WWE 'Monday Night Raw' Spoilers 10/19/15: Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair
The October 19, 2015 episode of WWE's Monday Night Raw will emanate live from the American Airlines Center in Dallas and will be the go-home show for the Hell in a Cell pay-per-view on Sunday. A host of stars and Legends have been advertised for tonight, including Brock Lesnar, The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, and Ric Flair. We've got a full preview of the show for you, so let's dive into it.
Lesnar and the Undertaker will face off for the final time inside the confines of Hell in a Cell on Sunday, so tonight is the last chance WWE has to truly hype us up for this match. Lesnar ended the Undertaker's legendary Streak at WrestleMania 30, but the Deadman used some shady methods (including a low blow and some confusion from the officials) to get his first career win over The Beast Incarnate at SummerSlam in August.
That was the last time the two men were in the same building. The last time they were both on Raw, we were treated to one of the greatest pull apart brawls in WWE history, punctuated by Lesnar's "I'm gonna kill you!" and Taker's "You're gonna have to!" It's unlikely we'll see the two men have such an epic physical encounter tonight, but there are still ways to build the tension.
For starters, Lesnar almost certainly cannot close the show because he will appear on Stone Cold Steve Austin's podcast directly after Raw. So any interaction between him and Taker would likely take place to kick off the 10 p.m. hour, particularly because that would likely align with halftime of the Monday Night Football game between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles.
Michaels and Flair could be there as part of a "Legends Panel" that WWE loves to run in situations like this in which they predict who will win the match on Sunday. Stone Cold has been advertised, then removed, then advertised again, then removed again for Raw tonight, so we'll have to see if he is there, too Regardless, we have Lesnar's podcast with Austin to enjoy after the show.
Elsewhere, Roman Reigns and Bray Wyatt will also face off inside the cell on Sunday, and Bray promised on Thursday Night SmackDown last week that he has some sort of special prophecy to fulfill for his rival tonight on Raw. Reigns and Wyatt have traded victories throughout this war, which has been raging since the early summer. They'll look to settle things on Sunday inside the diabolical steel structure, but what tricks could Bray have in store tonight?
Finally, Seth Rollins continues to be unable to outsmart Corporate Kane and/or The Demon Kane. The Director of Operations has managed to get the upper hand on the WWE World Heavyweight Champion at almost every turn, and last week the demon defeated the champion in a Lumberjack Match, punctuated with a Tombstone Piledriver. Is there any way Rollins can turn the tables on his foe tonight, or will WWE continue to make Kane look like a serious threat to Rollins' title before this Sunday?
As always, check back with MStars immedaitely after the show for a full recap of all the action. But for now, let us know your predictions for tonight's episode in the comments section below.
