WWE Raw: Potential Spoilers, Rumors, News and Preview for July 15

The victors at Money in the Bank will get little chance to celebrate on the June 15 edition of WWE Raw.

After snatching the Money in the Bank briefcase on Sunday, Sheamus is certain to have tough battles ahead of him. John Cena knocked off Kevin Owens but may limp into Raw. As for Seth Rollins, the glow of his win over Dean Ambrose will surely fade quickly.

Rollins likely has a destroyer headed for him.

Cleveland hosts all the action in and out of the ring just a day before it does the same for Game 6 of the NBA Finals. The Raw pre-show kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET on the WWE Network. The three-hour squared circle smorgasbord that is Raw itself airs on USA Network beginning at 8 p.m. ET.

Backstage reports, current storyline arcs and James Wortman's five-point preview for WWE.com provided a peek at the future, letting fans know what to expect on the post-PPV show.

Hometown Guest Star

Cleveland native Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) is set to work with WWE for the second time. As WWE announced on its official website, the rapper will perform on Monday's Raw.

MGK previously took to the stage for WWE at WrestleMania 28 with "Invincible," the theme song for the event. He didn't get a favorable response that night: A good portion of the crowd booed him.

He has a better shot of getting more love from the fans in attendance this time around, as he's got home-field advantage working for him.

News, Potential Spoilers

The WWE ecosystem will soon welcome a predator back: Brock Lesnar is rumored to return from his storyline suspension.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (h/t WrestlingInc), WWE plans to bring back both Paul Heyman and Lesnar on Monday night. The Beast Incarnate is reportedly set to be a regular part of WWE programming until at least SummerSlam.

That likely signals a continuation of the issues between him and Rollins. It was the current champ's refusal to fight him that set him on a rampage months ago.

WWE saluted the late Dusty Rhodes on several occasions during the Money in the Bank pay-per-view. It looks as if there are more tributes to come in Cleveland.

PWInsider's Mike Johnson reported, "WWE will feature video highlights of Rhodes' magnificent career over the course of Monday's Raw as well as additional video tributes."

It will be hard to top the moving video WWE put together for The American Dream over the weekend:

In addition to Lesnar and the usual faces, Monday's Raw should also feature the NXT champion once again. James Caldwell of Pro Wrestling Torch noted that Owens is among the Superstars advertised to appear on Raw in addition to Ambrose, Cena, Rollins, Sheamus, Big Show and Roman Reigns.

Money in the Bank Fallout

There is bound to be retribution coming for The Eater of Worlds. The only question is how much of it will occur on Monday's Raw.

Bray Wyatt charged into the Money in the Bank ladder match and attacked Roman Reigns. That unexplained ambush prevented Reigns from winning and surely kicked off a feud between the two.

An angry Reigns will be on the hunt for Wyatt right away. Wortman hinted at that when he asked, "Will Reigns get payback against The Eater of Worlds on Raw?"

King Barrett will have similar plans for R-Truth. The rapping wrestler embarrassed him on Sunday by beating him and then trying out his crown. As surprising as it may be, signs indicate that this rivalry will roll on.

For one, WWE featured R-Truth in a post-match interview during Money in the Bank in which he sold his victory as his dethroning of Barrett:

He also talked of moats and spiders, seemingly setting up a story where these two men battle over the right to be called king. Of the feud, Wortman wrote, "WWE's bizarre 'Game of Thrones' continues tonight."

Cena vs. Owens is continuing as well. As for what happens between them on Monday night, it depends on how much WWE wants to sell the fan favorite's injury status.

Owens left him hobbled after their match with a powerbomb to the ring apron. Will Cena bounce right up after that, or will WWE try to milk this? As hurt as he was made to look at Money in the Bank, it looks like Cena's weekly United States Championship open challenges are in jeopardy Monday night.

Monday's Raw should also feature Sheamus in a big way.

He outlasted his foes in a grueling ladder match to become the newest Mr. Money in the Bank. It seems unlikely that he would go after fellow heel Rollins, especially if he didn't do so after the champ just barely survived his battle with Ambrose.

Still, Sheamus will be in the spotlight. Wortman pointed to that happening when he wrote, "Expect The Celtic Warrior to dominate Raw, one way or another."

As for the man who should be keeping an eye out for Sheamus, Rollins looks to be headed somewhere new. His feud with Ambrose feels over for now after an emphatic win in a ladder match. There were no flukes, no interference and no doubts this time. 

So it's no surprise that Wortman teased that Rollins be getting a new rival and storyline. He wondered of the champ, "Will he set out to forge a new path?"

With Lesnar in the same building, that path is sure to be one that crosses with The Beast Incarnate's.

WWE will finally have some time to build between pay-per-views, with Battleground not coming for another five weeks. That gives the company ample space to tell Rollins' story, whether it features Lesnar or some other rival looking to take his crown from him.
