Renee Young makes her WWE Raw commentary debut this week, and the B-Team puts the Tag Team Championships on the line in a triple threat match. Follow along with our live review!

Previously on WWE Raw, tragedy struck when The B-Team’s amazing alt-rock theme was replaced with a pep band fluff piece. Oh, and Ronda Rousey made her Raw in-ring debut, and almost ripped the arms off of Alicia Fox.

This week on Raw, we’re just six days away from SummerSlam. It’s time for WWE to finish convincing us that, even though the Raw brand is giving us nothing but rematches, it’s still a show we have to see. And that means, uh, the biggest match of the night will be a triple threat Tag Team Championship match featuring six guys not on the SummerSlam card!

Yes, Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel will defend the Raw Tag Team Titles against both The Revival and the Deleters of Worlds, Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt. The B-Team has managed to stay on the winning side of things since reinventing themselves after The Miz went to SmackDown Live in the Superstar Shake-Up. Can they defy the odds yet again?

While the action unfolds all night, there will be a new voice in the broadcast booth. Renee Young will fill in for Jonathan Coachman this week, making this week the first time a woman has sat in for commentary for an entire episode of Raw. Will Renee make a case to be on the broadcast more frequently? (Yes, yes she will.)

There’s also much more on tap regarding this weekend’s SummerSlam card. Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler will make their Intercontinental Championship match official with a contract signing — no way that will go south. Paul Heyman kept some things to himself during a terrific sit-down interview — will we find out what he held back? And can Ronda Rousey get her hands on Alexa Bliss before their title match in Brooklyn?
