The following matches and events are advertised for Monday’s WWE Raw television show.
-Roman Reigns vs. Jinder Mahal.
-Sasha Banks vs. Ember Moon vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Natalya in a four-way match.
-Finn Balor vs. Braun Strowman vs. Bobby Roode vs. Kevin Owens in a four-way match.
-Nia Jax and Ronda Rousey meet face to face heading into their title match at Money in the Bank.
Powell’s POV: The two four-way matches feature the Raw representatives in the Money in the Bank ladder matches. They noted on last week’s Raw that Bliss and Natalya suffered (storyline) injuries and are questionable for the women’s four-way. WWE scored a win when the NBA Finals ended in a four-game sweep on Friday night. They would have aired opposite Game 5 had it been necessary tonight. Instead, they are free of NBA and NHL Playoff competition for the MITB go-home show.

Why in the world would Kurt Angle (in storyline)keep booking his MITB participants in highly competitive matches? Seeing how half his women representatives are injured, or at the very least, not at 100% wouldn’t he “sit them out”? It’s almost as if he doesn’t want his brand to win either briefcase. I can understand why Stephanie has Corbin on his back. Angle is the dumbest G.M. in the history of the WWE Universe.
