A little WWE roundup.
John Cena.
Tonight is Raw at Madison Square Garden, it will be John Cena's final Raw appearance and he will open the show and will also be competing. His opponent for tonight is unknown but my guess is that it will a copy of last week when Dom interrupted and they had an IC title match which Cena won, but this time I think Dom will win his title back. After tonight Cena will have just two appearances left which is at War Games and SNME in just under a months time.
The Cena tournament is rumbling on, at Smackdown this past Friday Jey Uso beat The Miz and LA Knight beat a returning Zack Ryder/Matt Cardona to progress, its been reported since that Cardona's appearance was only a one-off. Tonight sees NXT's Je'von Evans taking on Gunther on his return from injury and time off, plus Solo Sikoa taking on another mystery opponent which I seriously doubt will be Ryback!
One other note on this tournament is that we still don't know what the format is as WWE haven't shown us the bracket yet, the first round winners could all be going into a battle royale, rather than just a standard second round.
War Games.
So War Games is next Saturday and we know both of the War Games matches, on the men's side its Breakker and Reed of The Vision, Logan Paul (taking injured Seth Rollins place) and Drew McIntyre taking on CM Punk, Cody Rhodes and The Usos, both teams need a fifth member and for the faces its likely to be Roman Reigns but I love it to be Cena as I'm 99% sure he has never been in a War Games match, for the heels my guess is that Brock Lesnar will be the fifth guy but it has been reported that it could be Austin Theory. For the women's the tag team division are involved, just three faces so far in Rhea Ripley, Alexa Bliss and IYO Sky with four heels in the Kabuki Warriors with Nia Jax and Lash Legend. There should be at least two other matches for that show but no indication of what they could be but there is still time, the build and booking of the show is going nicely so far.
One other thing I thought I'd mention.
Also on Raw tonight is the women's Intercontinental title match between champ Becky Lynch and challenger Maxxine Dupri...and I think Dupri should win. She's looked great in the previous two matches and the crowds got behind her, she has worked and trained hard so i think she earned it, I think Becky has held the title long enough and it should be about making new stars, and its at MSG so why not??
