WWE Raw preview: Cody Rhodes, Becky Lynch have beefs to settle

Tonight’s episode of WWE Raw also features a women’s tag team title match and a Battle Royal to determine Gunther’s No. 1 contender.

Not with each other, mind you. But both Cody Rhodes and Becky Lynch are going to be addressing enemies who have proven particularly persistent on tonight’s episode of WWE from Greensboro, NC.

Rhodes defeated Brock Lesnar at Backlash, thinking he had put the Beast Incarnate behind him as he moved on to the World Heavyweight Championship Tournament. Alas, Lesnar has other plans (as he often does), attacking Rhodes mid-match and leaving no doubt that he wanted to keep their feud going.

What choice does the American Nightmare have but to accept Lesnar’s … um, request for another match at Night of Champions? Probably nonw, but we’ll find out tonight.

As for Lynch, she’s already clapped back at Trish Stratus for mocking her for being absent in recent weeks. The Man especially wasn’t going to let jokes about her young daughter slide, so now Stratus is likely going to have to agree to a match as well — but then again, that may be what she wanted all along. In any case, Lynch will get a chance to address Stratus in Greensboro.

Is there any wrestling on this card, you may ask? Yes, yes there is. For starters, Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez will once again defend their WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship, this time against Chelsea Green and Sonya Deville. After accidentally talking his way into it last week, The Miz will face Shinsuke Nakamura. And a Battle Royal will determine the No. 1 contender for the Ring General himself, Gunther, now that he’s going to be defending his Intercontinental Championship on Monday nights.

This all sounds like fun, right? We think so too. We’ll be tuned in to USA at 8 p.m. tonight to see how it all goes down, so please join us back here on Wrestling Junkie if you’re unable to do the same.
