WWE Raw preview, May 20, 2019: Welcome to the era of “Mr. Money in the Beast”
Brock Lesnar stormed out of nowhere to win the Men’s Money in the Bank contract, meaning Universal Champion Seth Rollins will have little time to rest on his laurels following a win over AJ Styles. Plus, Becky Lynch faces life as a single champion for the first time since WrestleMania, and WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley returns to introduce WWE’s newest championship. Raw airs live tonight at 8/7 C on USA Network.
Money is the Beast In one of the most stunning moments in WWE Money in the Bank history, Brock Lesnar emerged out of nowhere as a replacement to the attacked Sami Zayn and laid waste to Ali to capture the Money in the Bank contract. As a result, Seth Rollins will surely have little time to celebrate his victory over AJ Styles. As if The Beast wasn’t already one of the most dangerous threats to the Universal Championship, Lesnar comes with the complete unpredictability of a Money in the Bank cash-in, whenever he chooses to utilize it. Will light be shed on Lesnar’s latest conquest and how it came to be?
A new championship emerges
One of the more unexpected twists of WWE Money in the Bank — and there was some competition — was the announcement that WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley would return to Raw to unveil WWE’s newest championship. Speculation immediately began about what the former Raw General Manager could have in store for WWE, but hints are scarce.
Uso Rules
The Usos are in the catbird seat right about now. Not only do they have the advantage as they weigh a challenge from The Revival, but a non-title victory over Daniel Bryan & Rowan on the WWE Money in the Bank Kickoff has SmackDown Tag Team Championship implications as well, via the Wild Card Rule. The world is Jimmy & Jey’s oyster, and they have their pick of grudges to pursue: Personal vendetta or, perhaps, championship gold. What’s it gonna be?
Becky One Belt
Becky Lynch survived a tough challenge from Lacey Evans to retain her Raw Women’s Championship at WWE Money in the Bank, but The Lady of WWE made sure Lynch was less fortunate against Charlotte Flair. Evans attacked Lynch with the Woman’s Right in the middle of the Irishwoman’s second title defense, allowing The Queen to relieve her of the SmackDown Women’s Championship. With one title left to her name, Becky returns to Raw somewhat diminished, but no less motivated. The Man threw hands with Lacey immediately following the ambush, and while Charlotte’s own rivalry with Bayley (who cashed in on The Queen moments later to win the blue jewel) is just beginning, it seems Becky vs. Lacey is about to start a furious second act.
Tune in to Raw tonight at 8/7 C on USA Network to witness the fallout from WWE Money in the Bank!

It’d make sense if Lesnar took MITB to guarantee his rematch (as rematch clauses are no more) against Seth for the Universal Championship.
Hoping he cashes in to face Rollins at Super Showdown. Loses and we go back to Rollins defending against full-time superstars.

Loses and we go back to Rollins defending against full-time superstars. I mean, they could’ve just announced the match like they basically have done for the other Saudi shows. They didn’t need to waste the briefcase on him to make that happen

Last night was a MESS. Just a damn mess. Even Styles vs Rollins couldn't save the show. Maybe a 4 out of 10 and that's not even a joke/reference. The talent worked hard, but damn the matches felt lackluster. I can kind of understand the booking behind Becky losing the SD women's title. And god knows this new title is going to be a waste of metal and faux leather. And WATCH IT BE ING SILVER.
