Monday Night Raw Preview 6/23/14: Money in the Bank Go-Home Show Featuring Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and More

The June 23, 2014 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw will emanate live from Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. at 8 p.m. Eastern and will serve as the go-home show for the Money in the Bank pay-per-view this Sunday.

Thus far, only three matches are officially set for the pay-per-view. The main attraction is the Money in the Bank Ladder Match for the vacant WWE World Heavyweight Championship, which features John Cena, Roman Reigns, Bray Wyatt, Cesaro, Randy Orton, Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio. These seven men had a showdown on Friday Night Smackdown last week and then competed in a 4-on-3 handicap match, which the babyfaces won when Cena tagged in Reigns, who cleaned house and speared Del Rio for the pin.

How will these seven men interact tonight? Will we see another match or series of matches among them before Sunday's pay-per-view? Will any Superstar establish himself as the favorite going into the title match? For the record, WWE sent out a survey recently asking whom fans would like to see Brock Lesnar face at SummerSlam for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, and the only choices were the seven men in this match.

WWE also announced a second, traditional Money in the Bank Ladder Match for the briefcase that allows the holder to cash in for a title match at any time. Seth Rollins announced the match last week and confirmed himself as the first participant. Rumors hold the other participants would be Dean Ambrose, Dolph Ziggler, Bad News Barrett, Rusev, Big E and Rob Van Dam. Will these participants become official tonight? How will WWE announce them?

The Usos will also defend their WWE Tag Team Championships against Luke Harper and Erick Rowan of The Wyatt Family. Will these two teams skirmish before the title match on Sunday? Will Bray Wyatt be involved in this match/feud, or will the family's leader be too busy with his own title match?

What other matches will WWE announce tonight for Sunday? Divas Champion Paige needs an opponent in order to defend her title at Money in the Bank. Much of the main event and mid-card talent is involved in the two ladder matches, but could any of them pull double duty?

As always, check back with MStars immediately after the show for a full recap of all the action. But for now, let us know your predictions for tonight's broadcast in the comments below.
