This week's Raw takes place from Kansas City and it follows an interesting Battleground PPV that ended when The Undertaker returned to attack Brock Lesnar. It's expected that The Undertaker will be on Raw for the first time this year, while Lesnar should be there along with his advocate Paul Heyman. Since Raw always starts with a promo, it wouldn't be a surprise if Heyman went on a rant about how The Undertaker screwed Lesnar out of winning the WWE Title. There are also rumours that Sting is coming back for SummerSlam, which means that he will likely show up on Raw tonight. There are five weeks between Battleground and SummerSlam on August 23, so there's time to save his return. He's expected to team with Roman Reigns and possibly Dean Ambrose against Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and another partner. Every week on WWE.com they post five questions to preview Raw and like usual there are no matches announced. Here's what they have this week:
Will The Deadman rise on Raw? Two Faces of Fear - Wyatt and Harper? How will the Divas revolution continue? Has Orton seen the last of Sheamus? What's next for John Cena?
The Orton part sounds like his feud with Sheamus may lead into a match at SummerSlam, but they really don't need to keep it going. Orton won clean at Battleground, so that should be it. It's not like fans are clamoring for more of their matches! By the end of Raw, it's likely that one or two of the major matches for SummerSlam will be made official, so it should be a very newsworthy episode tonight.
