The WWE universe is less than a week away from the high-stakes intensity of SummerSlam, and tensions will reach a fever pitch during tonight's Monday Night Raw online live stream.

The Aug. 15 episode will air live from the American Bank Center in Corpus Christi, Texas at 8 p.m. ET. With the dog days of summer now in full swing, viewers can expect the WWE superstars to bring the sweltering temps into the area.

Brock Lesnar and Randy Orton are at loggerheads. The pair will face off during the August pay-per-view, and even though no belt is on the line, the Viper and the Beast Incarnate are pulling out all the stops. WWE promises that the competitors will stick to their respective series during this week's Raw and SmackDown, but you can expect Lesnar to ruffle a few feathers before tonight's competition comes to a close.

Russev also wants to get a jump on his SummerSlam opponent. The Bulgarian Brute will attempt to retain his WWE United States Championship against Roman Reigns this weekend, and, after the latter's served up a heaping plate of ignominy at Rusev's nuptials, Reigns should watch his back.

Meanwhile, Seth Rollins will press his luck as he attempts to conjure Finn Bálor's alter ego. The Irish menace has promised to break out the Demon King for his SummerSlam match against Rollins (at which time the pair will grapple for the WWE Universal Championship), but his unwitting opponent wants to get the party started a little bit early.
