Three matches set for WWE Raw, Angle to reveal WM opponent
WWE has confirmed three matches and a segment for Monday’s episode of Raw.
Raw Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey will defend her title against Dana Brooke on the show. That was set up by an angle on this week’s episode where Brooke interrupted Rousey and wanted her to issue an open challenge, which led to Rousey attacking Brooke and slapping a referee who tried to break things up.
Seth Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre has also been announced for Monday’s show, along with a tag match where Finn Balor will choose a partner to team with him against Bobby Lashley & Lio Rush.
McIntyre attacked Roman Reigns on this week’s Raw and then defeated Dean Ambrose in a falls count anywhere match. Lashley won the Intercontinental title from Balor on the episode, with Rush distracting Balor before the finish.
WWE is hyping that Kurt Angle will reveal his WrestleMania 35 opponent on Monday’s Raw. Angle announced this week that he’ll be having his farewell match at WrestleMania on April 7.
Monday’s Raw is taking place at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois. Universal Champion Brock Lesnar, who will defend his title against Rollins at WrestleMania, is scheduled to appear on the episode.
