WWE Extreme Rules 2019: 2 Huge Tag Matches Confirmed
Corbin & Evans challenge Lynch & Rollins in 'Winners Take All' clash.
WWE's next main roster pay-per-view, Extreme Rules, is already less than three weeks away (14 July), and last night's Raw saw the promotion put the first two matches together.
Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins vs. Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans was speculated after Stomping Grounds and made a reality in Raw's opening segment. The babyfaces accepted the mixed tag challenge so long as it meant the end of their respective feuds with the villains, who demanded Lynch and Rollins put their Raw Women's and Universal Championships on the line, making it 'Winners Take All.'
Elsewhere, a bizarre, unexplained turn of events saw The Undertaker return out of nowhere to save Roman Reigns from a 2-on-1 Shane McMahon/Drew McIntyre beatdown. Having defeated McIntyre at Stomping Grounds, 'The Big Dog' was wrestling the heels in a handicap bout and was utterly dominated, leading to the lights cutting, 'Taker destroying the neer-do-wells, and the tag bout being confirmed later in the show. Very, very random, but a pretty cool angle nonetheless.
No further matches were booked, but it looks like we're heading towards WWE Champion Kofi Kingston vs. Samoa Joe as well, with the 'Destroyer' ambushing the New Day man last night.
