4 Biggest things WWE could be planning on RAW this week (19 August 2019)

#3 Samoa Joe, Drew McIntyre, Cedric Alexander and Baron Corbin win their respective first-round matches of King of the Ring tournament

The tournament will commence on RAW

The stage is set for the King of the Ring tournament this week. While eight Superstars will compete from the red brand, the other eight Superstars will compete from the blue brand. The last two finalists will fight at Clash of Champions, where the ultimate King of the Ring winner will be crowned.

The first round is scheduled to take place on RAW this week. Cesaro will fight Samoa Joe and Drew McIntyre will take on Ricochet. Furthermore, Sami Zayn will face Cedric Alexander and The Miz will lock horns with Baron Corbin. There is no doubt that the match card is stupendous, and it should be a good tournament.

Considering Drew McIntyre is a tournament favourite, he is expected to beat Ricochet. Samoa Joe and Cesaro should be a close fight. Sami Zayn has been losing matches every week. Therefore, he has a tiny chance to overcome Cedric Alexander. Meanwhile, Baron Corbin will make his first appearance after Extreme Rules. It will not be surprising if Dolph Ziggler costs The Miz his first-round match.
