Roman Reigns return, Intercontinental title match set for next WWE Raw
Roman Reigns will resurface on the next episode of Raw.
CM Punk announced during this week’s show that Reigns would be appearing on next week in Indianapolis. After fans booed the fact that Reigns wasn’t on Monday’s show, Punk said they wouldn’t be booing him because he was here every Monday making every town on every tour, unlike Reigns. He then turned his attention to his Elimination Chamber opponent Finn Balor.
Reigns was last seen on the Raw following the Royal Rumble confronting Punk. The two exchanged words before Reigns revealed he had already made his choice for WrestleMania, telling Punk that he hated him.
Dominik Mysterio will also be in action, taking on Penta in a match for the Intercontinental title. Penta defeated El Grande Americano on last week’s show to earn the title shot.
Gunther will also face Dragon Lee, who is seeking revenge on behalf of AJ Styles. This week’s Raw opened with The Ring General coming out and telling fans in Atlanta they should be celebrating him instead of Styles. Adam Pearce came out and had security escort Gunther out of the building. Gunther started to make his exit but was jumped by Lee as the two brawled backstage.
