Although Seth Rollins has hinted that his role at WrestleMania 38 will be revealed on Raw tonight, we're close enough to The Show of Shows that it would be premature to spoil the surprise at this point.Īn impromptu match with Rollins and Rhodes would be logical considering a spot on the 'Mania card is what Rollins has wanted all along. Mike Johnson of confirmed two weeks ago that Rhodes is indeed on his way back to the company and that it's merely a matter of when WWE decides to pull the trigger. Thus, it would only be fitting if he arrived on Raw following that exact same formula.
These are the debuts and moments you can expect to see transpire on next week's post-WrestleMania Raw.įor better or for worse, Cody Rhodes always managed to stir up the audience with his polarizing promos during his time in AEW. Thankfully, there are quite a few things that could realistically happen and successfully set the stage for an exciting spring season. WWE must restore some of that lost luster with a strong show this year, regardless of what goes down at WrestleMania. If you want to go back a bit further, you can also point to Goldberg's WWE arrival in 2003 and Ric Flair's retirement in 2008 as examples of the episode being historically significant. The night after WrestleMania was when Brock Lesnar made his shocking return to WWE in 2012, and where Paige debuted and won the Divas Championship in an impromptu match in 2014.
Without them, the show isn't remotely the same. The ever-anticipated post-WrestleMania Raw suffered in 20 from not having fans in attendance because of COVID-19 pandemic-related reasons, and the electric atmosphere and audience have always been the best part about it. In the past, fans have considered it one of the most exciting editions of Raw all year, despite that not being the case in some time. It has traditionally served as a "reset" show of sorts for WWE, where the new year begins and the deck gets reshuffled, whether that be the Superstars, the storylines or something else entirely.
