Monday Night Raw Preview 11/18/13: Raw Goes Country for Survivor Series 2013 Go-Home Show
The Nov. 18, 2013 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw will emanate live tonight from The Bridgestone Arena in Nashville and will have the theme of "Raw Country." The show will also serve as the go-home show for Sunday's Survivor Series pay-per-view.
So far, only the following three matches have been confirmed for the pay-per-view:
Randy Orton (c) vs. Big Show for the WWE Championship
John Cena (c) vs. Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight Championship
CM Punk and Daniel Bryan vs. The Wyatt Family (Luke Harper and Erick Rowan)
WWE will likely add multiple matches to the card during tonight's edition of Raw or, at the very least, sow the seeds for some more Survivor Series matches. There are also several plot threads that will likely continue tonight.
First, The Authority returns from its vacation, which means Triple H and Stephanie McMahon will be back in business tonight. How will they react to Big Show's dismantling of Randy Orton last week on Raw, and in what other feuds will they involve themselves? Kane also took a bit more of an authoritative role last week, and The Big Red Machine could continue that tonight.
The Wyatt Family will also likely to soften up CM Punk and Daniel Bryan before the match on Sunday, but the two stars have been holding their own against the family in recent weeks. Who will get the upper hand tonight?
Alberto Del Rio will face John Cena on Sunday and will more than likely try to hurt the champ's arm before their match. Will he attack the champion again tonight?
What exactly does "Raw Country" entail? The band Florida Georgia Line is set to perform on the show, but what other surprises are in store?
As always, check back with MStars immediately after the show for a full recap of all the action.
