But it’s almost certain that WWE creative will start an angle on who his next challenger is going to be for the 2020 WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view.

Update On WWE Royal Rumble 2020 Match Card
The former United States Champion Rey Mysterio will also be back on WWE Raw, next week. He will compete in a championship rematch against Andrade after dropping the belt on this past week’s Thursday Night MSG Live Event.
This match was rumored to take place at the Royal Rumble PPV. But WWE preponed it perhaps to load up the first WWE Raw of 2020 and make the match card even more packed.
