The July 4th edition of Raw is expected to tank in the ratings, so WWE is pulling out all of the stops for the show. The company's website has already announced several matches and angles for the broadcast, with a "USA Vs. The World" elimination tag team match chief amongst them.

No participants have been announced for the bout, which will pit eight American superstars against eight International superstars, and will only end when one entire team has been eliminated.

It seems to have been inspired by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre, who promoted a "Mexico Vs. The World" eight-on-eight elimination match at last Friday's show.

Also announced for Raw is a "Champion versus Champion" non-title match pitting WWE Champion Dean Ambrose against Intercontinental Champion The Miz. The two collided in singles action on last week's Smackdown, with Ambrose picking up the victory.

Following a count-out victory over United States Champion Rusev on last week's Raw, Titus O'Neal will once again take on "The Bulgarian Brute" with the belt on the line. Rusev beat O'Neal at Money in the Bank, but Raw could easily play host to a title change.
