(STINGER: WWE)

\\n\\n

Tonight\\u2019s Raw is hyping a rematch from last week...with some added intrigue. It\\u2019s Raw Women\\u2019s Champion Nikki A.S.H. vs. Charlotte Flair in a No Holds Barred Match. Nikki\\u2019s title is NOT on the line.

\\n\\n

Also tonight, Riddle vs. one-half of the Raw Tag Champs Omos...And Goldberg is set to return to Raw.

\\n\\n

We could get an update on the future of the WWE Women\\u2019s Tag Team Titles.

\\n\\n

One half of the champs, Natalya, revealed Friday she underwent surgery on the ankle she injured during a match on last Monday\\u2019s Raw.

\\n\\n

The big WWE news from over the weekend: The release of Bray Wyatt. He had been part of the WWE in one form or another since 2009 - his entire pro wrestling career.

\\n\\n

The main event of SummerSlam is set. Roman Reigns will defend the Universal Championship against John Cena.

\\n\\n

A contract signing for a match between Reigns and Finn Balor went sideways on Friday\\u2019s SmackDown. Balor was jumped by Baron Corbin before he could sign the contract. Cena then took it from Corbin and signed it...and that\\u2019s apparently good enough for the legal department.

\\n\\n

Sasha Banks returned to SmackDown on Friday night. She aligned with Bianca Belair just long enough to win a tag match against Carmella and Zelina Vega...and then, Banks attacked Belair.

\\n\\n

(STINGER: AEW)

Serena Deeb revealed over the weekend that a knee injury is keeping her out of action.

\\n\\n

\\n\\n

A new match announced for New Japan\\u2019s Resurgence show in Los Angeles. The Good Brothers vs. Jon Moxley and a mystery partner.

\\n\\n

It won\\u2019t be Shota Umino. New Japan announced Umino will not appear at Resurgence due to travel restrictions in the United Kingdom.

\\n\\n

The Good Brothers won the Tag Team Turbulence tournament on New Japan Strong on Friday.
