WWE Raw five-point preview: August 8th, 2016

WWE Raw will come live tonight from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California as we are inching closer to the Summerslam PPV. Now, the blockbuster match at the PPV between Randy Orton and Brock Lesnar took a whole new turn with both the featured superstars trespassing on their opponents’ shows. The Viper invaded on Last week’s Raw to deliver an RKO to the beast whereas Brock Lesnar made his presence felt on the blue brand by returning the favor with an F-5 to Randy Orton. So, without further due, The WWE Raw General Manager, Mick Foley has invited the blue brand’s GM Daniel Bryan to sort things out. So, what will go down to hype things more for Summerslam on Raw?

 

 

What do Foley and Bryan have in store?

It was evident that neither Randy nor Brock Lesnar is going to play by the rules and they straight took the path to trespass on their opponent’s brand. So, WWE has no choice but to announce Mick Foley inviting Daniel Bryan officially to address the matter when they posted the below: “The lead-up to the anticipated SummerSlam clash between Randy Orton and Brock Lesnar pitted Raw and SmackDown Live against each other in a whole new way this past week. After The Viper invaded Monday night’s hottest show to attack The Beast, Lesnar retaliated against WWE’s Apex Predator the following night and put Team Blue on notice. Now, Raw General Manager Mick Foley has invited SmackDown Live General Manager Daniel Bryan to Monday night’s hottest show for what’s sure to be an eventful meeting.”

Expect the meeting to end up less in a friendly matter and more to heat the rivalry between the red and blue brand.

Sean “Puff Daddy” Comb to appear on Raw

Earlier it was announced, that the international star and the Rolling Stone member Sean “Puff Daddy” Comb will be appearing on WWE Raw. Puff is known for his bad boy image. So expect something mischievous when he shows up on the show. He is not unfamiliar to the WWE Universe. Back in 2013, he performed in the Metlife stadium in NY, NJ on the grandest occasion of Wrestlemania 29.

Short-lived dream for Sasha Banks?

Sasha Banks is having a hell of a time inside and outside the ring. After winning the championship from Charlotte, she was busy changing the belt with her custom plate whereas she is rumored to be married with her boyfriend and WWE costume Designer, Sarath Ton. However, the numbers game is still in favor of Charlotte and Co. Last week, the former champion pinned Banks with the Natural Selection. Expect the boss to turn the tables in her own side, this week.

Seth Rollins has to re-think with strategy

Finn Balor made a spectacular debut on Raw. He won consecutive two huge matches and made it to the first ever WWE Universal Championship match pinning Roman Reigns, straight. If that’s not all, he is rumored to win the first ever WWE Universal Championship, as well at Summerslam. Last week on WWE Raw, Balor made “The Man” running away with kicks to him. Now, all the searchlights being sucked by his opponents expect Seth Rollins to bounce back on course to the biggest event of the summer.

Is Big E out of action?

After facing the vicious attack in the hands of Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows last week on WWE Raw, Big E got injured and WWE addressed the injury on their official website. The injury may be a part of the storyline to project The Club even stronger now that the powerhouse of the tag champs is likely to be absent. With the numbers game not favoring The New Day, expect the announcement of the tag team championship match on WWE Raw, tonight. The Club will continue dominating the show with their strong booking.
