Who Will Take Team RAW's Last Available Spot?

4 spots filled, 1 remaining on the Team RAW Roster. Tonight is more likely than not the night that RAW will reveal who will take that last spot, through either a match or a simple announcement. It is interesting however, that SmackDown LIVE already has all of their team for the men's match, while RAW hasn't been done like they have. You would think the flagship show has enough starpower to easily choose the five best guys, or even put them in matches, instead of waiting. However, this must mean that General Manager Mick Foley and Commissioner Stephanie McMahon have something up their sleeve for a big reveal tonight, and even, hopefully not, the week after that.

So what could this mean for the rest of the RAW Roster that doesn't have a match announced for them yet at Survivor Series? Only one thing. Opportunity. Though it has not been made clear on how this matter will be settled by WWE, one could assume it could be a match or a simple announcement. However, with the wide variety and selection RAW has to choose from, there are many who know they deserve to fill the slot. Let's take a look at which talent on the RAW Roster have the best shot.

Rusev

The Bulgarian Brute, except for having Roman Reigns go over him, has been pretty good at what he's doing on RAW. Being one of the biggest beasts on RAW, Rusev's heel gimmick is enough to get him noticed, and his in ring work is pretty damn good. His pure domination, like a Team RAW member, Braun Strowman, would loved to be used to RAW's advantage at Survivor Series.

Let's not forget, Rusev was a part of Team Authority's Survivor Series team in 2014, and had a really strong performance, even if things didn't exactly go in the way he would've liked it to be. Though he missed the next year's event due to injury, Rusev was doing extremely well during his first reign as US Champion in early 2015, as his character got over and was a legitimate heel. The point is, Rusev is too big of a beast to be stopped, and is sure to have a strong performance in the match, if he were to be picked to Team RAW.

Neville

The man that gravity forgot has not had much of a spotlight when it comes to big pay-per-view matches, though he is more capable than others of creating great and entertaining moments than some people WWE puts in front of us. His high-flying ability, athleticism and moveset is very fun to watch, making him one of RAW's can't-miss stars, even though he isn't getting a lot of attention on the main roster. The man is just such an interesting thing when he's in the ring, and if Team RAW is looking for some entertainment value on their team, Neville is the way to go.

Like I have said, Neville hasn't really been able to showcase his ability in high stakes matches on pay-per-views on the main roster yet, but I'm not going to give up on it. There's lots of proof if you go back to his matches in PWG, and NXT. He's main event caliber, but is most likely held back because of his size. Nonetheless, it shouldn't be a factor that RAW should hold against him. The brand split was made to make more opportunities after all. Neville is waiting patiently for his chance to showcase himself on a higher stage than RAW, and Survivor Series is a good first step to go on.

Sami Zayn

Like Neville, Zayn is such a great athlete and in ring perfomer, but on the main roster, hasn't been able to showcase his talents on a high stage, except for a WrestleMania Ladder match earlier this year, and his awesome feud with Kevin Owens. Zayn, again like Neville, has been main event caliber in other promotions, such as PWG, ROH and NXT are definitely some of the best of his career, and in the promotion's history. His resilience and all around character is a characteristic that can be used for the greater chance of Team RAW pulling out the victory at Survivor Series. Showcasing is the hardest part, as being booked in matches that are forgettable are the not the way to help Zayn further his chances of being on Team RAW, an option that has little to no risk.

Zayn is a man, or dare I say, a god, of great, entertaining, technical matches that keep your eyes glued on him. He is just fun to watch, and every week his charisma gets stronger and stronger, and so does the matches he has, though it mainly depends on the opponent. The great ones happen when there is someone who can match his fast paced way of wrestling, and not people who have absolutely no chemistry with him. This is mainly the way he's booked, but many of us are waiting for an opportunity so he can deliver on the big stages of WWE, and while we might have to wait longer than we want to, WWE should keep a mental note that Zayn is an option that is almost guaranteed not to fail.

Seth Rollins

Well let's be honest here. There's really no reason that Rollins wouldn't be chosen for Team RAW. He was the brands Number 1 Draft Pick, after all. Not only that, day after day, week after week, Rollins has shown time and time again why he's so popular. His crafty offense, and unpredictible moveset is spectacular to see in the ring, and like many on this list, he's fun to watch. Now that he's more lenient as a face on RAW, his storylines can easily be twisted to waltz his way onto the Team RAW roster. His microphone and ring skills improve each week, and with lots of support behind him, Rollins is definitely the go-to option to Team RAW, who only has one spot left, but can spend it easily on this man. The man has momentum, so why not carry the momentum into Survivor Series?

Seth has always been in the main event of many promotions, and it has really benefited him not only personally, but to the WWE, as he is one of the most popular and talked about stars in the company today. He's creative on both the mic and in the ring, making him much more unique than some of the already confirmed members on Team RAW's roster. Rollins can make almost anything entertaining when he is there, and with the amount of talent he gets to work with every week, its no surprise that he has no intentions of slipping out of the main event anytime soon. As Rollins continues on his path of glory, he is definitely not a bad choice for the brand at all. All he can do is grow the support for the RAW Brand, and build more on his name. Don't forget about what he's done at Survivor Series 2014, you better not. His performance then was before an injury. Now that he's fully back from one, its only in our imagination to see what kind of performance he would make in the match this year.

Who do you think will be Team RAW's Final Member?

How RAW Can Save Itself after Clash of Champions

Hello everyone, It's the sleeper hold member of the RestHoldParty, Bowen Holder, back with another little blog explaining how RAW can book the wrestlers that were at Clash of Champions without murdering their credibility, so let's start!

Alicia Fox

well, to be honest there isn't much they can do with her. Maybe just have her lay low and develop an actual character before investing more time into her. She's being used now to put Nia Jax over, and I'm okay with that. Nia Jax is the next Kharma, but not as scary and probably just as nice off screen. Anyways, Alicia Fox needs to get some decisive wins and challenge for the womens title once before maybe getting traded to SmackDown in favor of someone from NXT or Becky Lynch. There really isn't much she can do that could put her back on track for the Women's title on either brand.

Nia Jax

Nia Jax has been on a roll as of late and I think she needs to get a victory over Sasha or Bayley and contend for the women's title soon. Sasha, Bayley, and Charlotte contedning for the belt is getting boring, and it seems that the WWE doesn't want to put that much time into her. I'd say let her have a match with someone who isn't Alicia or a jobber and beat them, grab a mic, and say it how it is. It's time someone new got their hands on that - gold? - Red? - um... you know what I mean.

Sheamus and Cesaro

These two put on one of the best matches on the card, and proved that they are a threat to the new United States Champion, Roman Reigns, by putting on a clinic in what I would say is my favorite mid card match so far this year. I personally see Sheamus getting really pissed at Cesaro and just tearing him apart and having a really meaningful rivalry out of this, and I think it could work out if done correctly. Both men are former United States champions, and I think this rivalry could put them both in the line for that title. Sheamus won the WWE Championship almost a year ago, and ever since then has been booked pretty leniently. Cesaro has had a bumpy road in the WWE his entire career, and I hope he can get to the top of the WWE soon.

TJ Perkins and The Brian Kendrick 

These two might not have chemistry just yet, but I believe if the WWE keeps this rivalry going, we can see a new heel cruiser-weight emerge and come to Kendrick's aid. Whether this be a jealous Rich Swann or a game Sin Cara, who has been hinting a heel turn ever since the Lucha Dragons just up and broke up outta nowhere. Speaking of the Lucha Dragons... where's Kalisto at?

"The Big Dawg" Roman Reigns

I like how the WWE drooped Roman down the the midcard, as it seems he has gained a few fans with this part of his career. I think Roman should continue with Rusev until maybe Sami Zayn or one of the BO7 Series guys pops into the #1 contender spot. I do believe that Roman could turn heel tonight on RAW, belittling the US title and attacking a Face towards the top of the midcard, maybe attacking Mick Foley or someone else with authority could make that transition to heel work out.

Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins

Kevin Owens is doing very well with the Universal Championship, and his reign is already better than Finn Balor's (hehehe). I see Kevin feuding with Chris Jericho because Jericho made Owens look like he needed him, or maybe feuding with Sami for the belt because it's Sami freaking Zayn and we need to see Sami win the belt from Owens eventually. Rollins might need to just have matches away from that title for now, and give other people a chance with it. I do see WWE eventually having their big 3 be Owens, Rollins, and Balor on Raw, and Styles, Cena, and ???? on SmackDown Live.

anyways, that was a little blog for you guys. Remember to check out all the other blogs on the site, and check out our amino page for exclusive stuff there. I hope you all enjoyed, and yeah, stay cool I guess...

Roman Reigns to turn heel?!

Welcome guys to another blog on Rest Hold Party. Today I've been informed that Roman Reigns might turn heel soon! I might have to believe this is a mericle considering his crumby feud with Rusev. I like Reigns now, but he'd be so much better with a heel bold edge. The fans have been begging for the turn, and they might just get it. It wouldn't be much a surprise either, because he was in The Shield before being on his own, and The Shield might get back together! There are a crazy amount of booking possibilities, and hopefully the creative team take advantage!
