The April 6, 2015 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw will emanate live from the Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas and will continue to address the fallout from WrestleMania 31 last Sunday.
The show will air on the USA Network but if you can't watch on TV, then you can try here or here, both of which broadcast free live streams of the show (this may require downloading a torrent).
Now that things have calmed down a bit after Mania and the post-Mania Raw, we have a clearer picture of where things are headed as we approach the Extreme Rules pay-per-view later this month. Last week, Brock Lesnar went on a rampage after new WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins weaseled his way out of a rematch. The Beast Incarnate took out the entire commentary team, including an F5 to Michael Cole, and delivered two F5s to a cameraman. Stephanie McMahon promptly responded by suspending him.
On Thursday Night SmackDown, we learned that Rollins will defend the title against Randy Orton at Extreme Rules. Will The Viper make a move on the cowardly champion tonight? Or will Rollins use his underhanded tactics to gain an advantage?
Daniel Bryan has a firm grip on the Intercontinental Championship, but Sheamus has returned with a new look and a mean streak and seems ready to take that belt out of Bryan's hands. Will the people's hero fend off the Irish combatant, or will Sheamus gain the upper hand on his former rival?
John Cena is the United States Champion, and he has pledged to defend the belt in an open challenge every week. We also know that he will face Rusev in a third match at Extreme Rules. Will the pro-Russian super athlete take back his belt? Will he attack Cena tonight? Or will the 15-time world champion do his country proud?
And don't forget that Chris Jericho will do a live podcast with Cena on the WWE Network immediately after the show. If you're wondering why Y2J is doing this instead of Stone Cold Steve Austin, allow The Wrestling Observer to explain:
"Live with Chris Jericho - This will be a once a month, one-hour show where Jericho interviews WWE talent after Raw. The format is expected to be similar to the Steve Austin interviews with Vince McMahon and HHH that garnered a lot of attention. The first show will air on 4/6, with John Cena as guest. It’s notable that it’s Jericho and not Austin doing the show. One person close to the situation said that there was a falling out of sorts between McMahon and Austin and that Vince was not happy with Austin’s interview with HHH. He then wanted a change in hosts, and he picked Jericho. I’m not sure exactly what, but the item that seemed to cause the most controversy after the fact was Austin asking about Chyna in the Hall of Fame, and the fallout of Chyna resurfacing, and talking about HHH and the physical abuse allegation."
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 thoughts, opinions, guesses, and predictions for tonight's show in the comments section.
