WWE News: Match Card of Live India Event Got Updated
Nov 10, 2017 at 2:29 PM
The WWE Live event in India is less than a month away. The entire Raw roster will stop in our country for two nights while having a tour in Asia. On December 8th and 9th, we will be seeing two house shows on behalf of the flagship brand at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium in New Delhi.
The earlier match card was altered a little bit after WWE announced the full list of the matchups for the two nights, separately. Apparently, the inclusion of Samoa Joe has made a huge change to the earlier announced matches.
Previously, Braun Strowman was scheduled to face Roman Reigns renewing their rivalry. Now, Samoa Joe has been pitted against The Big Dog. The former contender for the Universal Championship has just returned to the Raw brand following an injury and will make his presence felt during the India tour, big-time.
It earned the monster among men to receive a new opponent for him. The updated card is advertising Kane vs Braun Strowman will take place. It means that the live-in attendance fans will get to witness a rare bout between two of the giants in the WWE. On the second night, Samoa Joe and Braun Strowman will compete in yet another rare matchup. Check out the entire card, here:
Day 1 (December 8th, 2017)
3 on 4 Handicap Match: Apollo Crews, Titus O’Neil & Goldust vs. Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson, Bo Dallas & Curtis Axel
Jason Jordan vs Elias
WWE Cruiserweight Championship: Enzo Amore (c) vs. Kalisto
RAW Women’s Championship: Alexa Bliss (c) vs. Sasha Banks
Finn Balor vs. Bray Wyatt
WWE RAW Tag Team Championship: Cesaro & Sheamus (c) vs. Dean Ambrose & Seth Rollins
Kane vs. Braun Strowman
Roman Reigns vs. Samoa Joe
Jinder Mahal (c) (w/ The Singh Brothers) vs. Kevin Owens
Day 2 (December 9th, 2017)
Apollo Crews & Titus O’Neil vs. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson
Mixed Tag Team Match: Kalisto & Sasha Banks vs. Enzo Amore & Alexa Bliss
Goldust vs. Elias
Jason Jordan vs. Bray Wyatt
Finn Balor vs. Curtis Axel (with Bo Dallas)
Braun Strowman vs Samoa Joe
Jinder Mahal (c) (w/ The Singh Brothers) vs. Kevin Owens
The Shield (Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins & Dean Ambrose) vs. Kane, Cesaro, and Sheamus
Quite interestingly, Jinder Mahal is still being advertised as the champion on the card which means that he will either regain the championship before the WWE Live event in India or the match is going to be a non-title match in the main event.
