WWE Raw Results: Massive Match With WrestleMania 40 Implications Announced
It's Monday, and that means it's time for another episode of WWE Raw.
Tonight's episode for the red brand continues the road to WrestleMania 40. There are two matches announced for the show, which will be held inside the Front Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas. It's also the first WWE TV show since The Rock laid out a WrestleMania challenge to Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
If you can't catch the action live, keep it locked right here for live Monday Night Raw results.
The number one contender for the World Heavyweight Championship, Drew McIntyre, will collide with Jey Uso following their backstage brawl last week. Becky Lynch and Nia Jax will also go one-on-one, as these two also got physical last Monday.
One has to wonder what's on the minds of Rhodes and Rollins after The Rock and Roman Reigns challenged them to a tag team match on night one of WrestleMania 40. While they aren't expected to reveal their answer tonight, "The American Nightmare" and the World Heavyweight Champion may still have something to say.
Plus, after Chad Gable, Sami Zayn, and Dominik Mysterio all appeared to be entering the Intercontinental title race, what's next for titleholder GUNTHER as we get closer to "The Grandest Stage of Them All?"
The show will begin at 8 p.m. ET. You can keep refreshing this page for live updates throughout the night.
