WWE Raw preview, Sept. 4, 2017:

Big Show and Braun Strowman to clash inside a steel cage
Live on Raw, Big Show and Braun Strowman will battle in a Steel Cage Match. Which of these titans will triumph
inside the unforgiving structure? Also on Raw, Jeff Hardy challenges The Miz for the Intercontinental Championship.

Big Show to battle Braun Strowman in a Steel Cage Match

Universal Champion Brock Lesnar might want to take Braun Strowman to Suplex City at WWE No Mercy on Sept. 24, but first,
as first reported by Cathy Kelley in a WWE.com Exclusive video, The Monster Among Men will climb into a steel cage with Big
Show, live on Raw.
When Strowman and the giant last collided one-on-one, the juggernauts caused the ring to collapse under their combined weight
after a massive superplex by The Gift of Destruction. We can only imagine what kind of havoc they will unleash on each other
— and their surroundings — when they enter the unforgiving steel.
One can only hope that the structure is reinforced for what should be a brutal confrontation. Can Big Show end Strowman’s
seemingly unstoppable rampage, or will The Monster Among Men thrive in his first ever Steel Cage Match and send a grisly
message to The Beast Incarnate, who will no doubt be paying close attention to the carnage?

Will Jeff Hardy become a five-time Intercontinental Champion on Raw?

By tossing Jason Jordan over the top rope in the final moments of last week’s 15-Man Battle Royal, Jeff Hardy punched
his ticket to an Intercontinental Championship showdown against The Miz on Raw, a match that could propel The Charismatic
Enigma to his fifth reign with the illustrious title.
Even though The A-Lister has The Miztourage on his side, Jeff’s brother Matt will surely help neutralize Miz’s conniving
co-stars outside the ring, perhaps making this match more of a fair fight than the current titleholder is used to these days.
And yet, Miz did score the winning pinfall when The Hardy Boyz teamed with Jason Jordan against The A-Lister and his
Miztourage during the SummerSlam Kickoff, which was the last time The Awesome One stood across the ring from his new
challenger. Will history repeat itself on Raw, or will The Charismatic Enigma use his veteran savvy to claim the gold?

Can we expect more fireworks between John Cena and Roman Reigns?

Well, that escalated quickly. John Cena and Roman Reigns met in the center of the ring this past Monday night to
make their WWE No Mercy match official, and the resulting microphone mayhem that transpired between the larger-than-life
Superstars has us clamoring for their forthcoming dream match on Sunday, Sept. 24.
The Cenation Leader and The Big Dog were somewhat civil when they triumphantly teamed up against Luke Gallows & Karl
Anderson moments after their verbal joust, but something tells us the next time these two rivals see each other,
they’ll trade more than just insults.

Nia Jax makes major Raw Women’s Championship statement

Alexa Bliss is the new Raw Women’s Champion, but she definitely didn’t look like a winner when this past Monday’s
broadcast drew to a close. As Nia Jax hoisted the triumphant “Goddess” onto her shoulder after her victory over Sasha
Banks, Alexa’s imposing would-be ally sent the new titleholder crashing to the canvas, seizing the moment to hold Bliss’
new title above her own head.
How will Alexa deal with Nia on Raw? Moreover, how will The Boss bounce back after once again failing to retain the Raw
Women’s Championship?

What’s next for Emma?

Well, we all might have to #GiveEmmaAChance after what transpired Monday night, when the bitter Superstar earned a
surprise victory over decorated veteran Mickie James. This marks Emma’s first one-on-one victory since May of last year,
and her triumph could be a new beginning for the former fan-favorite. Will Emma gain more momentum this week?
