Tonight’s WWE RAW will take place from the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada with fallout from last week’s reunion of The Shield.
* Braun Strowman wants to face Roman Reigns in the ring alone
* Ronda Rousey carries the torch
* Baron Corbin settles into his new position
* The Revival go 2-0 against the Raw Tag Team Champions
The Shield reunited at the end of RAW last night to help Roman Reigns fight of a attempt by Braun Strowman to cash in his MITB title shot.
Dean Ambrose and WWE Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins came out in their Shield gear right as Braun Strowman was about to cash in his Money In the Bank contract on WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns following his win over Finn Balor. The Shield destroyed Braun before he could cash in and ended the show by putting him through an announce table with a triple powerbomb.
Strowman posted a warning to The Shield on Twitter:

We now know why Matt Hardy has been teasing changes to his WWE status in a series of recent cryptic tweets. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Hardy is scheduled to take some time off due to injuries.
Hardy recently revealed that his lower back and pelvis have started fusing together, and while the pain isn’t too bad, it is frustrating. Hardy is planning on starting new training rehab methods that should help with the pain.
Hardy and Bray Wyatt’s match against The Revival and RAW Tag Team Champions The B Team on Monday’s RAW was done as the blow-off to The Deleters of Worlds tag team, as Hardy teased in his post-show tweet with Wyatt.

There has been talk of Hardy shadowing WWE producers to “learn the ropes” with the idea of him working a producer job in the future.
Hardy is scheduled to undergo treatments for his various injuries and after that is done, a decision will be made in regards to a possible ring return, what capacity he might return in and if he will have to work a limited schedule.

There was a bat flying around in the arena at last night’s RAW at the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina.
The bat managed to make a cameo during the opening segment with Ronda Rousey, Ember Moon, Alexa Bliss and Alicia Fox. While Rousey was outside of the ring she saw the bat and exclaimed, “Oh my God, there’s a bat!”
You can watch Rousey’s reaction in the video below:
“The Lunatic Fringe” Dean Ambrose returned to action with a new look on tonight’s SummerSlam go-home RAW from Greensboro in the main event segment, joining Seth Rollins to deliver a beatdown to Drew McIntyre and WWE Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler. Ambrose had been out of action since December 2017 with an ACL injury.
The storyline is that the SummerSlam contract for Rollins vs. Ziggler has a clause in it that allows Rollins to have someone in his corner to even the odds as McIntyre will be in Ziggler’s corner. Rollins revealed at the end of tonight’s show that his former partner in The Shield will be there with him in Brooklyn on Sunday.
The dark main event after this week’s SummerSlam go-home RAW in Greensboro, NC saw Dean Ambrose return to the ring. Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Finn Balor and Braun Strowman defeated Kevin Owens, Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and WWE Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler in eight-man action. The finish saw Strowman, Rollins and Balor hit finishers on their SummerSlam opponents while Ambrose hit Corbin with Dirty Deeds for the pin.
