Tonight’s episode of the Red Brand will feature appearances from top stars!
Tonight’s episode of WWE RAW will feature an action-packed night filled with multiple appearances from top stars as Clash in Paris inches closer. It will be the final show from the main roster before WWE travels to Europe ahead of Clash in Paris.
The promotion has announced multiple matches and segments for the August 18 episode of Monday Night Raw, which is set to air live from the Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, along with the Vision (Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed & Paul Heyman), and CM Punk are set for an appearance on the show.
Three singles matches, along with a Women’s Intercontinental title match, have been set for the show. Additionally, Women’s World Champion Naomi is set to address the WWE Universe. Here we take a look at the top three potential endings for the show.
3. Vacant Women’s World title

Women’s World Champion Naomi is set to make an appearance on tonight’s show. There’s a lot of certainty surrounding her future, with rumors of injury, pregnancy, or all of being part of a storyline. If the rumors are true and Naomi is pregnant, she will likely step away from WWE programming for a long time.
If Naomi chooses to vacate the title, WWE could announce a vacant title match between Iyo Sky and Stephanie Vaquer for Clash in Paris. The promotion can also further the storyline between Rhea and Sky if the latter manages to regain the title.

2. The challengers retaliate

During last week’s show, Seth Rollins and Co. (Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker) attacked CM Punk and LA Knight during the main event, but Jey Uso rushed to their aid with a steel chair. General Manager Adam Pearce then announced a fatal four-way match where Rollins will defend the title against Punk, Knight, and Jey at Clash in Paris.
This announcement caused an argument between Punk and Knight, and while Jey tried to intervene, Rollins and Co. capitalized, beating the three men to end the show. However, the script might be flipped this week as Punk and Knight might team up to beat down Rollins, who could be left alone, due to Jey’s clash with Breakker and Roman Reigns’ appearance, who will likely target the ‘Tribal Thief’.
1. The Original Tribal Chief hits back

Following the vicious beatdown on the August 4 episode of Raw by Seth Rollins and Company, ‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns is set to appear on this week’s show.
Reigns is also scheduled to appear on next week’s show ahead of Clash in Paris, with all indications suggesting a showdown with “The Tribal Thief” Bronson Reed. He’s expected to confront and possibly attack Reed at the Xfinity Mobile Arena, setting the stage for their match at the upcoming PLE. The attack would also take Reed out of the equation, helping Punk and Knight get their hands on Rollins.
