A Sixteen-Man Tournament, with the Final Two facing off at Vengeance for the Undisputed Championship. The first match next week will be the return of Carlito vs. Vince McMahon. The second will be Eugene vs. Triple H. More matches will be announced later. Every match will have a special stipulation." Stephanie said.

Chapter 19 Preview: from week on Raw, Eugene defeated Triple H in a grudge match. After the match, General Manager Stephanie McMahon stripped Vince McMahon of his Undisputed Championship and named a Championship Tournament to start next week on Raw.
The matches are as follows:
1. Eugene vs. Triple H. These two men faced off last week, with Eugene coming out on top after injuring Triple H's shoulder. What will happen this week?
2. Vince McMahon vs. Carlito. Carlito returns on Raw, after an absence. Carlito was chokeslammed from a ladder through four tables and tombstoned from that very same ladder by the Undertaker. Who knows what condition Carlito is in. Whatever the case is, Vince will have his hands full.
3. Kane vs. Chris Masters. Last week on Raw, The Undertaker played mind games with Kane. Kane seemed spooked. Does Masters have an unfair advantage over the Big Red Machine, with the Undertaker's mind games on his side? Or can Kane put Undertaker out of his mind and defeat the Masterpiece?
4. Shawn Michaels vs. Marty Jannety. These two will finally meet. Marty screwed HBK out of the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 22. HBK will finally get his revenge, but what is the stipulation?
5. Shane McMahon vs. Edge. These two have never met. With both of these dare-devils anything can happen.
6. Big Show vs. Mark Henry. These two behemoths will clash on Raw. The results could be catastrophic. Both men will give it their all to fall the other.
7. Randy Orton vs. John Cena. With Saturday Night's Main Event on his mind, can Orton focus on the Doctor of Thuganomics?
8. Over the Top Battle Royal. Other superstars will have a chance. With such men as Lashley, Finlay, Batista and the Boogeyman in there, who will come out the winner?
Also, Torrie Wilson takes on Candice Michelle and Ashley and Trish take on Mickie James and Victoria.
Last week on Raw, we found out that Saturday Night's Main Event is coming back. We also learned that we haven't heard the last from the Undertaker. Taker played with the minds of both Randy Orton and Kane. Paul Bearer spooked both men and announced that at SNME, The Undertaker returns to face Kane and Orton in a handicap Hell in the Cell match.
The Tournament and much, much more LIVE next week on Raw, just two weeks away from Vengeance.
