 Raw preview, Aug. 21, 2023: Gunther defends his Intercontinental Title legacy against Chad Gable
The leader of Alpha Academy, Chad Gable, has been on a roll ever since he survived “The Ring General” Gunther’s five-minute challenge three weeks ago on Raw.
Following that victory of sorts, Gable earned his chance at Gunther’s Intercontinental Title by beating Tommaso Ciampa, Matt Riddle and Ricochet in a Fatal 4-Way Match two weeks ago.
The following week, the Alpha Academy leader further infuriated The Ring General, as Gable was able to conquer Imperium member Giovanni Vinci while Ludwig Kaiser seemed more interested in Maxxine Dupri.
Furious with how Imperium’s battles with Alpha Academy have been going, Gunther announced that Chad Gable would be cashing in his title opportunity next week.
With Gunther just days away from dethroning The Honky Tonk Man’s record Intercontinental Title reign, can The Ring General put away Chad Gable once and for all? Or will Gable upset Gunther just before the finish line? Find out tonight when Gunther puts the Intercontinental Title on the line against Chad Gable at 8/7 C on USA!
 The New Day go head-to-head with Drew McIntyre & Matt Riddle
"It's a New Day! Yes, it is!"
Yes, arguably one of the greatest tag teams in WWE history has returned to Raw in the form of Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. But will the incredible potential of newly formed tandem Drew McIntyre and Matt Riddle trump The Power of Positivity?
Find out when the two team square off tonight at 8/7 C on USA!
 Shinsuke Nakamura to reveal what he told Seth “Freakin” Rollins
Shinsuke Nakamura will tell the WWE Universe what he whispered into the ear of World Heavyweight Champion Seth “Freakin” Rollins when he grabs a microphone live on Monday Night Raw.
What will Nakamura say, and maybe more importantly, how will Rollins respond? Tune in tonight on USA at 8/7 C to find out! |

I fear that McIntyre will get cheered beyond belief when he inevitably obliterates Riddle
Unless Orton makes the save, I don’t foresee Drew being booed
