The other big attraction on tonight’s WWE Raw is Ric Flair returning onboard. There’s no one in the pro-wrestling who parties more than the Nature Boy. As per WWE.com, the 16-time World Champion celebrates his 70th birthday with Team Red. Apart from the regular roster members from WWE Raw, we expect multiple legends to show up on this occasion. Don’t be surprised to see The Undertaker and Batista to resurface and set up their Wrestlemania programs.
Fastlane storylines will also begin on WWE Raw which is due from last week. The first championship from the red side should become official on tonight. It will take place for the women’s tag team championships. Sasha Banks and Bayley will receive their first opponents in the form of Nia Jax and Tamina. These two already had a confrontation, last week. They are likely to continue the angle to set up the first title defense for the champions.
WWE.com also confirmed that four NXT superstars will continue to appear on WWE Raw. These names are NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa, Johnny Gargano, Ricochet and Aleister Black. The reports from Wrestling Observer suggests that Gargano & Ciampa will get a WWE Raw tag team title opportunity at Fastlane. They have pinned the champions, The Revival, last week. So the McMahons will grant the young superstars a lifetime opportunity.
