Raw preview: Rollins and Rowan clash in Falls Count Anywhere Match

With a Universal Championship Falls Count Anywhere Match against “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt at WWE Crown Jewel looming in the distance, Seth Rollins will get to try his hand at the ruthless stipulation opposite one of Raw’s newest monsters.

As revealed on FS1’s WWE Backstage show, the Universal Champion will go one-on-one with Raw draftee Erick Rowan in a Falls Count Anywhere Match this Monday, potentially giving The Beastslayer a chance to work out the kinks as he barrels toward his horrifying foe at WWE Crown Jewel.

The match also carries a certain kind of poetic significance. In what feels like another lifetime, Rowan was a disciple of Wyatt’s. And although the former SmackDown Tag Team Champion has since broken away from any and all subjugation to become his own kind of nightmare, Rollins might gain the mental edge that he sorely needs if he can defeat Rowan prior to squaring off against the Superstar who has pushed him to the brink of his sanity. Tune in to Raw this Monday, live at 8/7 C on USA Network, to see who prevails.

Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair to appear days before WWE Crown Jewel

If tensions weren’t already at a boiling point between Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and their respective teams heading into their massive 5-on-5 Tag Team showdown at WWE Crown Jewel, they certainly are now.

A war of words between the two WWE Hall of Famers and team representatives devolved into fisticuffs Friday on SmackDown, setting up a Six-Man Tag Team Match won by Team Hogan competitors Roman Reigns, Ali & Shorty G.

With only three days before the score is settled at Crown Jewel, what’s in store when both The Hulkster and The Nature Boy are on hand for Raw on USA Network at 8/7 C?

Oh yeah it’s Monday lol

 

[Sabretooth]

Well obviously no ones here but I'll throw this in.

First match between Becky and Kairi was really good.

 

[Vegeta]

HEELTooth is Raw!!

I agree good match indeed opened the show.

 

[Vegeta]

Had to get me a red cup for the entrance!

 

[Hoss]

Always good to get promos from R-Truth and Street Profits, even though the Street Profits' one was completely pointless. Mostly uneventful Raw thus far I gotta say.

 

[Hoss]

Fucking hell Ricochet damn near broke his neck selling that RKO. Gotta be RKO of the year right?

 

[Vegeta]

I’ll say it again, Orton really becoming one of my favorites again over the last few months. Dude has been on it again lately.

 

[Vegeta]

What the fuck?

 

[Hoss]

I think Orton's been great, going all the way back to his feud with Jeff Hardy a year ago at least.

I thought we were done with the Viking Raiders squash matches. Fuck outta here with this shit.

 

[Vegeta]

I honestly wish the Cubs would’ve faced some jobber team so they could win and we get a “CUBS WIN CUBS WIN CUBS WIN.”

 

[Hoss]

Well this is unexpected.

"I've been married so many times I've got rice marks on my face"

The King's still got it lol

They seem to be suggesting on commentary that Zelina and Andrade are a couple but haven't they always just been business associates? Are they switching that up or are these commentators just oblivious?

Probably the second one hah.

 

[Hoss]

I fucking love The IIconics.
