– Cedric Alexander vs. Drew Gulak is now official for next week’s RAW with the winner challenging WWE Cruiserweight Champion Enzo Amore the following week.
As noted, Gulak was supposed to face Rich Swann on tonight’s RAW to determine Enzo’s next challenger but Swann was suspended indefinitely this weekend following a domestic violence arrest after an incident with his wife. Tonight’s RAW saw Cedric win a “Second Chance” match over Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari and Mustafa Ali. Below are a few post-match tweets on Cedric:

– Kane and Strowman battled in and out of the ring in the RAW main event, and ended up getting each other counted out. The fight did not stop there, however, as both men brought weapons into the ring and hit each other with chairs, and Strowman ended up fight with a big powerslam through a table.
Braun Strowman was standing tall at the end of WWE RAW, but it still remains to be seen if he is Brock Lesnar’s next challenger due to a double countout decision.
Brock Lesnar is confirmed to appear on next week’s show, but no decision regarding the main event has been made at this time.
