Fresh Backstage WWE Rumors 👊

Modern-Day Dream Matches 💭

Most Likely Backlash Heel/Face Turns 🎭
New Orleans will host the go-home edition of Raw. Fans in the Big Easy may see a few Superstars returning to action in addition to all the PPV hype.
The action kicks off inside the Smoothie King Center at 8 p.m. ET on the USA Network. Backstage reports, social media and the Raw preview on WWE.com provide an early look on what to expect to unfold.
News, Potential Spoilers
The watch for the return of The Boss continues.
Dave Meltzer reported in late May on F4WOnline.com, "Sasha Banks has been cleared to work after what is believed to have been a concussion." Banks has been competing at house shows but hasn't appeared on Raw since April.
Meltzer also mentioned that WWE originally planned to have her compete at Money in the Bank.
That doesn't appear to be happening, though. The PPV is quickly approaching, and WWE would have to fast-track any storyline involving her. With that in mind, Banks may not be back until after Money in the Bank.

Bray Wyatt is in a similar situation.
After suffering a calf injury in April, The Eater of Worlds has been sitting on the bench as fans keep waiting for him to pop up. According to PWInsider Elite (h/t Wrestling Inc), Wyatt was expected to be back on the road with WWE in early June.
Wyatt tweeted a reference to New Orleans in early June, perhaps a tease of his comeback:
Meanwhile, the battle for control of Raw and SmackDown should intensify. Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon has been running the show without her brother Shane to get in the way, but that will change on Monday night.
As James Caldwell of Pro Wrestling Torch noted, "Shane McMahon is advertised for this week's Raw."

The Shield will be in the same ring together again. The defunct faction isn't reforming, though, just standing face to face in what is sure to be a contentious scene.
Dean Ambrose will welcome his former stablemates, Rollins and Reigns, as he hosts an Ambrose Asylum segment on Monday's Raw:
The Lunatic Fringe is poised to get caught in the middle as the world champion and his opponent at the Money in the Bank PPV collide. Reigns is sure to still be seething after Rollins attacked him at the close of Extreme Rules.
WWE has held off on having those rivals clash since that attack. Rollins refused to get in between the ropes with The Big Dog a few weeks back. Last week, video clips advanced the feud. Monday's Raw now promises violence.
Money in the Bank Build
Monday's Raw has to answer the question of whether it will be six or seven men vying for the Money in the Bank briefcase on Sunday.
Owens, Sami Zayn, Cesaro, Chris Jericho, Alberto Del Rio and Ambrose all qualified for the PPV's ladder match early on. WWE had previously mentioned the bout would feature an additional combatant. But with less than a week to go, there has been no word on who that final entrant is or if the company has just chosen to shrink the field by one.
Should Wyatt return, he is the safe bet to step in as the seventh man.
The Tag Team Championship matchup is already at capacity. The New Day will defend against The Club, The Vaudevillains and the duo of Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady.
New Day's foes and their hunt for momentum may be a focus of Monday's Raw. The WWE.com preview stated, "Something tells us that the three challenging tandems—all of whom emerged on the main roster recently—are preparing to make their mark on The New Era, and make The New Day old news."
WWE added another title match to the docket last week, announcing during an interview with Titus O'Neil that the powerhouse will be taking on Rusev for the United States Championship:
That storyline has only progressed in baby steps. O'Neil has continually stood up to the champ, forcing him into retreat, but only teasing a brawl between the two. Monday should see something more substantial between them.
The Raw preview noted, "If Rusev starts belittling Americans on Raw, six nights before their one-on-one title clash, expect O’Neil to leave The Bulgarian Brute red, white and bruised."
And even though Rollins' quest to regain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship is likely to be Money in the Bank's final bout, Cena vs. AJ Styles has felt like the PPV's true main event.
There is a dream-match quality to this showdown of Superstars. And the chemistry between them has been excellent thus far. WWE is sure to recognize that and give this feud plenty of airtime come Monday.
Chances are, the latest chapter in this rivalry will see Cena have to fend off an attack by Styles and his cronies. The Raw preview asked, "Will The Club give Cena an early, painful preview of what he can expect next Sunday in Las Vegas?"
That sure sounds like a tease of Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson looking to overwhelm Cena before Money in the Bank.
WWE would be wise to script action like that. The PPV card is strong, and the build for the top two bouts has been fantastic, but the more electricity the company can create ahead of Sunday's event, the better.
