Brock Lesnar appearance, United States title match set for WWE Raw


A Brock Lesnar appearance and a United States title match have been announced for next week’s Raw.
During Friday’s SmackDown, it was announced that Lesnar would be appearing on Monday’s Raw, which will be held in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. A United States championship match was also announced, with Seth Rollins defending against Matt Riddle.
Lesnar appeared on WWE television for the first time since SummerSlam on this Monday’s Raw, attacking Bobby Lashley with two F5’s and a kimura. Despite being attacked, Lashley insisted on defending the United States title, ultimately losing to Rollins. Lashley made it clear later in a backstage interview that he wanted Lesnar and challenged him to return next Monday.
Riddle and Rollins have been feuding throughout the fall, with Rollins defending Riddle at Clash at the Castle last month. However, Riddle defeated Rollins at Extreme Rules in a Fight Pit match, with Daniel Cormier serving as the special guest referee.
Here is the lineup so far for Monday’s Raw:
- United States Championship: Seth Rollins defends against Matt Riddle
- The Miz vs. Dexter Lumis – if Lumis wins, he earns a WWE contract
- Brock Lesnar will appear
- Elias will return
