WWE RAW Preview (07/15/24): Rhea Ripley breaks silence, Drew McIntyre returns, Zayn defends IC title

Rhea Ripley has seen enough and she’s not standing on the sidelines anymore. Mami is back and in full effect as of last week’s WWE RAW, when she broke up the made-for-Netflix moment in the ring between her boy toy “Dirty” Dom Mysterio and her nemesis, Liv Morgan.

For the first time since relinquishing her WWE Women’s World Championship due to the shoulder injury caused by a backstage attack from Morgan, Ripley will speak this week.

And she has plenty to say during the opening act of her “Brutality Tour”.

She, Morgan and The Judgment Day won’t be the only headlines waiting for you this coming Monday — as Priest must answer to Ripley as well as face confrontation with Gunther — but business is also picking up for Sami Zayn as of late.

Having taken the WWE Intercontinental Championship off of Gunther at Wrestlemania 40 in April, he’s now more than three months into his reign, but most of it was tied to a feud with Chad Gable that’s now been shelved for a program with rookie sensation Bron Breakker.

Zayn defeated Breakker at Money in the Bank to retain the title on July 6, but was roundly cut in two by the rookie two days later on RAW, setting the stage for a possible rematch at Summerslam on Aug. 3 in Cleveland.

But, first, Zayn will defend his title on Monday against Ilja Dragunov, per RAW general manager Adam Pearce — as both should keep their eyes peeled for Breakker, considering he wants to take the title off of Zayn and Bron’s consistent warring with Dragunov since both were called up to the Red Brand.

And then there’s Drew McIntyre, who was suspended indefinitely by Pearce after serving up a crisp elbow the the GM’s teeth following the interference and beatdown at the hands of CM Punk in Toronto.

Punk appeared last week to ask Pearce to rescind the suspension to allow them both a chance to fight it out officially (Summerslam?), and Pearce agreed to meet with McIntyre on the upcoming episode of RAW, though the stipulation was for Punk to go on hiatus while things get worked out with McIntyre.

Punk agreed … but will he honor it??

It’s almost time to find out, folks.
