WWE has released a preview for Monday's Raw, which will be taped at London's O2 Arena and air on a delay. The preview centers on the semifinal matches of The New Day's WWE Tag Team Championship number one contenders' tournament, both of which will take place on this week's broadcast.

After defeating The Lucha Dragons on Raw last week, The Dudley Boyz have advanced to the second round of the tournament. Their opponents will be new rivals Enzo Amore and Colin Cassidy, who defeated The Ascension on Smackdown to earn their way forward. Both teams have engaged in verbal battles over the past couple of weeks, and now things will get physical.

In the other semifinal match, The Usos - who defeated the Social Outcasts on last Monday's Raw - will take on The Vaudevillains, Simon Gotch and Aiden English. The Vaudevillains, who came up to the main roster just after WrestleMania, defeated Goldust and Fandango on last week's Smackdown. The former NXT Tag Team Champions will be making their Raw debut with this match.

WWE's preview also teases an appearance from former IWGP Tag Team Champions Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows - who debuted on Raw last week with an unprovoked attack on The Usos - by posing the question "will the dominant tandem make their presence known once again this week?"
