How to wrap up an August. We’re rapidly on the road to “No Mercy 2017” with a main event clash already set and several more matches seemingly in the works. That means it’s time for another episode of “Monday Night Raw” to really set up some of the things we have in the near future.
WWE.com has released the official preview for tonight’s show, with the headlining story being Sasha Banks defending the Raw Women’s Title against Alexa Bliss. Banks has never actually successfully defended the title in her three previous reigns as champion so she has her work cut out for her.
Here are the five stories WWE.com is promoting with a video for each:

Opinion: I’m already sold on the pay per view due to the main event alone but there are some good stories to go with it. In this case you have Banks vs. Bliss in what feels like a big match, though more importantly they’ve actually let it have a week to build. The show should be good and that’s a very good thing with “Monday Night Football” only a few weeks away.
What are you looking forward to most on this week’s show? Who leaves with the Women’s Title? Let us know in the comments below.
