It's the last RAW before Backlash, which will contain THE GREATEST WRESTLING MATCH EVER, and surely WWE have never lied to us before, right? 馃槈
Last night, Charlotte Flair lost #12. Tonight, can The Queen go some way to getting an opportunity at #13? Following last week's finish that saw Nia Jax distract Asuka to give Flair a count out win, The Empress of Tomorrow will face off with Charlotte once again. Will Asuka go into her Backlash title match with Jax full of momentum, or will Flair bounce back from losing the NXT Women's Title at Takeover: In Your House?
We have two talk show segments tonight - the Peep Show returns as Christian hosts his former partner (and "brother") Edge to preview the alleged GREATEST WRESTLING MATCH EVER with Randy Orton on Sunday, while MVP has a biased guest on The VIP Lounge in Bobby Lashley, who will challenge Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship at Backlash.
The IIconics were getting prepared to mount another challenge at Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross for the Women's Tag Team Titles, but now Billie Kay and Peyton Royce must look towards a different target, as the inaugural champions Bayley and Sasha Banks won the titles back on SmackDown on Friday. The Role Model and The Boss will make a trip over to the Red Brand tonight - what do they have in mind, and will the IIconics have something to say about it?
After many sporting events, the Street Profits and the Viking Raiders find themselves in a Decathlon this week. Surely this has to be the last week of these contests - will the two teams finally come to blows over the RAW Tag Team Titles?
All this, plus the latest on Rey Mysterio and if he's retiring or not, tonight from 8/7c on USA in the States, Sportsnet 360 in Canada, BT Sport in the UK and Ireland, and FOX 8 in Australia!

Has that Asuka v Flair match actually been confirmed to be for the belt? I've seen different official WWE accounts saying both yes and no.

Has that Asuka v Flair match actually been confirmed to be for the belt? I've seen different official WWE accounts saying both yes and no. The WWE UK twitter account deleted the tweet saying it was for the title, and the WWE.com article on it has no mention of it being for the title. So either the UK twitter account spoiled something they shouldn't have, or they made a mistake.

I've updated the OP to remove mention of it being a title match, think the UK account either got the wrong end of the stick, or they've spoiled the announcement.

Silly tag teams having a decathlon cause why actually have a wrestling match. That might be too much.

I'm to the point I wish Charlotte would win a title/lose a title every 2 weeks so we can be done with this "OMG SURPASSING HER DAD" charade as soon as possible.
She's had like 12 reigns and I remember maybe 4 of them.

I'm genuinely interested to see what the Iiconics are up to, they've been brilliant since they returned.

if Dijakovic's twitter account becomes nothing but pictures of the messiah, I may need to follow him.

How can this be the greatest go home show? I don't see Shane McMahon advertised anywhere.

Please don't split the IIconics. They just announced IIconics vs Bayley/Sasha vs Alexa/Nikki in a triple threat for Backlash. So it doesn't looking they'll be splitting at least for now anyways.

That stems from Vince McMahon once being heard saying something about thinking Christian had an ugly face and that he'd love to put something like a blue dot over Christian's face whenever he's on screen.

Last night, Charlotte Flair lost #12. Charlotte Flair loses titles like I lose friends.
