WWE made a handful of announcements for tonight’s post-Fastlane edition of Raw.
WWE champion Bobby Lashley and Raw female champion Asuka will participate in untitled fights tonight. Lashley will face Sheamus on Raw tonight, while Asuka will face Peyton Royce.
Lashley is defending his WWE championship against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 37. Sheamus lost to Lashley at last week’s Main event and lost to McIntyre in a barrier-free fight at Fastlane.
WWE has yet to announce Asuka’s challenger to WrestleMania. This will be the first time Royce has appeared since editing a promo on Raw Talk two weeks ago about not getting the opportunities she thinks she deserves, Royce stated during that promo that she wanted a match against Asuka.
Two other fights have been added to tonight’s Raw: Kofi Kingston vs. AJ Styles and Jeff Hardy vs. The Miz. The New Day (Kingston & Xavier Woods) defeated The Hurt Business (Shelton Benjamin & Cedric Alexander) last week to win the Tag Team Raw titles. At WrestleMania, Kingston & Woods will defend their titles against Styles & Omos.
In addition, WWE is announcing that Randy Orton will be calling “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt for Raw after The Fiend returned to Fastlane and cost Orton his match against Alexa Bliss. Rhea Ripley will also make her debut as a member of the Raw list.
