 WWE Raw preview, Sept. 9, 2019: “Stone Cold” Steve Austin to moderate Universal Title contract signing in historic Madison Square Garden
Six nights before WWE Clash of Champions, WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin will preside over a contract signing for the Universal Title Match between Raw Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman. Can The Texas Rattlesnake control the chaos as the red brand takes over iconic Madison Square Garden. Also on Raw, King of the Ring tournament semifinal action begins as Ricochet, Samoa Joe and Baron Corbin collide in a Triple Threat Match, Rey Mysterio returns to in-ring competition and much more!
“Stone Cold” Steve Austin to moderate Universal Championship contract signing between Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman
One week after the Universal Title contract signing between Raw Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman for WWE Clash of Champions ended in chaos thanks to The O.C., WWE Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin returns to his old stomping grounds, Madison Square Garden, to preside over this anticipated contract signing … and raise some hell if he needs to.
After United States Champion AJ Styles, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson spoiled Rollins and Strowman’s contract signing, Austin took to Twitter, announcing that he would be making sure the contract signing goes down like it’s supposed to, and that’s the bottom line.
Remembering that Rollins received Austin’s seal of approval on Raw last month, Strowman seems wary of the WWE Hall of Famer’s return, stating plainly that if Austin steps out of line with The Monster Among Men, he’ll get those hands. However, just about anyone who has crossed The Texas Rattlesnake over the past 20-plus years has gotten a Stunner for their trouble, no matter their size.
Raw King of the Ring Semifinal Match becomes a Triple Threat
Anything can happen in WWE, and if you’re Baron Corbin, the surprises aren’t always pleasant.
After Ricochet and Samoa Joe’s King of the Ring quarterfinal bout ended in a rarely seen double pinfall, WWE officials determined that both Superstars would advance to the semifinal round on Raw’s side of the bracket. As such, Corbin – who defeated an injured Cedric Alexander in his own quarterfinal match – will meet WWE’s resident superhero and The Samoan Shark in a Triple Threat Match tonight on Raw. The winner of that semifinal match will go on to face a Superstar from SmackDown LIVE in the final match of the 2019 King of the Ring tournament.
Which of these three intensely competitive Superstars will advance?
The battle of WWE’s Four Horsewomen
After SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley helped Sasha Banks obliterate Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair in separate attacks on Raw and SmackDown LIVE this past week, The Man and The Queen will form an unexpected alliance against the brutal best friends in a monumental tag team match involving all of WWE’s Four Horsewomen.
With Lynch poised to defend her title against The Boss and Flair challenging Bayley for her championship next Sunday at WWE Clash of Champions, who will gain key momentum?
Rey Mysterio returns to action against Gran Metalik
Three weeks after his son Dominick pulled him from the brink of retirement, Rey Mysterio will compete on Monday Night Raw, taking on fellow luchador Gran Metalik of Lucha House Party in one-on-one combat.
With Dominick no doubt watching closely, how will The Ultimate Underdog fare against the high-flying Metalik as the masked warriors square off in legendary Madison Square Garden?
Cedric Alexander looks for payback against AJ Styles
A backstage attack by The O.C. hindered Cedric Alexander’s chances of advancing in the King of the Ring tournament on Raw, and now this astoundingly athletic Superstar will have a chance at retribution against United States Champion AJ Styles when he battles The Phenomenal One tonight.
With his King of the Ring dreams tarnished by Styles and his nefarious allies Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson, Alexander will no doubt hold nothing back against the U.S. Champion. Will Alexander settle the score? |

I'll be absent for the start, should be back for the second half. Probably means all the "GOOD SH*T" will be happening late.
Hope to see Styles hit a forearm on Austin during the Team BRAUN IT DOWN contract signing but expecting Gallows and Anderson to eat a couple STONE Cold Stunners instead...

Mysterio vs. Metalik is interesting to say the least

Ricochet is obviously winning, no point in watching that match

Yay, WWE back on live TV from the historic Madison Square Garden! And to think it only took them eight years to do so!  . Anyway, can't wait for this, and Smackdown tomorrow. It's gonna be weird with all the major redesigning they did to the interior of the arenas seating, and the loss of the famous "tunnel" entrance way in the middle... |

Ugh. 1 of 2 thing awill happen tonight.
AJ takes a stunner and the Fiend comes out bc the latter has been hinting it.
Or
AJ takes a stunner and the fiend doesn't come out bc the latter has been hinting it.
I'll only be happy with the former. The latter does nothing except it gives AJ a moment like Dean Ambrose had with Roberts.

He just seems to have an extreme amount of confidence, much like Punk did, who’s someone that asked Austin to get physical in a dark match/segment back in the day |

But I wonder too about The Undertaker tomorrow night on Smackdown. Unless they just run the gauntlet now and have the Fiend attack two big legends in a row. lol Or maybe they actually have Undertaker be the one to 'pick a fight!' with Alistair tomorrow. |

Nah, Sami Zayn called out the Undertaker so he's probably just gonna eat a tombstone tomorrow and "This is my yard, rest in peace, hundred boys holes and souls, yada yada" crowd goes insane and sent home happy |

MSG isn’t MSG anymore. As a fan, this isn’t a special occasion.

For just a moment, a fleeting moment, I was brought back to 1998. Austin’s music breaking in the show was awesome.
