WWE had been teasing that Shane McMahon would be in London for Raw tonight and now it’s been confirmed. Shane McMahon will be at the O2 Arena for Raw and he will be running the show. Shane thanked the fans for their support when he made the announcement earlier today.
Thanks to all of you, I have another week and another opportunity at running #Raw. London's calling, time to get to work.

Shane McMahon may be running the show tonight but that doesn’t mean that everything is going go his way. WWE is teasing that The Authority could be returning tonight to put an end to Shane’s run on Monday nights. They posted the following in their weekly Monday Night Raw preview.
We haven’t seen The Authority on Monday night’s hottest show since WrestleMania, and Triple H and Stephanie McMahon surely have some strong opinions about Shane-O-Mac’s job performance. Will we see WWE’s Prodigal Son reign once more, or might The Authority put a stop to Shane’s tenure as Raw showrunner?
Neither Triple H or Stephanie McMahon have appeared on television since Triple H lost the WWE World Heavyweight Championship to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 32. Triple H is set to join WWE’s European tour on Wednesday and he’ll be wrestling Dean Ambrose at the April 20 event in Newcastle, April 21 in Brussels, April 22 in Paris, and April 23 in Malaga, Spain.
