10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (June 27)

As Kevin Owens and Natalya celebrated without a hint of remorse in the middle of the ring, Sami Zayn and Becky Lynch regroup on the Raw entrance ramp. Interrupting the party going on, Becky says that Natalya should enjoy her little celebration for now, because the smile will be wiped from her face come Battleground.

After that challenge had been thrown out there, it'd be time for Zayn to up the stakes between he and Owens. Topping Becky's words, he'd claim that a regular match isn't quite enough for both men, because they've come so far and need to finish things.

Therefore, he wants a Last Man Standing Match with KO at Battleground. Another option could be a Street Fight, but Last Man Standing would add some weight to the idea of finality.

Nothing would be set in stone on Monday Night Raw, WWE could let the idea breathe until SmackDown, or even the next Raw episode. There, Shane and Stephanie McMahon argue over both matches, before agreeing that they must happen.
