Two segments announced for WWE Raw

Posted on by Joseph Currier

Two segments have been announced for Monday’s episode of Raw.

WWE Champion Bobby Lashley and MVP are set to appear on Monday’s show. They’ll be addressing Lashley’s WWE Championship defense against Goldberg at SummerSlam.

WWE has also announced that Charlotte Flair will “speak to the WWE Universe” on Monday’s Raw. Charlotte will respond to her loss against Raw Women’s Champion Nikki A.S.H. from this past Monday. Charlotte lost to Nikki A.S.H. in a non-title no holds barred match on that show.

Lashley vs. Goldberg became official for SummerSlam following a confrontation between them on this week’s Raw. After Goldberg had gone to the back, Lashley and MVP taunted Goldberg’s son Gage at ringside. Goldberg then came back out and gave MVP a spear. Later in the show, Lashley accepted Goldberg’s challenge for SummerSlam. Lashley told Goldberg to bring Gage to SummerSlam so that he can see Lashley annihilate his father.

SummerSlam is taking place on Saturday, August 21. Nikki A.S.H. will defend her Raw Women’s Championship against Charlotte and Rhea Ripley in a triple threat match at the pay-per-view.

The Amway Center in Orlando, Florida is hosting Monday’s Raw. It’s the second-to-last episode of the show before SummerSlam.

Alexa’s Playground with Natalya & Tamina set for WWE Raw

Posted on by Joseph Currier

An Alexa’s Playground segment is set for tonight’s post-WrestleMania Backlash edition of Raw.

On SmackDown this past Friday, Natalya & Tamina defeated Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler to become the new WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions. Alexa Bliss will welcome Natalya & Tamina for an Alexa’s Playground segment on Raw tonight.

This is the first major title that Tamina has held in WWE. Her only other title reign was with the 24/7 Championship.

Bliss said on Raw two weeks ago that her doll Lilly told her that “a certain someone” had caught her eye. Bliss and Lilly then came out to the stage and watched on from Alexa’s Playground as Asuka, Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke faced Charlotte Flair, Jax & Baszler in a six-woman tag match on Raw last week. Bliss said she and Lilly were keeping their eyes on “someone.”

The finish of last week’s six-woman tag match saw Asuka pin Baszler after Bliss was apparently able to make Baszler’s leg cramp up and give out.

Natalya & Tamina are members of the SmackDown roster but can now appear on both brands while they’re the WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions.
