WWE Raw: Top Superstars Removed From 30th Anniversary Episode 1

Ronda Rousey removed from Raw 30

The venue of the WWE Raw 30th anniversary, The Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia has now updated its listing for the upcoming show and Ronda Rousey was removed, along with Matt Riddle. Both the superstars’ removal is understandable as Rouse belongs to the Smackdown brand while Riddle wasn’t expected anyway due to his WWE status.

Rousey uncertain about her WWE status

Interestingly, Rousey was also removed from the WWE Events website listing for WWE Raw 30 as she’s been absent from TV since dropping her Smackdown Women’s Title, anyway a couple of weeks ago. The former champion herself revealed that she doesn’t have a clue about her imminent WWE future during a YouTube/Twitch gaming stream with fans. Upon getting asked about her next WWE appearance, she has the following to say,

“I don’t know. I don’t know. If you haven’t noticed, everything is a little bit in flux with WWE right now. I don’t think anyone knows what’s going on with anybody this week let alone weeks from now”.

For the time being, WWE Raw 30 has more regular roster members like DAMAGE CTRL and The Judgment Day for appearances. The host arena is also now advertising Seth Rollins vs. WWE United States Champion Austin Theory which should be a dark match given their title match encounter on TV has already been done.
