New WWE Universal Champion to be decided in Fatal 4-Way Match

Source: WWE.com

One week after Finn Bálor was forced to relinquish the WWE Universal Championship due to a shoulder injury at the hands of Seth Rollins at SummerSlam, The Architect will clash with Roman Reigns, Big Cass and Kevin Owens in a Fatal 4-Way Match for the vacant title on Raw. Who will leave Raw with Team Red’s flagship title?

In the biggest Raw main event of the New Era, Roman Reigns, Big Cass, Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens will battle it out for the WWE Universal Championship, which was vacated by the injured Finn Bálor this past Monday night. Although analysts might give an edge to Reigns or Rollins, both of whom have held the WWE World Championship in the past, you can’t discount Big Cass, who has more than proven he can hang in Team Red’s main event scene in recent weeks. As for Owens, we have to imagine that his pal Chris Jericho will “have his back” during this bout. After all, Jericho is “The Best in the World at What He Does,” and that includes bending the rules.

Regardless, there will be a new WWE Universal Champion Monday night, and you won’t want to miss any of the action in this explosive four-man melee.

After failing to diagnose any new cases of “ringpostitis” last week, “Doctors” Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson accepted new patients last week in The Dudley Boyz, spoiling the iconic tag team’s farewell address to the WWE Universe with a disrespectful attack that culminated in D-Von Dudley being driven through a table.

As much as it might have been an opportunity to spoil a feel-good moment — Gallows & Anderson are known to do that — it was also a poignant statement to the entire Team Red locker room that no one is safe. Will another tandem suffer the same fate as The Dudley Boyz this Monday night?


Wacky, waving, inflatable, arm-flailing tube men in tow, Bayley made her official debut on Raw and, after sharing a hug with Raw General Manager Mick Foley, she earned a decisive victory over Dana Brooke as new WWE Women’s Champion Charlotte looked on.

Even though they share a bond as two members of “The Four Horsewomen,” Charlotte has made it abundantly clear that any past affiliations are null and void when it comes to Team Red and championship gold. Is a title match in the cards for these friends-turned-rivals?

From James Ellsworth to Johnny Knockout, local competitors have been lining up to face Braun Strowman in recent weeks, and the conclusion of each bout appears to be more painful than the last. As Strowman looks to continue his impressive winning streak, another journeyman grappler will likely stand across the ring from the juggernaut this Monday night. Will this hopeful grappler find success where others have failed, or will he be mangled like the rest?

Don’t miss Raw at 8/7 C on USA Network, and be sure to tune in to Raw Pre-Show at 7:30 ET on all of WWE’s digital platforms!

uhhh I don't see WWE taking a chance on KO just yet. No way Cass wins, he's in this match to foreshadow a future main event run. Reigns will undoubtedly continue feuding with Rusev then later down the line have his 4th world championship reign begin at a PPV. Safe bet is on Rollins becoming the Universal Champion.

I'm only gonna watch to see if Owens wins. If he doesn't I'm gonna stick with SDL as the only WWE product I watch every week, because honestly the rest of this 3 hour show is no where good enough to suffer through to me.

Say what you will and it is a real shame there was no heat: but haters of that can take their flying and huge move-a-rama without context we sometimes see: that was a damn fine old school match inofitself. Again, a real shame there is no true heat.

KO needs to win this one. Reigns winning would be going backwards, and would prove that WWE have learned nothing. Rollins has been there and done that, we need something fresh, and Cass is a total no go.

I'd kill to see Bayley in a thong, her ass has been covered up her entire time in WWE, even in photoshoots for summertime beach photos they got her in lounging pants or something completely covering her ass. Shes got one of the nicest asses in the division but can't ever show it off cause they made her character so damn PG and kid friendly.

Well, that ending was fairly entertaining..

And see Rollins, that's what happens when you hug all over another man's wife all the time.

tisk tisk tisk.
