The rematch is set.
WWE announced that Big E will defend his WWE Championship against Bobby Lashley on Monday's WWE Raw. The bout is set to open Raw.
The match came together at WWE Extreme Rules with Lashley throwing out the challenge after he was pinned in a six-man tag that pitted Lashley with AJ Styles & Omos against The New Day (Big E, Kofi Kingston, & Xavier Woods).
Big E had no problem accepting the challenge.
Big E defeated Lashley on the September 13 episode of WWE Raw, cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase to defeat Lashley after "The All Mighty" had just defeated Randy Orton.
