Monday Night Raw Preview 7/27/15: Undertaker, Brock Lesnar, and SummerSlam

The July 27, 2015 edition of WWE's Monday Night Raw will emanate live from the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City and will continue to build toward SummerSlam in one month.

Last week featured the Raw return of The Undertaker, who explained why he attacked Brock Lesnar at Battleground. After more than a year of hearing Paul Heyman gloat about how his client ended the greatest streak in wrestling history, the Deadman simply couldn't take it anymore. He waited for the opportune moment and cost Lesnar the WWE World Heavyweight Championship when it was a mere second away from his grasp.

Later in the show last week, Heyman went out and gloated some more about how The Beast Incarnate was going to rip Taker apart at SummerSlam, so the Phenom showed up behind the walrus and threatened to obliterate him. Lesnar ran out and we had one of the best pull apart brawls in recent memory, as it practically took an army to restrain the two men.

Tonight, we'll likely hear more from Heyman, who will spout off at the mouth about what Lesnar plans to do to Undertaker in a month's time. It's unclear just how much the Deadman and Lesnar will show up in the buildup to this rematch, but the two men should stay away from each other tonight and for the next few weeks. In fact, I'd even take a stipulation in which the two men are not allowed to have any physical contact until SummerSlam. It's going to be hard to top that brawl from last week, so why try?

However, it will be a little troublesome if Heyman, despite his magic on the mic, is left to carry this entire feud by himself. Taker and Lesnar should appear, but infrequently. Unless, of course, Taker has decided to give it his all for one last run in the buildup to WrestleMania 32. We shall see.

Elsewhere, WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins bragged about how he beat Lesnar, even though he beat him about as much as I did, and I wasn't even in the building. United States Champion John Cena came out to call Rollins on his nonsense, and the Internet promptly imploded with cries that Cena is back in the title picture again. But this time, the story actually makes sense.

Cena has truly elevated the U.S. title and has been defending it in quality matches each and every week. Rollins, meanwhile, has run from every challenge with the possible exception of Dean Ambrose, a challenger he defeated by the skin of his teeth. So Cena is out to prove that Rollins is a fraud by tying Ric Flair's championship record. I'm on board. Hopefully Cena continues his U.S. Open Challenge tonight and doesn't get sucked into an endless promo battle with Rollins.

Kevin Owens seems to be in a feud with Cesaro now, which is every indie fan's dream. These two clashed during Owens' feud with Cena, so I'm looking forward to see what they can do in a proper feud with each other. Cesaro has called out Owens for acting like a coward, so let's see how the former NXT Champion responds tonight.

Finally, the Divas continue to transform thanks to the main roster appearances of Charlotte, Becky Lynch, and Sasha Banks. Will we get any indication tonight as to which women will square off at SummerSlam?
