From John Cena’s Return to Logan Paul’s Face-to-face: What to expect from this week’s Monday night RAW?

WWE have announced two big names for the forthcoming episode of Monday Night Raw

The latest episode of Monday Night Raw will emanate from TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. The WWE Universe is excited to witness the return of John Cena in his hometown and much more for the upcoming show. Along with the massive announcement of Cena’s return, the company has a lot more planned for the episode. And seemingly some of these inside plans have been made public recently.

The Twitter account of Xero News recently tweeted the backstage notes for the upcoming Raw event. This included plans like Austin Theory “waiting” for the 16-time world champion on his return. It is no surprise if Theory comes down to crashing John Cena’s homecoming to build up a match for WrestleMania. The report also included the already advertised face-to-face segment between Logan Paul and Seth Rollins.

In addition to the advertised segments, the backstage notes also had WrestleMania plans for the women’s division on Raw. While Bianca Belair will take on Carmella on the show, the plans mention a partner for the Fabulous. The notes read, “Carmella & Chelsea Green are due to team up going forward.”

Additionally, as the fans had already expected, the trio of Trish Stratus, Lita, and Becky Lynch will be building up their match with Damage CTRL on Raw. According to the report, the 6-woman tag for the Show of Shows has been “internally” decided by WWE. Furthermore, the fans tuning in to watch Raw will also get to see Bray Wyatt return to the red brand to attack Bobby Lashley. If it happens, this will mark the first physical interaction between the two probable WrestleMania opponents.

In a refreshing change, the Triple H era of WWE has seen plans for weekly shows finalized way ahead of time. And it includes the complete lay of the match card as well. While some matches are made on the fly, major attractions are well televised ahead of time. This is why WWE has announced three more matches in addition to the bout between Belair and Carmella.

The Bloodline story will continue as two members of the group will take on two of their biggest enemies. In a first-time-ever singles encounter, Sami Zayn will take on his former brother, Jimmy Uso. On the other hand, Zayn’s Montreal native, Kevin Owens, will settle the score with Solo Sikoa. As both the Canadian superstars will be on the same show, the fans can expect some major angles involving their real-life best friends.

The last advertised match for Raw is Johnny Gargano vs. Finn Balor, which might involve shenanigans from The Judgment Day and Edge. On top of all of this, the WWE Universe can also expect a segment from Cody Rhodes on Monday. The upcoming episode of Monday Night Raw will mark the start of the final stretch on the road to WrestleMania as the Biggest Show of the Year is just a month away. Thus, WWE is rightfully changing gears and picking up the pace as the Showcase of the Immortals inches closer.
