WWE Raw preview, March 19, 2018: The Ultimate Deletion is upon us

The Great War between “Woken” Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt has escalated to The Ultimate Deletion,
a battle that will transpire at The Hardy Compound this Monday night on Raw. Can The Woken One
finally delete The Eater of Worlds, once and for all? Also on Raw, Universal Champion Brock
Lesnar is slated to return at last, and Asuka battles Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss!

Brock Lesnar finally emerges

Who will claim victory in The Ultimate Deletion?

Will Braun Strowman take on The Bar at WrestleMania?

Asuka puts her streak on the line against Alexa Bliss

Who will claim victory in The Ultimate Deletion?

It all comes down to this: The Great War hits home for “Woken” Matt Hardy, as he takes on Bray
Wyatt in The Ultimate Deletion at The Hardy Compound.
This contest promises to challenge everything we know about combat, both physically and psychologically,
as The Woken One’s own family — including Queen Rebecca, King Maxel, Lord Wolfgang, Senor Benjamin and
his drone, Vanguard 1 — bears witness to the mind-bending confrontation.
Will Hardy finally delete The Eater of Worlds, or will Wyatt bring darkness to The Hardy Compound?
Whatever happens, this will be a battle unlike anything in WWE history.

Brock Lesnar finally emerges

Per Mr. McMahon, Universal Champion Brock Lesnar will finally appear on Monday Night Raw, three weeks
before he defends his title against the recently suspended Roman Reigns at WrestleMania.
Now that The Chairman has punished The Big Dog for his inflammatory criticism of The Beast Incarnate
and Mr. McMahon himself, it remains to be seen just how Reigns will react to Lesnar’s appearance on
Raw — or if he will even be reinstated before Monday night.

Asuka puts her streak on the line against Alexa Bliss

Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss will have Mickie James in her corner when she takes on Asuka Monday
night on Raw, but Little Miss Bliss surely won’t have Nia Jax by her side after she unwittingly
insulted The Irresistible Force in front of the entire WWE Universe this past Monday night.
As Alexa looks to snap The Empress of Tomorrow’s streak, how will the seething Jax factor into the situation?

Will Braun Strowman take on The Bar at WrestleMania?

Even though he doesn’t have a tag team partner, Braun Strowman shockingly won the Tag Team Battle Royal
this past Monday night, meaning that he technically earned the right to challenge Cesaro & Sheamus for
the Raw Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania 34 in New Orleans. However, given the fact that The Monster
Among Men is a solo Superstar, and since he originally wasn’t scheduled to compete in the over-the-top-rope
bout, the victory comes with no small amount of controversy.
Raw General Manager Kurt Angle has a lot on his plate going into this year’s Show of Shows — including his
Mixed Tag Team Match with Ronda Rousey against Triple H and Stephanie McMahon — but he’ll need to sort out
Strowman’s Road to WrestleMania sooner than later. Will Angle rule in favor of The Monster Among Men, or
will all of Team Red suffer the consequences if Strowman doesn’t get his way?
