WWE and RAW are building towards its next PPV, TLC, and the festive season is going to be action packed with interesting feuds and rivalries all around.
On last week's RAW, Braun Strowman was assaulted by Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley, and The Monster Among Men was legitimately injured on the show which will see him sit out for a while.
Stephanie McMahon announced a match between Strowman and Corbin for TLC, where a victory for Strowman will see him face Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble, while a defeat for Corbin will see him removed as the RAW Acting GM.
We also saw Dean Ambrose taunt Seth Rollins throughout the night, and then assaulted him in the ring, while Nia Jax sent Ronda Rousey a message for when they face each other at TLC, next month.
What can we expect from the 26th November episode of RAW? Let us find out...
Seth Rollins to "refocus"
Last week on RAW, Ambrose sent Rollins on a wild-goose chase, taunting the Intercontinental champion to come and find him. At the end of the show, Rollins did find and confront his former Shield brother, but Ambrose struck him with a low blow.
On this week's show, Rollins has issued an Open Challenge for his Intercontinental Championship belt on RAW, the same belt that he will put on the line at TLC against Dean Ambrose.
Ambrose and Rollins faced off at Starrcade on Saturday in a Steel Cage match for the Intercontinental Champion, which the champ won as he climbed out of the cage.
Rollins seems to be ready for Ambrose, and wants to "test" himself by issuing an Open Challenge on RAW. The Architect has held the belt since winning it from Dolph Ziggler at SummerSlam earlier this year. Who will Rollins face in the Open Challenge on RAW this week? Will Ambrose interfere and cost Rollins the match and his belt?
Corbin's new opponent for TLC?
On last week's RAW, Braun Strowman faced off in a 6-man tag team elimination match, as he along with Finn Balor and Elias, took on the team of Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley, and Drew McIntyre.
Strowman was the last man from his team against the three giants of the other team, and he was assaulted and legitimately injured as he shattered his right elbow.
The Monster Among Men was granted his match against Corbin at TLC by Stephanie McMahon, where a win for Strowman would see him face off against Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble.
With Strowman out, Corbin will face off against The Monster Among Men's tag team partner from last week, Finn Balor. Could Balor be Corbin's opponent at TLC if Strowman doesn't return from injury? Could we see Lashley and McIntyre attack Balor to send a message to Strowman?
Ronda Rousey and Nia Jax square off
After being brutalised by Charlotte Flair at Survivor Series, Ronda Rousey was forced to face Mickie James in a singles match on RAW the very next night, by acting GM Baron Corbin.
Rousey got the win, and while she was returning backstage was confronted by Nia Jax and Tamina. Jax will get her shot at Rousey's RAW Women's Championship belt after winning the battle royal at Evolution.
Jax, who busted open Becky Lynch prior to Survivor Series on RAW, motioned to her fist and smiled devilishly and then made her way backstage. Nia Jax may have pushed the wrong buttons of the RAW Champion and there could be some hell to pay on RAW this week.
AOP to defend their titles for the first time
Authors of Pain surprisingly won the RAW Tag Team titles when they defeated Seth Rollins earlier this month. AOP then went on to face the SmackDown tag team champions, The Bar, at Survivor Series, where they won as well.
But last week on RAW, the RAW Tag Team champions lost to Chad Gable and Bobby Roode, who will now have a chance at the tag team belts on RAW. Roode and Gable haven't tasted much success since moving to RAW earlier this year, but could they finally win gold on RAW?
Elias to seek retribution against Bobby Lashley
Bobby Lashley and Elias have had a slow-burning feud, with Lashley winning a spot on RAW's Survivor Series team when he beat the guitar-wielding Superstar two weeks ago on RAW.
On last week's show, Lashley was eliminated in the 6-man tag team match on RAW, which featured Bobby Lashley on the opposite side, where Lashley delivered a deadly spear on Elias. This feud is shaping up to be a good one, with Lashley's hype man, Lio Rush, getting under the skin of Elias on more than one occasion.
This week's RAW show from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, could be the place where Elias gets his payback as Elias will face off against Lashley in a one-on-one match. In singles competition on RAW, Lashley has defeated Elias twice, while Elias has won just one match against Lashley in one-on-one matchups.
Could Elias change things around and get momentum going into TLC with a win against Lashley?
