8-Man Tag Team Match Set For Monday’s RAW
February 7, 2020Eight men will wage war this Monday.
Tonight WWE announced that this Monday on RAW from Ontario, California there will be a huge eight-man tag team match taking place.
On Monday’s RAW, we will see the RAW Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Murphy, along with AOP take on the team of Kevin Owens, Samoa Joe, and The Viking Raiders Erik and Ivar. This is a good sign for Joe as it was reported that he may have suffered a concussion a few weeks back. With him being announced for this match, that has to make you assume he has been cleared to compete.
As first reported by Sports Illustrated, an epic Eight-Man Tag Team Match will pit Raw Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Murphy with AOP against Kevin Owens, Samoa Joe & The Viking Raiders.
Last week on Raw, Murphy & AOP took out KO & The Viking Raiders in a grueling six-man tag bout, thanks to a little help from Rollins. Despite his squad coming up short, KO received a standing ovation from the WWE Universe after eliminating Murphy and Akam and eventually being pinned by Rezar.
Tensions between the opposing groups carried over into last week’s main event – a Triple Threat war with major implications for Rollins. A Rollins victory against Bobby Lashley and Ricochet would have given him exactly what he has been thirsting for – a chance to challenge WWE Champion Brock Lesnar at WWE Super ShowDown.
Unsurprisingly, AOP & Murphy got involved in the match, but Owens and Erik evened the odds, and Ricochet scored a win to earn a chance at The Beast.
With the WWE Universe behind them, can Owens & Co. draw from that potent backing and parlay it into a win? Or, will the self-proclaimed Monday Night Messiah lead his squad to victory? Find out at 8/7 C on USA Network!
As first announced by @SInow, @WWERollins, @WWE_Murphy & #AOP are set to battle @FightOwensFight, @SamoaJoe & The #VikingRaiders THIS MONDAY on #Raw!https://t.co/B1O1E6yJkV
