Big Match Set For Monday’s WWE Raw

Big Match Set For Monday’s WWE Raw

WWE has confirmed a big match for the August 31 episode of Raw which could cap off a program that has lasted several months.

The confirmed match will be a one-on-one encounter between Seth Rollins and Rey Mysterio. This will come after tomorrow’s Payback event that will see Mysterio team with son Dominik against Rollins and his disciple Murphy.

WWE’s preview for the tag match at Payback is as follows:

Though they were robbed of a chance to beat Seth Rollins & Murphy, Dominik & Rey Mysterio will get another opportunity to topple their foes at WWE Payback.

After months of attacks and ridicule against his father and his family’s name, Dominik finally stepped into the ring against Rollins at SummerSlam. Dominik not only made his father proud, but he earned the respect of the WWE Universe in one of the most impressive in-ring debuts in recent memory. But he came up short in a valiant effort against the four-time World Champion.

The Mysterios were primed to make the most of their matchup against The Monday Night Messiah and his disciple this past Monday night, and Dominik again impressed, showcasing a spectacular tornado DDT and springboard plancha among other maneuvers, as well as teaming up with his father for a double-619 on Murphy.

With Dominik poised to hit a top-rope frog splash that may have put Murphy away, the ring was seized by RETRIBUTION for an all-out mugging of the Mysterios. Meanwhile, Rollins and Murphy high-tailed it away from ringside to safely watch from a distance with a grin as their adversaries were left lying.

Now with a second chance to score a victory in this ultra-personal rivalry, can the father-son duo conquer their foes? Or will Rollins and Murphy prove they have the Mysterios’ number?
