This week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw will be the go home show for the Royal Rumble pay-per-view, and WWE has announced that Asuka will be putting the Raw Women’s Championship on the line when she defends against Alexa Bliss. Alexa Bliss picked up a victory over Asuka in a non-title match last week.
It’s also been announced that Matt Riddle will be taking on Cedric Alexander, Shelton Benjamin and MVP in a gauntlet match, and if Riddle manages to pick up the victory he will earn the right to challenge Bobby Lashley for the United States Championship.
Charlotte Flair vs. Shayna Baszler will also be taking place on Monday Night Raw this week.
Drew McIntyre was put in quarantine a few weeks ago following a positive COVID-19 test, but it’s been confirmed that he will be appearing on Raw for a confrontation with Goldberg ahead of their WWE Championship match at the Royal Rumble.
Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
