One week after <strong>Bobby Lashley<\/strong> defeated <strong>The Miz<\/strong> to become WWE Champion, he will have a celebration worthy of a CEO. Here&#8217;s what to look forward to on this week&#8217;s WWE Raw card.<\/p>\n<h2>UPDATE (4:31 p.m. EST): Bobby Lashley Defends the WWE Championship Against The Miz<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/wQeA9Z3.jpg?1\" alt=\"Bobby Lashley vs The Miz\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Bobby Lashley will defend the WWE Championship in his first week as champion in a rematch from last week against The Miz. Miz won the title after cashing in on Drew McIntyre at the Elimination Chamber PPV, which of course was set up by Lashley. The current champion dominated Miz last week after he tried to run away from the match. Tonight, he will look to regain the title that he tried to hide from &#8220;The CEO of The Hurt Business.&#8221; One would have to think Lashley has the edge again no matter what.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Bobby Lashley, The Hurt Business Celebrate His Major Win<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/WDueYss.jpg?1\" alt=\"Bobby Lashley WWE Raw\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Bobby Lashley won the WWE Championship for the first time in his career last week when he defeated The Miz in the main event. This week will be all about celebration as <strong>MVP<\/strong>, <strong>Shelton Benjamin<\/strong>, and <strong>Cedric Alexander<\/strong> celebrate his impressive accomplishment in a <strong>Hurt Business<\/strong> worthy way. As they celebrate all night long, who will be ready to step up to the champion at <strong><em>Fastlane<\/em><\/strong>, assuming that is where he makes his first defense.<\/p>\n<h2>Braun Strowman Demands an Apology from Shane McMahon<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/xk3V5IP.jpg?1\" alt=\"Braun Strowman Shane McMahon\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Monster Among Men&#8221; demands&#8230; an apology? That seems to be the case, as <strong>Braun Strowman<\/strong> will walk out to the ring tonight to demand an apology from <strong>Shane McMahon<\/strong>, who has continuously held him out of opportunities week after week. It&#8217;s clear these two are not going to get along any time soon and it very well could mean Strowman vs. McMahon somewhere down the road. Good luck to the latter on this one.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Not Announced but Expected<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&#8212; <strong>Asuka<\/strong> answers <strong>Charlotte Flair<\/strong>&#8216;s challenge for the Raw Women&#8217;s Championship.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; <strong>Rhea Ripley<\/strong> continues to be hyped up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; <strong>Bad Bunny<\/strong> and <strong>Damian Priest<\/strong> get stronger heading into <em>Fastlane<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; <strong>Riddle<\/strong> tries to bounce back from his loss to <strong>Mustafa Ali<\/strong> last week.<\/p>\n<p>[pickup_prop id=&#8221;3956&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>More from LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
