Two matches announced for WWE Raw
WWE has added two matches with Clash of Champions implications to Monday’s go-home episode of Raw.
In a rematch from this week’s Raw, WWE Champion Drew McIntyre will face Keith Lee in a non-title match on Monday’s go-home show. The match again has a stipulation where if Lee defeats McIntyre and Randy Orton isn’t able to wrestle at the pay-per-view, Lee will take Orton’s place and challenge for McIntyre’s title in an ambulance match at Clash of Champions.
On the September 7 episode of Raw, there was an angle where Orton was taken out by ambulance after being given three Claymores by McIntyre throughout the show. McIntyre was getting revenge for Orton previously laying him out with three RKOs. The ambulance match stipulation for their Clash of Champions title match was announced this week.
McIntyre vs. Lee on this week’s Raw ended in a no contest when it was interrupted by RETRIBUTION. The Hurt Business then came out and brawled with RETRIBUTION. McIntyre and Lee hit flip dives onto the pile outside of the ring to close the show.
WWE has also announced that Seth Rollins & Murphy, Dominik Mysterio & Humberto Carrillo, and Andrade & Angel Garza will face off in a number one contender’s triple threat tag match on Monday’s Raw. The winning team will challenge The Street Profits for the Raw Tag Team titles at Clash of Champions.
Monday’s Raw will also feature Braun Strowman and Dabba-Kato facing off in Raw Underground.
