Another Reigns & Lashley vs. The Revival match set for WWE Raw
Roman Reigns & Bobby Lashley are set to face The Revival for the third straight week.
Making it the first match confirmed for tonight’s Raw, WWE announced the rematch via a promo from The Revival this afternoon. Despite defeating Reigns & Lashley last week, the storyline for the match is that The Revival asked for it so they can send a message and prove that their win wasn’t a fluke.
Dash Wilder pinned Reigns with a roll-up last Monday after tension between Reigns and Lashley led to the finish. The week before that, Lashley tagged himself in and beat Wilder with a spear.
Before it was canceled, Reigns and Lashley were the only two wrestlers confirmed for the Universal Championship multi-man number one contender’s match at Extreme Rules. WWE has instead teased that Reigns will face Lashley at the pay-per-view.
Reigns also made the save for Seth Rollins last week after Drew McIntyre’s interference caused Dolph Ziggler and Rollins’ Intercontinental Championship match to end in a disqualification.
The only other thing that’s been announced for tonight is an angle where Sasha Banks and Bayley will have to attend “mandatory counseling.” Bayley snapped and attacked Banks following a six-woman tag on last Monday’s episode.
