Tonight’s WWE RAW will air live from the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois as the build to Backlash continues.
Backlash host Bad Bunny will return on tonight’s RAW to address The Judgment Day, while Damian Priest will face 2023 WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio in singles action. It’s been rumored that Mysterio, Bunny and Santos Escobar vs. Priest, Dominik Mysterio and Finn Balor would be confirmed for Backlash, but a recent report stated that the Backlash match will be Mysterio and Bunny vs. Priest and Mysterio.
Besides Bad Bunny’s appearance and Priest vs. Mysterio, no other matches or segments have been confirmed for tonight’s RAW.
