The WWE Monday Night Raw on May 25 went down at the Schottenstein Center in Columbus, Ohio. The company usually brings a big show to Ohio’s capital city, and tonight was no different.

Brock Lesnar shocked the WWE Universe when he retired at WrestleMania. He surprised them even more when he returned last week on RAW to take out Oba Femi, setting up a Clash in Italy encounter.

During WWE RAW this week, Paul Heyman kicked off the show with a short in-ring promo. Then he played a video of Brock Lesnar discussing what happened with him and Oba Femi. Lesnar said he’s taken ass kickings in the past, and WrestleMania gave him one so badly that he thought he was done.

Then Brock Lesnar amped up his promo as he closed things out. He may be humbled and “retired”– in his own words. That being said, Lesnar made a promise to stop Oba Femi at Clash in Italy.

“You’re gonna get your ass kicked by a humbled, retired beast. Brock Lesnar will conquer Oba Femi. I am gonna rule over Oba Femi.”

Oba Femi came out, and he promised that he will aim to kill Brock Lesnat at Clash in Italy. The Ruler seemed to mean business, and Paul Heyman had serious intimidation in his eyes.

We will have to see what happens at Clash in Italy. Brock Lesnar versus Oba Femi is a match that a lot of fans have been waiting for, especially part two. Only time will tell if fans see a third encounter, but we need to get this Saturday’s event taken care of.

WWE “Clash in Italy” takes place on Sunday, May 31. The Inalpi Arena in Turin, Italy, will house another Brock Lesnar versus Oba Femi match, and it’s anyone’s guess how it will turn out.

What’s your take on how WWE RAW turned out this week? Did you think the show was a good go-home for the Clash in Italy premium live event? Let us know what you think in the comments section!
