both of them have a similar career graph, fighting all over the world.
