Tonight’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw is set to feature the fallout from the Extreme Rules pay-per-view, and this week’s show will take place from the Mohegan Sun Arena in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
Following the Extreme Rules pay-per-view we now know that Samoa Joe will battle Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at WWE Great Balls of Fire in July. So far no matches have been announced for tonight’s show, but WWE is teasing that we’ll be hearing more about the controversial text that could ruin Kurt Angle’s career, and The Miz also announced that he will be holding a big celebration to kick off his Intercontinental Title comeback tour on Raw.
