Randy Orton vs. Omos, Drew McIntyre vs. Veer & Shanky Announced For 8/16 WWE RAW, Updated Card
Two major matches for the August 16 episode of WWE RAW, which will be the go-home show for SummerSlam.
On Monday night, Randy Orton will face Omos one week after “The Viper” defeated the big man’s tag team partner, AJ Styles. Orton, alongside Riddle, has been feuding with the duo for some time now, but “The Apex Predator” shockingly dropped “The Original Bro” with RKO last week. As a result, their status as a team is unclear, so Styles and Omos will aim to capitalize on this potential numbers advantage.

Speaking of being outnumbered, Drew McIntyre will compete in a handicap match on Monday. He’ll face Veer and Shanky on RAW, less than one week before he clashes with their ally, Jinder Mahal at WWE SummerSlam.
