WWE Raw Preview: Clash in Italy Go-Home Show

Exciting Developments Ahead for WWE Raw

The upcoming WWE Raw show, which serves as the go-home event for the Clash in Italy, promises to be a thrilling edition. The event will take place at the Schottenstein Center in Columbus, Ohio, and will be available globally on Netflix at 8/7c. This special episode is packed with storylines, matches, and surprises that are sure to keep fans engaged.

Oba Femi’s Opening Act

Oba Femi will kick off the WWE Raw broadcast, and while it’s unclear if this will be an open challenge, it’s expected to be a significant moment. Given that Femi is set to face the not-not retired Brock Lesnar at Clash in Italy, it’s likely that he will use this opportunity to express his determination to end Lesnar’s career. This could mark a new direction for Femi’s character, as he has been opening different segments each week, from the broadcast itself to other unique ideas.

Roman Reigns vs. Jacob Fatu

Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu will sign their contract for the World Heavyweight Championship match scheduled for May 31 in Turin. Despite their history of clashes, Fatu has had more success in their encounters. However, fans can expect Reigns to come out on top in the inevitable altercation on WWE Raw. This match is highly anticipated and will be a key highlight of the show.

Becky Lynch vs. Sol Ruca

Becky Lynch and Sol Ruca will have a chance to exchange words before they head to Turin. Lynch will defend her WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship against Ruca in Italy. This match was prompted by Lynch’s quick disqualification during Saturday Night’s Main Event, which forced WWE management to book the clash in Italy.

Match Card Overview

The WWE Raw match card is shaping up to be exciting. Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez, members of the Judgment Day, lost their tag title shot against Paige and Brie Bella last week. To make matters worse, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria attacked them unprovoked. This incident has set the stage for a compelling matchup between the Texan Two and Bayley and Valkyria.

Seth Rollins defeated Austin Theory on WWE Raw, which could be the start of an unofficial gauntlet to reach Bron Breakker. An addition of Rollins vs. Logan Paul to the match card would be a great move, setting up a potential clash between Rollins and Breakker at Clash in Italy.

Other Storylines

After The Vision retained their tag gold against The Street Profits at Saturday Night’s Main Event, Dawkins and Ford might want a piece of them. Finn Balor’s victory over JD McDonagh in a street fight was notable, especially due to Dominik Mysterio’s interference. This could lead to Balor seeking a shot at Dom on WWE Raw.

Fans can also expect to see El Grande Americano and his Los Americanos, along with The Original El Grande Americano and his Los Americanos Hermanos. The highly anticipated Mask vs. Mask match is scheduled for the night before Clash In Italy. However, there are doubts about this match due to potential legal issues involving one of the participants. WWE Raw will be a good place to see if the company continues to promote this major match.
