Lashley vs. Rollins US title match set for next week’s WWE Raw
A United States Championship match has been announced for the Monday, September 19 WWE Raw.
Bobby Lashley will defend the United States title against Seth Rollins on next week’s show. The match was set up during this week’s Raw in a backstage segment. Rollins called himself the face of Raw, while Lashley said that “he who has the gold” is the face of the brand, and Rollins does not have gold.
In another bout set for next week, Kevin Owens will take on Austin Theory. Their bout was set up on this week’s Raw episode. Theory attacked Johnny Gargano after Gargano’s in-ring return to the company in a win over Chad Gable.
After, Theory was cutting a promo when Owens interrupted. Owens said that Theory doesn’t have what it takes to be the future of the business. The encounter turned physical after Owens attempted to hit a Stunner, but Theory escaped before Owens could hit his finisher.
