And now to the fall. With “Summerslam 2017” in the rear view mirror, it’s time to start things up for everything else this year. We’re still a few months away from “Survivor Series 2017” but we’re less than five weeks away from “No Mercy 2017”. While it’s not clear what’s going to be happening there, we do know what might be coming on this week’s “Monday Night Raw”.
WWE.com has released their official preview for the show with five points of interest. The biggest story is Brock Lesnar making an appearance, following his successful Universal Title defense against Roman Reigns, Braun Strowman and Samoa Joe. Here are the five major points from the official preview with a video for each:

Opinion: I’m actually excited about tonight’s show, assuming it leads to the most obvious huge match in the world of Strowman vs. Lesnar. The seeds have already been planted and hopefully we can get to that match sooner rather than later. The other interesting part is Reigns, who took the fall last night and will likely be requiring a rebuild starting tonight.
