WWE Raw Preview: WWE Raw comes hot on the heels of NXT TakeOver: In Your House.
The special saw Charlotte Flair lose her title to Io Shirai in a thrilling triple threat match. Rhea Ripley was also involved in the clash, but the Queen losing out is a big deal.
The Queen will appear on this week’s WWE Raw, and that is where we start the preview.
Charlotte vs champ
Asuka will again face off against Charlotte on Raw after last week’s battle was interrupted by Nia Jax.
Jax is the No.1 contender for Asuka’s title and it will be interesting to see how this clash goes.
Charlotte would be upset at losing the crown to Shirai and she could reignite her rivalry with Asuka on Monday night.
Tag title celebrations
Sasha Banks and Bayley defeated Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross to reclaim their Women’s tag titles. Banks and Bayley normally appear on SmackDown, but they will make their way to Raw.
The pair celebrated wildly after becoming champions again, and something similar could be in store on Monday.
Banks and Bayley have a lot to say on Raw, and it will be interesting to see what is next for the champs.
McIntyre to speak?
Last week saw Drew McIntyre get caught in a full nelson from Bobby Lashley, and the All Mighty didn’t let go.
McIntyre faces Lashley at Backlash, and the champion could have something to say about all this. The Scot has defeated all his rivals since becoming the WWE champion, but Lashley with MVP by his side could be a different story.
Edge speaks out?
Edge and Randy Orton continue their rivalry at Backlash and we could hear more from the Rated-R Superstar on Raw.
Orton lost to Edge at WrestleMania 36 in a Last Man Standing match. However, their clash at Backlash will be a pure wrestling match, and that could work in the favour of Orton since he has been in action a lot more than Edge.
