Great Balls of Fire preview

Read on for my ideas on booking tonight's Raw-brand Network special event.

-- Kickoff:
- Neville vs. Tozawa:
Titus helps his client win and we get an angle with the champion reluctant to have won in a dirty fashion. As talented as everyone on 205 Live is, it can be really tiring to watch the same people do the same things. It could use some livening up.

-- GBOF: 
- Cesaro/Sheamus vs. Hardys:
Sheamus and Cesaro. No need to cut off their momentum for a team that's going to be over no matter what. Hardys/Revival and Sheamus/Cesaro vs. Slater/Rhyno next. I'd turn The Club face either at Summerslam or the Raw after because OMG they're really stale as heels.


- Miz vs. Ambrose:
Miz with the help of his buddies. Dean digs down deep to show he can still be hardcore instead of the goof he's become.

- Enzo vs. Cass:
Cass wins, but Enzo "won't stay down," showing up and taunting Cass on Raw until he gets a rematch at Summerslam. Use Enzo as the goofy babyface so Dean doesn't have to be.

- Alexa vs. Sasha:
Nia interrupts Sasha's pre-match interview and the two are kept apart. Nia makes her presence known in the match, laying out Sasha. Alexa gets out of dodge before she's next. Summerslam is a four-way among Alexa, Sasha, Nia, and Bayley.

- Seth vs. Bray:
Seth wins. Angle books Seth vs. Finn in a rematch at Summerslam to determine the next challenger to the winner at Summerslam.

- Roman vs. Braun:
Braun wins an insane battle and sets his sights on the Universal Title. We get a triple threat with the winner of...

- Brock vs. Joe: 
Part of the audience is going to complain about this one no matter what, unfortunately. I think they should run with Braun as the top heel on the brand. So, a hellacious back-and-forth battle ends with Brock winning but Joe making him earn it. I wouldn't mind Heyman doing something to protect his client if they really want to protect Joe. The night ends with Brock nodding at his challenger at the end of a staredown in a show of respect. Bray vs. Joe next.

More wrestling coming up.
