4 potential surprises that could happen during tonight's episode of Raw (6th June, 2019)

Tonight's installment of Monday Night Raw, which will take place at the SAP Center in San Jose, California, will be the first WWE show since last Friday's Super Showdown event in Saudi Arabia.

During tonight's show, we should get a follow up on the Money in the Bank contract situation, as Brock Lesnar failed to cash in on Seth Rollins during last Friday's opening match.

Tonight's Raw will also feature a Tag Team Championship match, as the current champs Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins will defend their titles against The Revival.

We'll also see a Miz TV segment, which will feature The Miz interviewing the current United States Champion Samoa Joe. So, we should get a better idea of what's next for Joe heading into the next WWE pay per view, which is being called Stomping Grounds.

On top of all that, we could see a bit of a follow up to the Super Showdown main event, which ended up being a complete disaster.


#4 The Undertaker appears

Unfortunately, the long-awaited dream match between The Undertaker and Bill Goldberg didn't go according to plan, as both men ended up botching a few spots, one of which led to the former WCW World Heavyweight Champion getting knocked out, thus suffering a concussion.

Apparently, both men were frustrated with how the match turned out, which isn't much of a surprise to hear. On top of that, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, both pro wrestling legends are eager to get back in the ring to make up for their sloppy main event in Jeddah.

Due to the fact that Goldberg suffered a concussion during Friday's match, it's highly unlikely that we'll see him during tonight's Raw. However, could we find out what's next for The Undertaker? It's quite possible, especially now that WWE is trying to boost its weekly TV ratings.

#3 The Revival win Raw Tag Team titles

WWE has officially announced that The Revival (Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder) will challenge Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins for the red brand's Tag Team Titles during tonight's installment of Monday Night Raw.

Since winning the Raw Titles, the company hasn't done much with Ryder and Hawkins, as they've rarely appeared on television. So, tonight could be the night that WWE decides to put the belts on a brand new tag team.

Of course, The Revival have made it clear that they don't want to be in WWE anymore, but if the company gives them a pretty good push as the new Raw Tag Team Champions, they might be more interested in re-signing there when their current contracts expire.

But, then again, it might not change their minds one bit. However, it's hard to argue against the fact that they'd be great Champions if given the opportunity to shine.

#2 The Miz challenges for US Title at Stomping Grounds

The Miz, who is a former United States Champion himself, will host yet another installment of Miz TV, which will feature the current US Champ Samoa Joe.

As of this writing, Joe doesn't have an announced opponent for the upcoming Stomping Grounds show on June 23. So, it's quite possible that The Miz will end up challenging for the WWE United States Championship in less than two weeks in Tacoma, Washington.

If The Miz doesn't end up being Joe's next challenger, then it's pretty likely that the new number one contender will make an appearance during this segment.

Aside from The Miz, the only other logical challenger is Braun Strowman, who is coming off of a big win over Bobby Lashley at Super Showdown. So, we could end up seeing The Monster Among Men face off with Samoa Joe during Miz TV.

#1 Brock Lesnar successfully cashes in

WWE has teased a Brock Lesnar cash in for several weeks now, and so far, The Beast hasn't cashed in his Money in the Bank contract. But, that could change during tonight's episode of Monday Night Raw.

Following last Friday's Super Showdown event, WWE announced that Baron Corbin will once again challenge Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship at the Stomping Grounds PPV. However, that main event isn't exactly something that fans are dying to see, which could lead to it being changed tonight via a Lesnar cash in.

If WWE wants to give a boost to their upcoming PPV, and on top of that, a temporary boost to their ratings, then they should have Brock Lesnar successfully cash in his Money in the Bank contract during tonight's episode of Raw.

As of this writing, Brock Lesnar isn't being advertised for the show, so if he shows up, it'll be a complete surprise.
