Intercontinental Title No. 1 Contenders Tournament Begins​

20240819_RAW_ICTitleTournament_FC_Monday--0268a079119a928bc21fdb5e78808540.jpg


The tournament to determine the No. 1 Contender to the Intercontinental Championship will begin on the Aug. 26 episode of Monday Night Raw.

Bron Breakker has proven to be a dominant champion, most recently defeating Sami Zayn in a 2-out-of-3 Falls Match on Raw to retain his title.

Stay tuned to WWE social media channels to see which matches and which Superstars will be competing in this tournament.

“Big” Bronson Reed takes on Braun Strowman​

n a battle of gargantuan competitors, “Big” Bronson Reed will take on the mountainous Braun Strowman for the first time ever.

Reed has been hitting Tsunami after Tsunami on his foes, injuring Seth “Freakin” Rollins and R-Truth by repeatedly landing the devastating move.

Last Monday, Reed defeated The Miz in a No Disqualification Match and looked to add another victim to his Tsunami barrage until The Monster of All Monsters made the save.

Who will come out on top when Strowman and Reed attempt to destroy one another?

Chad Gable seeks to destroy Uncle Howdy​

Chad Gable seemingly isn’t done with The Wyatt Sicks.

With Ivy Nile and The Creed Brothers by his side as American Made, Gable is attempting to lead his new faction in a take down of Alpha Academy, but they ran into a big problem this past Monday.

As Nile battled her former friend Maxxine Dupri, The Wyatt Sicks interrupted the match, spooking Nile and the rest of American Made.

Next Monday, Gable will look to put The Wyatt Sicks behind him as he takes on Uncle Howdy in Howdy’s in-ring debut as a competitor on Raw.

Will Uncle Howdy claim the win against the brash Gable?​

Don't miss the fallout from The Judgment Day’s destructive attack on The Terror Twins​

20240823_RAW_JudgeDay_FC_Monday--6a43d1ad8d82cab15f5a25d6ab234646.jpg

Last week, The Judgment Day completely dismantled former allies Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley in a destructive ambush.

Following the heinous attack, what is the condition of Priest and Ripley? Has the dark faction proven its superiority over The Terror Twins? How will it affect the Mixed Tag Team Match pitting Women's Women Champion Liv Morgan and "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio against Ripley and Priest at WWE Bash in Berlin?

Randy Orton will be live on Raw​

20240816_RAW_RKO_FC_Monday--99469d8e9b9582860c3417743405a3f8.jpg

Days before challenge World Heavyweight Champion Gunther at WWE Bash in Berlin, Randy Orton will be live on Monday Night Raw. The road to The Viper's highly anticipated rematch against The Ring General has been extremely volatile, including their slugfest last week as Raw concluded.

Are they destined to throw down once more before their epic title showdown in Berlin? Brace yourself for an appearance by WWE's Apex Predator​

Finally get to see two Massive men go at in Braun and Bronson. This should be a fun match . If Braun power slams bronson damn the ring might collapse. I remember it happening with big show one time. It was surreal to see.
