Goldberg/Bobby Lashley Confrontation, Two Matches Announced For WWE Raw
The go-home Raw before SummerSlam
Two matches have been announced this coming Monday's episode of WWE Raw in San Antonio, as well as a confrontation between WWE champion and challenger.
WWE titleholder Bobby Lashley and Goldberg will have a verbal confrontation on this Monday's show, setting the stage for their title bout five nights later at SummerSlam.
In addition, Randy Orton will go one on one with one half of the Raw Tag Team champions, Omos.
Orton made his return to WWE on Monday after a six week absence. In the preceding weeks, Orton's partner Riddle had run afoul of Omos and championship partner AJ Styles. Orton defeated Styles on this past Monday's Raw.
In other action, five nights before he wrestles Jinder Mahal at SummerSlam, Drew McIntyre will face Mahal's henchmen Shanky and Veer in a handicap match.
Per the stipulation of the match, if McIntyre is victorious, then both Shanky and Veer will be barred from ringside for his match with Mahal on Saturday. But if Shanky and Veer win, then McIntyre's sword Angela will be banned from the match at SummerSlam.
