WWE Raw Preview And Prediction: How, When And Where To Watch In USA, Europe And India – 18th September 2023
The world of WWE is set to witness another electrifying episode of RAW on the 18th of September, as rivalries intensify and storylines unravel. Here’s a detailed look into what to expect and where to catch the action across the USA, Europe, and India.
To begin with, the curtain is drawing on a rivalry that has managed to grip the fans over the past weeks. The dynamic duo, New Day, is all set to take on the Viking Raiders in a thrilling 2 out of 3 falls match. This particular bout holds significance, given the history of their previous encounters. It was merely three weeks ago when the Viking Raiders emerged victorious, courtesy of an unforeseen interference by Drew McIntyre, which inadvertently led to New Day’s defeat. This time around, the question that lingers is if New Day can channel their energy, regroup, and score a decisive win against their fierce opponents.
Adding to the excitement, Cody Rhodes and Dominik Mysterio are primed to renew their intense rivalry. The recent spark was ignited when Dominik took the opportunity to express his gratitude towards Cody for bringing Jey Uso into the RAW fray. However, a seemingly harmless flick of Cody’s tie by Dominik spiraled into an unexpected skirmish between the two. Things took a further twist when JD McDonagh attempted to assist Cody, but in a shocking move, Cody retaliated with a Crossrhodes on JD. Now, the WWE universe awaits with bated breath for their singles match showdown this Monday. With Cody having the psychological edge from their previous bout at Money in the Bank, will history repeat itself, or will Dominik turn the tables this time?
While the attention remains high on Cody and Dominik, there’s an equally engaging narrative unfolding between Shinsuke Nakamura and Ricochet. Nakamura, who has been locking horns with the World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, seems to have found a parallel adversary in Ricochet. Whereas, Nakamura has already lost to Seth Rollins in the WWE Payback. But Seth wants a rematch, as he talked about Seth’s wife and kids.
But after the challenge, Nakamura redirected his aggression towards a backstage attack on Ricochet. Offering a justification for his actions, Nakamura stated Rollins was medically not fit for combat, prompting him to seek out another target for the week. Now, Ricochet is geared up for retribution as he squares off against Nakamura on RAW. The stakes are high, and the animosity is palpable.
Lastly, a confrontation that’s been the talk of the town is the faceoff between Jey Uso and Drew McIntyre. Drew McIntyre is already fed up with the Bloodline as they have missed the opportunity to win the World Title against Roman Reigns. So the match won’t be easy for Jey Uso.
McIntyre, who harbors a deep-seated mistrust for Uso, is no stranger to the intensity and pressure of such confrontations. As Jey Uso steps into the ring, he doesn’t just battle McIntyre, but also the weight of proving his mettle as “The Main Event”. Will Uso rise to the occasion, or will the former WWE Champion, McIntyre, reign supreme?
