Last night I was in attendance for WWE Monday Night RAW In Evansville, IN. I was sitting to the side of the stage behind the announce table. Here are some photos I took from the show:

Big Cass Turns On Enzo Amore, Reveals He Was The Backstage Attacker (Video)
The mystery of who’s been attacking Enzo Amore and Big Cass was finally solved last night on RAW.
Kurt Angle closed out the show by questioning The Revival and Big Show about the backstage attacks, but neither were the guilty party.
With no suspects left, Corey Graves stood up from the commentary table and said he had some important security footage, which revealed that Cass faked his injuries in order to make himself look innocent.
Big Cass finally admitted it was him.
Cass said he was tired of always protecting Enzo and the attacks were merely a sign that he had enough. Enzo started to cry as Cass told him he was holding the two back from ever being champion in NXT or on Raw. He then said that they were through and delivered a big boot to Enzo’s face before walking off to end the show.
Braun Strowman Returns, Challenges Roman Reigns To An Ambulance Match
Braun Strowman made a surprise return last night on RAW. Strowman arrived to the arena in an ambulance which distracted Roman Reigns and allowed Samoa Joe to take advantage and choke Reigns out with the Coquina Clutch.
Strowman made his way to the ring after the match to remind Reigns that he is not finished with him. Strowman slammed Roman to the mat with a reverse chokeslam and challenged him to an ambulance match at the upcoming Great Balls of Fire pay-per-view.
Braun was expected to be out of action four to eight weeks and not up to six months as WWE wrote on WWE.com to further storylines, so it looks like everything is on schedule.

More On Braun Strowman’s WWE Return
After having minor elbow surgery, reports have gone back and forth on if Braun Strowman is cleared for action by the WWE.
No matter the case, it looks like he will be scheduled to work the Great Balls of Fire PPV on July 9. It’s expected to be against Roman Reigns, since that was the original plan before Strowman would go on to face Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam.
Strowman and Lesnar’s SummerSlam match was – as of last week – planned to be the show’s main event.

WWE Planning a Kurt Angle vs. Triple H Match?
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio (via wrestlinginc.com), WWE officials are planning a Kurt Angle vs. Triple H match. There is no timeline on when it will happen, but the feeling is that it will be linked with the storyline WWE has been doing with Angle and Corey Graves. Raw Commissioner Stephanie McMahon is expected back soon, which could also be part of the build to the match.

Braun Strowman Cleared For WWE Return
Braun Strowman has been cleared to return to action, according to PWInsider. Word going around at last night’s WWE RAW was that Strowman was cleared a week ago. He will be back on RAW as soon as creative comes up with a plan for his return.
Strowman underwent elbow surgery in mid-May to fix some issues he’d been dealing with. WWE reported then that Braun would be out of action for up to 6 months but it was speculated that the lengthy absence was announced just to set up a super-human comeback ahead of schedule.
It will be interesting to see how WWE brings Strowman back as he’s still in a feud with Roman Reigns. Braun has stated that he’s not done with Reigns yet. As noted, Reigns will be on next week’s RAW to announce his SummerSlam plans.
