The march toward SummerSlam continues when the WWE presents Monday Night RAW live this week from the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, Okla.
Ranking Brock Lesnar's Past SummerSlam Opponents
Superstars advertised for the flagship show this week include WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, Randy Orton, WWE United States Champion John Cena, Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, Kevin Owens, WWE Intercontinental Champion Ryback, Dolph Ziggler and Bray Wyatt.
It's worth noting that SummerSlam opponents Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker aren't advertised for the show.

The main storyline heading into this week appears to be between Rollins and Cena as the two respective title-holders had a verbal altercation on last week's show. The road seems to be heading toward a possible match between the two at SummerSlam, which could end up being title-for-title.
Another big feud that is sure to get some more airtime is between former Shield stablemates Reigns and Ambrose and The Wyatt Family.
The two duos have been at odds and there has been some speculation that a third Wyatt Family member will replace the injured Erick Rowan and that Sting will eventually return to help out the two babyfaces and set up a SummerSlam encounter.
The WWE is also teasing that the altercation between Cesaro and Owens, the former NXT Champion, will continue on this week's show.
It's also interesting to note that Ziggler is being advertised for this week's edition of RAW as he's been sidelined in storyline by a Rusev attack. If The Showoff does appear, it is likely he'll start to build toward a SummerSlam clash with the Bulgarian Brute.
Over in the tag team division, The Prime Time Players continue to take on all-comers, but it remains to be seen what team (or teams) they'll battle at The Biggest Party of The Summer.
Another Superstar to watch for is Ryback as the reigning Intercontinental Champion is advertised for the show despite canceling his scheduled match with Big Show and Miz last weekend at Battleground.
Over in the Divas division, things are heating up between Team Bella and the two other trios of Divas, which includes the triad of Naomi, Tamina and Sasha Banks as well as Paige, Charlotte and Becky Lynch.
Elsewhere, Randy Orton still has some unfinished business with Sheamus as the two continue to feud.
With SummerSlam just over three weeks away at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, the WWE may announce more matches for what should be a stacked event.
The WWE presents Monday Night RAW live this week from Oklahoma as the summer continues to heat up in the company.
