Official Monday Night Raw Preview – April 30, 2018

There’s one more to go. This has been a very busy month for the WWE. Between WrestleMania 34, the Monday Night Raw/SmackDown Live after WrestleMania, the Superstar Shakeup, two international tours including the Greatest Royal Rumble and Backlash, it’s been a hectic time. There’s a lot to get through before Sunday’s pay per view though and WWE has you covered with what matters most.

WWE.com has released its official preview for this week’s Monday Night Raw. The show will focus on the fallout from the Greatest Royal Rumble while also looking at the build up for this Sunday’s Backlash 2018 pay per view. Brock Lesnar is still the Universal Champion and Braun Strowman has won the Greatest Royal Rumble. At the moment, Lesnar doesn’t have a next challenger for the Universal Title. Here are the stories listed in the preview for tonight’s show:

Opinion: If nothing else, I’m glad this week is the final show before Backlash as I could go for a show without anything to build towards for a while. The rapid fire nature of April has been a grind and it would be very nice to have a week of downtime for a change. Monday Night Raw (and SmackDown Live) for that matter are a lot to take in every week and having the stakes be so high week in and week out is a bit much.
