This week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown is in the rearview mirror, and now the WWE Universe will turn its attention to Monday, where Monday Night RAW promises to feature some noteworthy matches.
First, in a buzzworthy Fatal 4-Way match, Alexa Bliss, Asuka, Nikki A.S.H. (also known as Nikki Cross) and Naomi will collide in a bout where all four women will hope to earn some momentum heading into WWE Money in the Bank. These competitors make up the red brand’s half of the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
Monday on #WWERaw!

Elsewhere in the show, WWE Champion Bobby Lashley will look to get some revenge against Xavier Woods in a singles match after Lashley and MVP lost a tough tag team bout against the New Day last week. Woods has been trash-talking Lashley and The Hurt Business for the better part of a month now, so Lashley is going to be looking to grab a statement win on Monday. Lashley had been scheduled to face Woods last week before the bout was turned into a tag team contest. “The All Mighty” defeated Woods in a Hell in a Cell Match on the June 21st episode. Lashley will defend his title against Woods’ tag team parter Kofi Kingston later next week at the WWE Money in the Bank pay-per-view.
Plus, WWE has teased some movement in the developing feud between Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal after the latter stole the sword the “The Scottish Warrior” carries to the ring last week.
The updated card is as follows:
- Asuka vs. Naomi vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Nikki A.S.H.
- Bobby Lashley vs. Xavier Woods
