After a historic Clash at the Castle in the United Kingdom, WWE Raw will bring the fallouts from the PLE and also start the builds toward Extreme Rules. A Steel Cage Match for the United States Title should be the headliner of the night while WWE Hall of Famer Edge will be looking for answers from Dominik after the latter’s turn-on. Also, a new challenger for Raw Women’s Title should be crowned on the show that takes place at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
WWE Raw: Spoiler On Former Universal Champion’s Return On September 5 Episode
Last week on WWE Raw, Bobby Lashley defeated The Miz to retain his United States Championship. The match witnessed interferences from Miz’s kidnapper Dexter Lumis from the week prior who appeared on the roof to provide a distraction. Lashley capitalized on the situation and made Miz tap out with his Hurt Lock submission.
Obviously, The Hollywood A-Lister didn’t take things, lightly and thereby continued his persuasion to the prestigious mid-card title. From his vacation spot with his wife, Maryse, he sent a video via Twitter addressing Lashley and thereby issuing a challenge for this week’s WWE Raw.
The two-time Grand Slam Champion doesn’t want any interferences and hence wanted to lock horns with Lashley inside a Steel Cage,
“The fact that the #USChampionship is not represented at #WWECastle is a slap in the face to every legend who has ever held it. Maryse and I may be on vacation, but this Monday it’s back to business. #WWERaw Lashley vs. Miz for the US Title inside a steel cage. #NoDistractions”
The All-Mighty took the least time to respond to the challenge with a positive mind as he made the match, official on WWE’s flagship show. WWE’s official website has also since been promoting the match for tonight’s episode.
WWE Star Sasha Banks Revealed How She Overcame Drinking Problems
Dominik Mysterio has become a heel on WWE Raw following an attack on his father, Rey Mysterio, and WWE Hall of Famer Edge. The latter duo defeated Judgment Day (Damian Priest and Finn Balor) in a tag team match at the Clash at the Castle event from the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales.
Things went pretty great for the former tag team champions until Dominik delivered a low blow to Edge then clotheslined his father. He took off his shirt and walked to the back with fans booing him. Judgment Day members were very happy with Dom finally showing his true colors.
Reflecting on the set of incidents, Edge reacted on Twitter by thanking the fans of the UK for their warm reception and he also thanked Rey Mysterio for allowing him to be a luchador for a night. The 48-year-old superstar then also sent a warning to Dominik by saying that he will be live, on WWE Raw to seek answers from the latter,
“Cardiff. The UK. Thank you. Tonight you gave me something that will live in my heart forever. I think you can see what it means to me. We’re in it together. And I got to pay respect to Rey and be a luchador for a minute. Ok, now that I got that off my chest. See ya Monday Dom.”
WWE Raw Preview (02/09/22): Bayley to get a title match opportunity?
At Clash at the Castle, the team of Bayley, Iyo Sky, and Dakota Kai were victorious over the team of Bianca Belair, Alexa Bliss, and Asuka in a six-woman tag team match. The chaotic encounter ended with SKY hitting a moonsault on Belair after which Bayley got the pin-fall win for her team by pinning the WWE Raw Women’s Champion.
With this win, the heel trio would look forward to dominating the women’s division, moving forward. WWE has also provided them with the name Damage Control and a new theme song, hinting at some positive changes in the future despite the fact that they have come up short in the finals of WWE Women’s Tag Team Tournament.
Besides, Bayley was victorious over WWE Raw Women’s Champion at the bygone PLE and thus she can make a strong case for a title match against the EST of the WWE. This should probably be the first match to be announced for Extreme Rules PLE set for October 8th.
