RAW RATING OF THE WEEK: 1.73 (.05 IMPROVEMENT WEGK) Arena, Elements published by WWE and start time of the broadcast
WWE Raw returns to Sprint Center in Kansas City, MO. after appearing just six months ago in November, shortly after Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. Ironically, we are on the way to the next edition of the Super Showdown (Part II) by Saudi Arabia on June 7, what the WWE simply tells us from "Jeddah".
Here is what has been announced so far for tonight's show: [19659007] Matches & Segments:
- Brock Lesnar Will Announce His Blockbuster Decision
- The Future of US Championship will be tackled
Follow-up of the script:
- The chaos persists
- Who will be Becky Lynch Next challenge
Decision of Brock Lesnar
As we know, Brock Lesnar won the contract Money in the Bank of 2019.
Last week at Raw, Brock brought us back in the 1980s by taking out the briefcase as follows: a boombox. Nevertheless, Brock's attorney, Paul Heyman, called him "purveyor of paranoia" and quickly refuted the theory that Brock would attack Sami Zayn, the man whose Brock took eighth place in the match of Money in the Bank.
WWE Universal Champion Seth Rollins came out and tried to convince Brock to disburse the contract. WWE Champion Kofi Kingston, via the joker, did the same. He invoked the creation of his legacy and his desire to be one of the best of all time to explain why he wanted Brock to bring him up to date. Paul Heyman said to stay because Kofi and Seth had a match after that and the "Beast was yet to come".
Kofi and Seth defeated the dynamic and charismatic duo of Baron Corbin & Bobby Lashley in the final. segment. They would then be attacked by Lashley and we would hear Brock's music. Brock arrived with Heyman and cashed with Kofi and Seth who were in the ring side by side, belt in hand. Brock left the ring with Heyman telling him that he had a cool head and that they could come back next week (tonight) to inform them of Brock's decision. Here's a little chat on Twitter last week:
Memo at @WWERollins and / or @TrueKofi (or maybe even @HEELZiggler ): Good evening, gentlemen My client and I looked at all the options. Here is the only thing that is absolutely positive. WARRANTY: @BrockLesnar is in control. This is not a prediction. It's a spoiler! pic.twitter.com/bogm8zC4yt

Bear in In the spirit, Kofi defends his WWE title against the return of Dolph Ziggler to the Super Showdown. Seth does not have an opponent for "the international event". Brock makes his decision tonight.
Frank's badysis: I do not know everyone, but I did not think he would cash in last week. It would not surprise me, although the WWE says that Brock makes his decision tonight, if he does not really do it and decides to drag him out. Logically, as Seth has no opponent for Saudi Arabia and Brock is the guy Seth defeated at WrestleMania, one would think they would go to that match. If they had to do it, it would be pointless, at least for me, to make money at the bank in Brock because they could have organized this match despite the fact that someone everyone else won the briefcase. Here is the bottom line. Brock will cash in the case when Vince McMahon wants to, and there is no way to guess when it will happen. We can think of it in a logical way and suggest scenarios that make sense (Saudi Arabia, PPV, Smackdown debuts on FOX), but the end result is that you never know what Vince is thinking and trying to understand is unsuccessful.
The status of the American Championship
Rey Mysterio defeated Samoa Joe at Money in the Bank to win his first American championship of his career. The match was cut short because of Samoa Joe's blood loss. When Rey scored the pin, one of Joe's shoulders seemed to come off the mat. The referee did not see that.
Last week, advertisers reviewed the screenplay and told us that Rey had a separate shoulder in the game. Samoa Joe said it was a perfect opportunity for Rey to give the example to her son Dominic and give the title to Joe. Here is this clip and the tweets of Joe and Rey during the week:
There will be justice, lest the Son suffer the sins of the Father ..

Thank you 🙏🏼 @thelabprc for putting me back together & always looking out for me! Highly recommend any athlete or non athlete with injuries to stop by and let them look out for you! #TheStaffIsNumero1 #Cryo #Sauna… https://t.co/zoqEeFPkDT

According to multiple reports, Rey is legitimately injured. How long it will miss is unknown. Tonight we learn the state of the American championship.
Frank's badysis: The WWE probably resisted everything, as it seems that Rey is trying to rehabilitate his shoulder without surgery. There is no shortage of time, I do not see the title given to Joe, but rather a type of tournament or a mechanism to nominate someone to face Joe for the US championship, perhaps to Super Showdown. If Shane McMahon is now to be tied to Roman Reigns, then Miz would not be a bad idea to face Joe for the championship, especially if they want to put the title back on Joe. A feud Miz-Joe would not be the worst thing in the world.
Chaos 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
Last week at Raw, Mick Foley presented the 24/7 WWE Hall Championship. Like the bad Championship, it can be defended anywhere and at any time as long as a referee is present. The crowd did not hear the news with enthusiasm and even a little hue when Mick explained the concept 24 hours a day.
He announced that there would be a crazy race for the championship won by Titus O'Neil. Moments later, Robert Roode attacked Titus and tackled him to become the new champion. Later, after being chased by just about everyone at the bottom of the map, Roode met R-Truth who had hidden it in the trunk of his car. Once everyone was cleared, Truth let Roode out of the chest. It's a good thing that Truth knew that Roode was going to pick him up because he had a referee hidden in the front seat and, after knocking him out, Roode scored three points and R-Truth became the champion in 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Last week, Drake Maverick was the one who pursues the truth the most. Here's a mix of tweets from both gentlemen:

I could literally fill in this report with tweets. Every day there is something new. What can we say? The story continues 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Frank Analysis: You can not help but feel bad for Mick who was left for dead by presenting this title which WWE no did not need more than a second. The problem is that this company does not use its lower card. If that's the only way to get them on TV, what can you do? It does not help either when the lower card players beat Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley, who could not be bothered by what was happening. On the other hand, I must admit that there is a level of comedy to that which makes me laugh. The truth is funny with everything he's doing, and Maverick is chasing him and their tweets are pretty fun.
Becky Lynch's Next Challenger
Last week, Becky Lynch, Raw's champion, was invited to participate in the Alexa Bliss Show at Moment of Happiness Spectacle. She was interrupted by WWE Women's Team Champions, The Iiconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce), who commented that Becky was no longer "Becky 2 Belts" but that they had two belts , referring to their titles. drink at this point). Lacey Evans appeared and pointed out that Becky was no longer playing the championship at Smackdown. All this led to a match against six women with Becky teaming with Nikki Cross and Alexa Bliss against Iiconics and Lacey. Becky, Nikki and Alexa won when Becky pinned Kay
Last Tuesday, Lacey spoke in an exclusive WWE.com. Here is this clip and some tweets from Becky:
Imagine how high you are when people think it's mocking to argue that you only have one title . #beckyredbelt pic.twitter.com/WgN3PGT3CL

– The Man (@BeckyLynchWWE) May 21, 2019
Tonight, we are looking to see if Lacey has another chance against Becky or if WWE will determine a other candidate # 1.
Frank's badysis: I highly recommend and I would STRONGLY recommend becoming a VIP here on PWTorch.com. Last week's fix with Todd Martin. It absolutely describes Becky 's poor quality reserve for both belts and the IIconics mocking her at the Moment of Bliss show. I'll add that I doubt Becky wins both titles at WrestleMania if they just want Bayley to earn Money in the Bank and cash Charlotte Flair the same evening. While I was against the gimmick, Becky 2 Belts would have done much better if she had won both her matches at MITB and established that she was an unstoppable champion. That would have meant that the beat made sense. I understand that Lacey's interference protected Becky from MITB against Charlotte, but the fact that she made fun of the IIconics made her ridiculous. At least she tackled it on Twitter. She should have been furious Monday night and pointed out the absurdity of what Lacey had cost her the title of Smackdown. Since Becky beat Lacey at MITB and pinned her to Smackdown in a team match, why do I want to see Lacey versus Becky again?

- The Revival defeated Usos. Fortunately, no grooming or medicated product was involved
