However Dom stays with Liv, but Ripley could still call for a rematch for the title, ensuring that Dom could be a threat to her challenge. Ripley could get her championship rematch at Bash in Berlin with special stipulations.

CM Punk recently got medically cleared and performed his first match at SummerSlam 2024. During his recovery time, Punk appeared on the shows and claimed that the next time he was in the city, he would be having his boots on for the fight. With that being said, Punk could make his Raw in-ring return after over ten years, irrespective of who his opponent is.

3. Trick Williams’s main roster debut

Trick Williams and Pete Dunne have been having a rivalry in NXT and they had a match last week. Dunne picked up the victory, however they brawled backstage to continue their feud.

2. Randy Orton’s in-ring return on Raw

Randy Orton is scheduled to appear on this week’s Raw, after getting his world title shot against Gunther for Bash in Berlin. Gunther has a routine of observing his opponents, by making his disciple Ludwig Kaiser pick up a fight against his opponents. At this stage, The Viper could have his first match on Raw after nearly ten months against Ludwig Kaiser.
