It might be the day before InDex's wedding but tonight's show probably won't even bring that up! Instead we're live from the TD Garden Arena in Boston with a more full card for Raw than usual. Announced for this week we've got...
WWE Championship: Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Randy Orton
United States Championship: Damian Priest puts out an open challenge
Charlotte Flair vs. Shayna Baszler
Rhea Ripley vs. Natalya
New Day, Mansoor & Mustafa Ali vs. AJ Styles, Omos, Mace & T-Bar
Tune in to see how many of these matches actually end up happening, tonight!
Edit: Also apparently Big E will be there!

Yeah the last time they announced a card in advance like... one of the four matches ended up happening and it ended in a DQ in like 2 minutes... let's see if any of this survives Vince constantly ripping up the script  |

The Orton/Lashley match probably does happen in some fashion, since that was panic booked after AEW did their massive rating. Everything else though, is disposable.

So they spent half of the last show building a tag team title match that it's not happening. Wow.

I kind of wonder, between the Dynamite rating last week and NFL this week, if they might give Orton the title for a week or two to try to give the show an anything-can-happen feel.

Somebody is currently scheduled to be all over Raw per SRS and Fightful: {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Big E is going to be on RAW and showing up in multiple segments, apparently. Makes me wonder if he cashes in... |

From Big E on Twitter: "Let’s let that cat out of the bag…I intend on cashing in my Money in the Bank contract tonight and cashing in to become WWE Champion." |

We'll see. It does feel like they may hot shot a few things tonight. |

I do wonder, if we're truly doing the Big E / Lashley thing, who the hell is beating Roman then. That basically just leaves SmackDown a barren wasteland where you've built the guy up for the past year to put over nobody who would actually benefit from it.

I swear, if Roman loses the belt to Brock Lesnar… |

Man, they really are worried about Football season/concerned about the demo loss last week/scared of (insert other Monday show here). Delete as appropriate. |

They've put themselves in a no win situation. You either do some sort of BS finish where nothing matters and Big E keeps the briefcase which is going to make the audience feel cheated. Or you pull the trigger which means you're hot shotting when you should in theory do a longer build for Big E with him getting more wins and a longer heads up for him cashing in.

Hey, Faye Jackson, arch nemesis/thirst baiter of Big E, what do you think about possible events?

Apparently Joe was penned for Raw tonight, but likely scrapped due to the injury.

At this rate, WWE is going to tweet out in a few hours - "Breaking News: Big E is going to win our world title tonight. Please put butts in our seats."

I mean, at least it’d be better than “There’s a new faction tonight who will shake up the corporate structure of WWE! What are their motivations?!” and end up hitting a random power generator or something. |
