The road to WrestleMania 32 is winding down as the WWE makes one final stop for "Monday Night RAW" live from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
With just six nights until the biggest event of the year, there will be all hands on deck for this final edition of the flagship show.
Here are the key storylines and latest rumors for this week's "RAW."
1) The Game Continues
The WWE has gone all-out to try and get Roman Reigns over, and he's gotten the best of WWE World Heavyweight Champion Triple H over the last two weeks. "The Game" will likely finally get his vengeance this week.
It's expected that Reigns will win the belt this Sunday at AT&T Stadium in Texas, so it's likely that Triple H will be the one standing tall this week to stack the deck against the challenger.
2) Deadman Rising
The Undertaker and Shane McMahon are both expected to be at "RAW" this week after missing last week's show. "The Deadman" will surely react to Vince McMahon's announcement that if he loses inside Hell in a Cell against Shane-O Mac on Sunday, he will never compete at WrestleMania ever again.
3) The Beast vs. The Lunatic
Brock Lesnar is also expected to return to the WWE's flagship show this week to continue the buildup toward his feud with Dean Ambrose. There are rumors "The Beast" will feud with The Wyatt Family after WrestleMania, so it will be interesting to see what Bray Wyatt and his brood are up to on Monday.
4) Diva Divide
The WWE has been building toward a Total Divas vs. WWE Divas tag team match for WrestleMania. Emma and Summer Rae recently joined the team of Naomi, Tamina and Lana, while Brie Bella's group of Alicia Fox, Paige and Natalya is one short.
It's likely that a fifth Diva will emerge for the feud Monday to lead into the WrestleMania match. Nikki Bella is booked for "RAW" this week, according to Wrestlingheadlines.com, though it's doubtful she'll be ready to return to action this week.
Elsewhere in the division, Charlotte is preparing to defend her Divas Championship against Charlotte and Becky Lynch at WrestleMania, and Monday will be the final buildup to the match.
5) March To 'Mania
There are a lot of key midcard feuds to keep an eye on this week, including Kevin Owens defending the Interconinental Championship against six others in a Ladder Match. Zack Ryder stood tall last week, but one of the other stars will likely gain momentum this time around. The MIz addressed injury rumors:
No I'm not injured, yes I will win the #ICTitle @WrestleMania and YES, you're stupid if you don't know that I'm great at my job. #ImAnActor

Elsewhere, The New Day and League of Nations are headed toward a 4-on-3 handicap match, but there are some concerns over Alberto Del Rio's health, while Ryback and Kalisto are preparing for their United States Championship match.
This week will also feature the final buildup for the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal and the tag match pitting The Dudleyz against The Usos, both of which will be featured on the pre-show. It's the final stop before WrestleMania in what should be a notable "RAW" live from New York City.
