Tonight on the With Spandex WWE Raw open discussion thread:
Baron Corbin gets to select the special guest official for his Universal Championship Match on Sunday against Seth Rollins at WWE Stomping Grounds, and he’ll reveal that decision live on Raw. What will he announce on Raw in Los Angeles, six nights before that anticipated title bout against The Beastslayer? Plus, Braun Strowman, Ricochet, The Miz, Bobby Lashley and Cesaro clash in a Fatal 5-Way Match for the right to challenge Samoa Joe for the United States Championship at WWE Stomping Grounds and Daniel Bryan joins the red brand for the night as a Wild Card! (via WWE.com)
Our five-point preview:
1. How great would it be if Baron Corbin announced someone like Mike Chioda as the special guest referee, and was just like, “I want to make sure it gets called down the middle?”
2. Daniel Bryan is here, and if the way Smackdown’s been going is any indication, he and Rowan will use his time on Raw to defend the Smackdown Tag Team Championship against a team from Smackdown.
3. The fatal 5-way could be fun, but dear WWE: you announced the match, so you don’t have to spend 20 minutes at the top of the show setting up the match.
4. Stomping Grounds is this weekend, can you believe it?
5. R-Truth got trapped in a crate last week. Is he dead? Will Jinder Mahal have to schoolboy a corpse?
