Tonight’s episode of WWE RAW takes place from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

Due to the fact that the WWE crew will be overseas in Japan next week for a live events tour, the company will tape next week’s episode of RAW after tonight’s show goes off the air.

While no matches have been announced for tonight’s RAW, NXT Season 2 rookie Alex Riley will be appearing tonight after winning a challenge on last week’s NXT episode.

We’ll likely get plenty of fallout from SummerSlam as well as some build towards WWE’s next pay-per-view event,  Night of Champions on September 19.

There’s a big 21-man battle royal being advertised locally as the dark match main event. The battle royal will feature the “Top 7 RAW Superstars,” the “Top 7 SmackDown Superstars” as well as the Nexus crew.  The SmackDown stars being advertised include Big Show, Jack Swagger, Kane and CM Punk.
