WWE: RAW Preview for 19th August
The eyes of the world and professional wrestling industry now focus on the Honda Center in Anaheim, California as this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW brings us the fall-out of SummerSlam PPV.
Last night, championships changed hands, heroes fell and victors stood tall, as SummerSlam turned out to be the best PPV of this year so far.
Going into this week’s RAW, the fans won’t discuss if Bryan can beat Cena anymore, as Daniel Bryan proved to the world that he is indeed a worthy opponent. This past Sunday, Bryan defeated John Cena to win the WWE championship, while Brock Lesnar beat the Second City Saint CM Punk in the “Best vs Beast” match. So what can we expect from this week’s RAW? Let’s take look.
Is this the end for Christian?
Going into the SummerSlam PPV, it was built as Christian’s final chance to win the World Heavyweight championship. Although Christian can work a match better than 90% of the guys in the locker room, he’s on the wrong side of the age barrier, and going by how the management looked at him till now, there is very little hope of him getting another run as the World Heavyweight champion.
Christian faced Del Rio this past Sunday at SummerSlam and put on an amazing match with the Mexican warrior. With Del Rio retaining the championship, where will Christian go from here? Will he get another opportunity to win the World championship at the next PPV? We will get our answers tonight, as the future of Christian will be decided on RAW.
Natalya finally gets her recognition
After years of toiling in the depleting women’s division, Natalya finally has picked up her pace, by first defeating the Divas champion last week, and at SummerSlam, defeating Brie Bella. Natalya was also involved in the SummerSlam Axxess match, teaming up with Maria and picked up the victory against Brie and Eva Marie.
Will Natalya be named as the new number one contender for the Divas title? We’ll have to wait and find out tonight.
