WWE will occupy the Barclays Center in Brooklyn for the third consecutive night, this time to present the August 24, 2015 episode of Monday Night Raw that will feature all the fallout from last night's SummerSlam, specifically the main event between Brock Lesnar and Undertaker. Without further ado, let's get to our full preview.

Lesnar and Undertaker went to war, but the battle ended in a bizarre finish in which Undertaker tapped out to the Kimura Lock, only the referee didn't see it because he was focused on Brock's shoulders that were down on the mat. The timekeeper, who apparently did see it, rang the bell. In the ensuing confusion, Taker delivered yet another low blow to the Beast Incarnate and locked on Hell's Gate. Lesnar, defiant to the last, gestured to the Deadman with his middle finger and collapsed, which gave Taker the win. Paul Heyman flew into a rage and declared his client as the true winner via tap out.

So what will happen tonight? Undertaker needs to address his unclean win last night. We know that the legend would do anything it took to avenge his WrestleMania 30 loss to Brock, and he proved that at SummerSlam by taking the win in such a fashion. What will Undertaker have to say for himself tonight? Paul Heyman will undoubtedly still be irate, which means we should expect plenty more screaming and shouting and veins about to pop out of his head. If Lesnar is in the building, he might just F5 the poor timekeeper for good measure.

In the other big match of the night, Seth Rollins defeated John Cena to become the first WWE World Heavyweight Champion and WWE United States Champion thanks to help from an unlikely ally in Jon Stewart. The former Daily Show host hit Cena in the stomach with a steel chair while the referee's back was turned, which allowed Rollins to Pedigree his opponent on the chair to get the win.

It's unclear if this was just a one-time shocking moment, or if Stewart will be involved in this story for the foreseeable future. If it's the former, then expect Rollins to open the show tonight with a 20-minute promo in the style of Triple H, in which he brags about how he vanquished Cena last night, possibly with a brief nod to Stewart's assist. If it's the latter, then we need to hear from the WWE fan as to why he decided to attack the 15-time champion and cost him the match. Either way, expect Cena to be filled with passion as he demands a rematch.

Elsewhere, Stephen Amell and Neville defeated Stardust and Cosmic King Barrett. The Arrow star teased that he is not finished with WWE just yet, so could we see him appear on Raw tonight? Or did his victory over Stardust finally snap the character out of his daze?

The New Day are WWE Tag Team Champions yet again after Kofi Kingston and Big E stole a win with some opportune offense. The celebration last night was wonderful, so let's see what the champions have in store for us tonight. And will The Prime Time Players get a chance to win back the belts?

Team PCB emerged victorious in the three-team women's match after Becky Lynch scored the pin on Brie Bella. Commentary finally mentioned Nikki Bella's Divas Championship reign last night as she is about to break AJ Lee's record for consecutive days with the belt. Does this mean Bex will get a shot at Nikki's title?

Ryback remains Intercontinental Champion after he took advantage of Big Show's KO Punch on The Miz. The giant will likely cry tonight that he deserves to be champion, and The Big Guy will likely respond by Shell Shocking him again.

As always, check back with MStars immediately after the show for a full recap of all the action. But for now, let us know your guesses and predictions for tonight's episode of Monday Night Raw in the comments section.
