Intercontinental title match, multiple bouts added to WWE Raw lineup
Several matches and segments have been added to the lineup for Monday night’s edition of WWE Raw.
In his weekly rundown of the card, General Manager Adam Pearce announced that Intercontinental Champion Penta will defend his title against Dominik Mysterio.
Mysterio missed last week’s edition of WWE Raw due to being in concussion protocol following a chair shot from El Hijo del Vikingo at Rey de Reyes on March 14.
Grayson Waller vs. Je’Von Evans, and Bayley and Lyra Valkyria vs. The Kabuki Warriors have also been added to the lineup.
Additionally, Pearce revealed that both CM Punk and Roman Reigns will be in the building for Raw. He also noted that Becky Lynch will be live to address her attack on AJ Lee.
Regarding the previously announced match between Logan Paul and Austin Theory against The Usos, it had been advertised as a non-title bout before a WWE.com article last week referred to the tag titles being on the line. Pearce said in his rundown that the match will be non-title.
“Logan Paul, now that he’s done playing flag football with Tom Brady, will team with Austin Theory. That’s right, it will be The Vision taking on The Usos. Non-title rules in effect,” Pearce said.
Monday’s edition of WWE Raw is set for the TD Garden in Boston. As of Friday’s edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, 10,181 tickets had been distributed.
The updated lineup is below.
