WWE Has A Lot In Store For Next Week’s Monday Night Raw

It’s a busy one. With the last Monday Night Raw of 2018 in the books, it’s time to move on to the new year. That typically means a big show to kick things off, with a title match, a big return or something else that you don’t usually get. WWE likes to get things going well and the fact that it’s going up against the College Football Playoff title game might help things a bit. So what’s on tap?

This week on Monday Night Raw, a host of announcements were made for next week’s show. These include appearances by Brock Lesnar and John Cena, the return of Braun Strowman, and a Tag Team Title match with the Revival challenging Chad Gable and Bobby Roode. Strowman has been out of action with a shoulder injury and Lesnar hasn’t appeared on Monday Night Raw since November. This will be Cena’s first appearance on the show since April.

He’s back. Check out Strowman’s impressive 2018:

Opinion: Oh yeah I’d think they know they need to pick things up. The audience for next week’s show is going to be down again, but at least they have something there to offer as an alternative. There’s enough stuff on the upcoming Monday Night Raw to peel off a few viewers and that’s more than they can say in recent weeks. Hopefully things go well as we’re entering an important time.
