Monday nights have been synonymous with RAW, the flagship WWE show for well over two decades now. This week will be no different as the company builds towards Money in the Bank and beyond.
RAW has already announced two matches and two massive segments for the upcoming show, and thus far the lineup looks awesome. Ultimately, it all depends on how all the elements come together, how WWE writers script out the ebbs and flow of the show.
So, with that said, here's the official RAW preview served hot and fresh. Be sure to leave a comment and let us know your thoughts.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
#5 The WWE Champion confuses us regarding an advertised RAW match
Trending
On the one hand, WWE Champion Bobby Lashley has informed us that we'll see a rematch between him and Xavier Woods on RAW. On the other hand, WWE has announced that there will be a tag team match between The New Day and Bobby Lashley & MVP. Well, whatever the case may be, the best thing about the situation is that both cases are awesome.
We saw a very different Kingston on last week's show, who seemed a lot more focused, a lot more intense, and a lot more serious. MVP brought out the best in him and this should translate into a fiery feud going into Money in the Bank this year.
One has to wonder if WWE will make Lashley look absolutely bulletproof going into the upcoming big pay-per-view, winning every single match, be it singles or tag team, or if MVP will take the pin on RAW this week?
Now, it doesn't seem like Kofi Kingston will dethrone Bobby Lashley for the WWE Championship anytime soon, but the build has been pretty entertaining.
#4 John Morrison and Ricochet go to war on WWE RAW
Caught the crazy WWE RAW match last week between John Morrison and Ricochet? How crazy is it that these two fine gentlemen used to mix it up on Lucha Underground once upon a time and now they are both on RAW!
That one spot from last week's match went viral and the WWE Universe definitely wants something similar. How will Ricochet and John Morrison be able to outshine what they did last week on RAW? Let's find out then!
#3 WWE RAW will see all the Money in the Bank contestants under the very same roof
Drew McIntyre, Riddle, Ricochet, and John Morrison will all enter the same ring for a special Miz TV segment. This is how this WWE RAW segment has been advertised:
This could be the most must-see and most MONEY edition of Miz TV yet.
Of course, quips will be exchanged, but in all likelihood, as is the case with every single episode of Miz TV, fists are likely to fly. Only this time, The Miz may need to scurry away in his wheelchair.
#2 Charlotte Flair to talk about her WWE future?
One of the WWE RAW segments advertised this week, which is sure to raise eyebrows, concerns Charlotte Flair providing a medical update. We do hope that this is a storyline-related update following Rhea Ripley's sneak attack. For Flair to take time away from WWE at this stage would deplete an already weak RAW Women's division.
#1 Randy Orton could return to RAW angry, seeking revenge
The dysfunctional duo comprising of Riddle and Randy Orton was never meant to work, but lo and behold, they are perhaps the most exciting team on the RAW roster. That said, we've seen how Orton can get worked up over the smallest things, and because Riddle was responsible for him losing his WWE Money in the Bank spot, he is probably quite furious.
Will Randy Orton return to WWE RAW this week to reconcile with his tag team partner? Or will he hold Riddle responsible for the fact that he came up short in the RAW main event last week, costing him his opportunity? We will find out soon!
