WWE Raw: Potential Spoilers, Rumors, News and Preview for February 8

Brock Lesnar will once again be the centerpiece of WWE Raw.

The Beast Incarnate is set to appear on Monday's show, just a week after Dean Ambrose invaded his personal space and urged the big man to take him to Suplex City. Having Lesnar around once more will aid WWE in hyping a Fastlane event that needs some added momentum.

The audience will be curious to see if Ambrose and Roman Reigns' alliance shows further cracks, what direction WWE is going with the Divas Championship picture and whether a certain bearded native of Washington state is heading back to Raw.

Seattle will play host to the post-Super Bowl edition of Raw. As for what to expect on Monday night, events from SmackDown and Raw, backstage reports and James Wortman's five-point preview on WWE.com offer plenty of clues.

News, Potential Spoilers

WWE finally received some good news on the injury front. Sin Cara is back in action after dislocating his shoulder in December. He and Kalisto teamed up at a house show in San Jose, California, on Feb. 6, according to CageMatch.net.

The high-flyer also posted a photo of himself at the event on Instagram:

The bigger news, though, is that Daniel Bryan is reportedly poised to step into the spotlight on Raw.

PWInsider's Mike Johnson reported, "Bryan was spotted today at Phoenix Airport flying to Seattle. In checking with WWE sources, we are told he is scheduled for this week's Raw taping."

Bryan hasn't wrestled since April. He hasn't been on WWE programming since he served as a judge on WWE Tough Enough. Even just popping in for a promo would be a welcome sight.

Alberto Del Rio is still suffering from a back injury, but it doesn't appear to be serious. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (h/t Wrestling Inc), Del Rio is not 100 percent healthy but is good enough to compete. 

With his latest match against Kalisto looming, one would imagine that WWE will give him a light workload to allow him to heal more beforehand.

The company won't need to lean on Del Rio so much anyway. It has a beast at the ready. As James Caldwell of PWTorch noted, "Brock Lesnar is advertised for another Raw episode continuing to build to the No. 1 contender match against Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns at Fastlane in two weeks."

Sheamus is on the bill, too, despite dealing with tendinitis of late.

Fastlane Build Continues

Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch seem to have both a rivalry and an alliance going at the same time.

They fought alongside each other to fend off Banks' old teammates, Tamina Snuka and Naomi, on last week's Raw. Days later on SmackDown, though, Banks made it clear that she wasn't Lynch's friend, barking at her fellow Divas Championship hopeful.

In his five-point preview, Wortman wrote, "Will this uneasy union pay off on Raw?"

The evolution of that relationship looks to be something WWE will focus on before Fastlane and WrestleMania. That could mean a full babyface turn for Banks in the near future.

While Banks and Lynch may not form a long-term team, it's looking more and more like R-Truth and Goldust will.

The Bizarre One has been trying to recruit R-Truth for the last few weeks, only to scare him off with his eccentric behavior. Wortman teased that more of this story is yet to come when he wrote, "Something tells us he'll make another attempt to win Truth over on Raw."

Meanwhile, WWE continues to tease that the partnership between Ambrose and Reigns will dissolve. The two friends keep inadvertently colliding during tag matches. Is that just a means to add suspense to the Triple Threat at Fastlane, or is it actual foreshadowing?

Either way, the company clearly wants to toy with the audience. 

Expect more of that on Monday's Raw. Wortman asked, "Will the promise of a WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match against Triple H at WrestleMania drive the best friends apart physically and psychologically?"

That element of this narrative is key to creating suspense for Fastlane. Reigns still feels like the obvious winner, but more glimpses of a split between these two will generate more intrigue. That and Lesnar's involvement will be the heart of Monday's Raw.
