Two matches, Seth Rollins & Mustafa Ali segments set for WWE Raw
A few announcements have been made for Monday’s WWE Draft night two edition of Raw:
– Seth Rollins will bid farewell to Raw.
Rollins was drafted to SmackDown on Friday, making this the first time he hasn’t been on Raw since being drafted by the brand in 2016. Murphy and Rey & Dominik Mysterio were also drafted to SmackDown and will continue their storyline with Rollins on Friday nights.
– Mustafa Ali will speak for the first time since being revealed as the leader of RETRIBUTION.
Ali was revealed as RETRIBUTION’s leader following a match against MVP last week. When Ali was cornered by MVP, Bobby Lashley, and Shelton Benjamin during the match, the lights started to flicker and RETRIBUTION surrounded the ring. Ali acted like he was going to fight alongside The Hurt Business but instead ordered RETRIBUTION to attack them. The segment ended with Ali posing as RETRIBUTION stood behind him.
The Hurt Business stayed on Raw in night one of the draft. RETRIBUTION are eligible to be drafted by Raw or SmackDown on Monday night.
– A dual-brand battle royal will determine Asuka’s next challenger.
Asuka stayed on Raw in night one of the draft. WWE hasn’t announced when the winner of the battle royal will challenge for Asuka’s title. The next pay-per-view is Hell in a Cell on Sunday, October 25.
– Kevin Owens and Aleister Black will face off in a no disqualification match.
In a post-Raw video last week, Black said he wants to do barbaric things to Owens and challenged Owens to face him one more time. Black ambushed Owens after a KO Show segment last week and laid him out with Black Mass.
Owens lost to “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt in the main event of Friday’s SmackDown.
Owens and Black are both eligible to be drafted by Raw or SmackDown on Monday. Updated rosters for both brands and the list of wrestlers in the night two draft pool can be found here.
