Triple H appearance to kick off WWE Raw

An appearance by Triple H will kick off tonight’s episode of Raw.

WWE has announced that Triple H will make his return to Raw as he opens tonight’s show: “Triple H will return to the red brand tonight to kick off tonight’s Raw. What will The Game have to say following a shocking Raw Legends Night? Don’t miss The King of Kings at 8/7 C on the USA Network.”

Tonight’s Raw was originally supposed to feature WWE Champion Drew McIntyre vs. Randy Orton in a non-title match, but that will no longer be happening due to McIntyre testing positive for COVID-19. McIntyre has entered quarantine but will “address the WWE Universe” on Raw tonight via video.

“With the announcement of the WWE champion testing positive for COVID-19, we can confirm Drew McIntyre will make his first comments tonight on Raw,” WWE announced. McIntyre was also originally set to address Goldberg’s challenge for a WWE Championship match at the Royal Rumble on Raw tonight. The Royal Rumble is taking place on Sunday, January 31.
