Let&#8217;s dive right in to WWE Raw next week.<\/p>\n<h2>WWE Raw Card Next Week (5\/26\/25)<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Men&#8217;s MITB Qualifying Matches:\u00a0<\/strong>On this week&#8217;s Raw, WWE held two women&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/05\/19\/money-in-the-bank-2025-location-date-time-and-full-list-of-wrestlers-competing\/\" target=\"_self\">qualifying matches for Money in the Bank<\/a>. Next week, the attention turns to the men. WWE has yet to announce who will be competing in the matches but if next week is anything like this week, that means there will be two men&#8217;s matches. We&#8217;ll have to wait and see who will occupy those six spots and join Solo Sikoa of SmackDown, as the entrants in the ladder match.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rusev vs Akira Tozawa:\u00a0<\/strong>Ask and ye shall receive. After being tormented by Rusev for weeks and watching his tag team partner Otis be taken out at the hands of the Redeemer, Tozawa is ready for revenge. He asked Adam Pearce for a match and it was made official for next week. This is very much a David\/Goliath type of matchup as Rusev continues to show he&#8217;s here to save his fellow competitors by first making them hit rock bottom as he once did.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WWE Tag Team Championship &#8211; New Day (C) vs Creed Brothers vs War Raiders:\u00a0<\/strong>The War Raiders are finally getting their rematch. After New Day cheated to regain the tag team titles at WrestleMania 41, Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston have been ducking Erik and Ivar. It all came to a head two weeks ago though as New Day helped the Creeds emerge as number one contenders, believing they could beat them, only for the War Raiders to talk Pearce into adding them to the match. So it will be a triple threat for the titles, meaning New Day lose their championship advantage. But knowing Woods and Kingston, they are sure to have something up their sleeves for their opponents.<\/p>\n<p><strong><b>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><i>Header photo \u2013 WWE \u2013 Stay tuned to the\u00a0<\/i><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\"><em><u><i>Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/i><\/u><\/em><\/a><em><i> for more on the WWE Raw card for next week, Money in the Bank, and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
