Tonight’s edition of Monday Night Raw is the last before the first PPV before “Payback.” What’s insane is it feels like Wrestlemania 32 just happened, but it’s been over three weeks since the grandest stage of them all.
The rest of the card will be set tonight and on SmackDown this week, but tonight is pivotal in setting the table for this Sunday’s PPV, which looks extremely good as now.
For tonight’s show, there will be at least five big matches to provide quality wrestling on tonight’s show before we head to “Payback” on Sunday.
Naturally, WWE wants both the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns and his challenger AJ Styles in action tonight. Reigns will face Alberto Del Rio, and Styles will have Sheamus.
As previously reported, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows will be featured in their in-ring debut against The Usos, and they’ll likely be involved with Styles in some way.
Elsewhere, Enzo Amore and Big Cass will face The Vaudevillains in the finals of the No. 1 Contenders tournament for the right to face The New Day at “Payback.”
To round out the rest of the night, Rusev will face Sami Zayn for the first time, and that will get the latter ready for Kevin Owens this Sunday.
Are you excited for Monday Night Raw tonight?
