Asuka returns this week after a year-long hiatus.
This week’s episode of Monday Night Raw is set to air live from the Resch Center in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The show will feature the final two opening matches in the King and Queen of the Ring tournament, and the winners will secure a spot in the semi-finals.
Former multi-time World Champion Asuka is set for her return after a year-long hiatus. The newly crowned World Heavyweight Champion, Gunther, is also set for an appearance, likely celebrating his win. Gunther defeated Jey Uso in the main event of last week’s show to kick off his second title run.
In the final match of the opening round of the King of the Ring tournament, Rusev, Sheamus, Bronson Reed, and Jey Uso will lock horns. The winner of this match will battle Cody Rhodes, who has already secured his place in the semi-finals. Jey will partake in this matchup after losing the title, as mentioned above.
Similarly, in the final opening match of the Queen of the Ring Tournament, the returning star Asuka will lock horns with Ivy Nile, Raquel Rodriguez, and Stephanie Vaquer in a fatal four-way to decide the final participant in the semi-finals. The winner will join Alexa Bliss in the semi-finals.
