WWE Raw is live tonight from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, GA! Tonight promises to be a pretty big show with a lot already announced, including the arrival of “The Beast” Brock Lesnar to answer the SummerSlam challenge laid down by Cody Rhodes. Let’s take a look at everything announced for tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw:
Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn vs. The Judgment Day
WWE’s official preview:
As The Judgment Day recently got back on the same page, they have continued to provoke the rest of the locker room, running into Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn on more than one occasion.
On Raw, the two sides will meet again with The Judgment Day’s Dominik Mysterio and Señor Money in the Bank Damian Priest battling Owens and Zayn.
Just last week The Judgment Day dispatched of Owens, Zayn and Cody Rhodes in Six-Man Tag Team Action. The Judgment Day consiting of Priest and Finn Bálor also hold a tag team victory over the champions.
