First off on RAW is going to be singles action as Umaga competes once again on RAW. Umaga is still undefeated in the WWE and going into RAW, must be the favourite to in his match once again.

Who will take the chance and whose hopes and dreams will fall at the wayside? Tune in this Monday night to find out what happens.

And in other action it’s going to be by far the best match to happen this year on RAW as the WWE Intercontinental Championship will be on the line on RAW. It’s going to be an ending of an extreme feud to say the least as Johnny Nitro battles the Champion, Jeff Hardy. Will Hardy be able to cement his place in legacy or will the cocky youngster Nitro prove he is champion material? Only one way to find out, watch the USA Network this Monday night.
