WWE RAW Preview: Royal Rumble Fallout, Road to WrestleMania
With the 2019 Royal Rumble in the rear view mirror, we are officially on the road to WrestleMania 35. After a marathon show Sunday night, WWE presents Monday Night Raw tonight live from the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona.
No matches have been announced for the show as of this writing, but WWE.com is promoting the following points for the show:
– Seth Rollins celebrates his Royal Rumble victory. By winning the Rumble, Rollins gets to choose who he will face at WrestleMania: Universal Champion Brock Lesnar or WWE Champion Daniel Bryan.
– Ronda Rousey retained the RAW Women’s Championship at the Royal Rumble. Is she destined for a WrestleMania showdown with Women’s Rumble winner Becky Lynch, or someone else entirely?
– Finn Balor put up a good fight against Brock Lesnar Sunday night, but it wasn’t enough to slay the beast. Paul Heyman claims Lesnar re-wrote the bible at the Royal Rumble by squashing Balor’s David vs. Goliath story. Who will step up to be Lesnar’s next challenger?
– Where will the new crop of WWE Superstars wind up? In recent week’s we’ve seen EC3, Lacey Evans, Heavy Machinery and Nikki Cross appear on both Raw and SmackDown. WWE asks, “Which of these NXT standouts will we see compete on Raw this week, and when will their brand alignment be set in stone?”
