What’s the story?
Some matches have been confirmed for the upcoming RAW PPV Great Balls Of Fire. We list out some of the other expected matches to take place, as per Cageside Seats.
In case you didn’t know...
Samoa Joe won a #1 contenders match at Extreme Rules to become the next challenger for the Universal Championship at Great Balls Of Fire. Joe has had a very impressive feud with Brock Lesnar so far, choking him out on the latest edition of RAW.
So far, the Great Balls Of Fire match card looks as follows:
Brock Lesnar (c) vs Samoa Joe – WWE Universal Championship
Neville (c) vs Akira Tozawa – WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Alexa Bliss (c) vs Sasha Banks – WWE RAW Women's Championship
Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman – Ambulance Match
Seth Rollins vs Bray Wyatt
The heart of the matter
According to Cageside seats, some of the additional matches that can be expected for the PPV are:
Cesaro & Sheamus vs The Hardy Boyz – WWE RAW Tag Team Championship
The Miz vs Dean Ambrose – WWE Intercontinental Championship
Goldust vs R-Truth
Additionally, some of the other matches that seem to be happening are:
Enzo Amore vs Big Cass
Finn Balor vs Elias Samson
These matches will probably be confirmed tomorrow night on RAW.
What’s next?
There is one more episode of RAW remaining until WWE Great Balls Of Fire, so expect a few more matches to be announced tomorrow. Unfortunately, Brock Lesnar won’t be there for the go-home show, so it’s up to Samoa Joe to carry the final week of the feud on his own.
Author’s take
Despite the fact that the PPV name is one of the worst in WWE history, it’s actually turning out to be one of the best PPV cards of the entire year. There are plenty of interesting matches which should make the PPV an exciting one. GBOF looks like one PPV nearly guaranteed to deliver if booked right.
