As the new WWE Champion, The Miz has has hands full.
This week on WWE RAW, he had to deal with an ultimatum from Bobby Lashley, a threat from Braun Strowman and a return from Shane McMahon.
“Shane O-Mac” came to the ring to sort out the complicated WWE Championship picture. He pointed out that Strowman never held the WWE Champion, so that’s why he was left out of WWE Elimination Chamber. Strowman said the situation sucks, and McMahon told him his pitch of getting a title match sucked. But McMahon told Strowman that if he could beat Lashley on RAW this week, he’d earn a spot in a Triple Threat Match for the title next week.
Based on the outcome of Monday’s main event, next week’s WWE Championship Match will either be a singles bout between Miz and Lashley or a Triple Threat cbetween Miz, Lashley and Strowman.
