WWE Raw comes from Madison Square Garden tonight with several title matches and a number of big names expected to appear. Backstage reports say one rising star will return after time away for surgery.
Roxanne Perez set to return
Reports say Roxanne Perez, a member of The Judgment Day, is expected to be on Raw tonight at Madison Square Garden. Perez has been out of action for about two months while she had a benign cyst removed from her back. She was recently assigned to the Raw roster, and the plan is for her to make her return on this show.
Women’s division and tag title picture
Several top women are also expected on the red brand. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss are scheduled to appear on Raw tonight. In recent weeks they have been involved in the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship scene and have started feuds with teams from both Raw and SmackDown.
On tonight’s show, Nia Jax and Lash Legend will defend the Women’s Tag Team Championships against Bayley and Lyra Valkyria. Flair and Bliss could appear because of their recent involvement in the tag title picture.
Other announced matches
More matches are already set for the show. The Usos will defend the WWE World Tag Team Championships against The Vision in a Street Fight. Penta will challenge Kofi Kingston for the Intercontinental Championship. IYO SKY is scheduled to face Raquel Rodriguez.
Big names in attendance
Two of the company’s biggest stars, Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar, are expected to be in attendance at Madison Square Garden. Their presence is part of the build toward their respective matches at WrestleMania 42.
Tonight’s Raw looks focused on title matches and returns. Fans at Madison Square Garden can expect high stakes matches and major story beats as WWE moves toward its next big show.
