Braun Strowman to face AJ Styles for the United States Title on Raw
The O.C. have been making a lot of noise on Raw since capturing the United States Championship and the Raw Tag Team Titles, but it seems like all that noise has woken up a monster.
As AJ Styles, Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson pummeled Universal Champion Seth Rollins during Raw’s Champion vs. Champion main event, Braun Strowman joined frequent O.C. foe Ricochet in helping The Beastslayer even the odds, sending a powerful message to The Phenomenal One and his cruel cohorts.
In a WWE.com interview following the physical altercation with The Monster Among Men, Styles challenged Strowman to a match next week, where the United States Title will be on the line. Strowman accepted the challenge via Twitter.
Will Strowman soon wear WWE’s star-spangled title around his waist, or are The O.C. looking to set a trap for the battle-ready behemoth? Don’t miss Raw tonight, live at 8/7 C on USA Network.
Will Sasha Banks explain her actions on “The King’s Court”?
As first reported by Sports Illustrated, Sasha Banks will appear on “The King’s Court” with Jerry “The King” Lawler this coming Monday night on Raw.
Banks garnered all the headlines this past week on Raw when she re-emerged and devastatingly took out both Natalya and Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch. The Boss’ next meeting will be a bit of a different setting though, as she arrives this Monday to be questioned by WWE Hall of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawler on his iconic talk show, “The King’s Court.”
Will Sasha explain her shocking actions and swift change in demeanor? Find out when The Boss steps to the throne this Monday night.
Cedric Alexander squares off with Sami Zayn as the King of the Ring kicks off
Cedric Alexander’s momentum has been surging over recent weeks with a win over Drew McIntyre and legions of new fans inspired by his never-say-die attitude and breathtaking propensity for making a statement. Sami Zayn will be looking to disappoint Alexander’s fans as the King of the Ring Tournament begins.
Zayn would undoubtedly take pleasure in eliminating fan-favorite Alexander from the tournament early. Can The Critic of Critics play spoiler or will Cedric ascend and take his first step towards the King of the Ring throne?
Find out tonight on Raw!
Cesaro and Samoa Joe to throw down with their eyes on the throne
The King of the Ring Tournament is about to see a fight go down.
In a match that could be the most physical of the first round, Cesaro and Samoa Joe will collide, both looking to advance in their quest to become the 2019 King of the Ring. Will it be The Samoan Shark or The Swiss Cyborg who emerges from a battle that is sure to turn heads tonight?
Elias to give “Farewell Musical Performance” as 24/7 Title reign continues
Mere moments after R-Truth celebrated his astonishing 12th 24/7 Championship win, Elias bashed The Rapping Superstar with his guitar to kick off his third reign with the oft-defended prize. Elias has already turned back a challenge from Drake Maverick in the recording studio, but neither Drake nor the growing number of Superstars in pursuit of the 24/7 Title will be giving up anytime soon, so, as revealed on WWE’s Instagram story, the singing Superstar will be giving his final in-ring musical performance in order to keep his location secret and his reign secure. It’s a smart strategy from a canny Superstar, though Elias’ desire for one last turn in the spotlight could lead to his most disastrous interruption yet.
