Major matches could be set in stone after this week’s episode of RAW.

WWE will present the April 27 edition of its flagship show, Monday Night Raw, from Laredo, Texas. It is set to feature some of the top-tied WWE superstars who will have a major presence on the show to follow up on their post-WrestleMania 42 feuds.

At the same time, two matches have been made official for tonight’s show. So here are five possible spoilers for WWE RAW this week:

5. Becky Lynch’s first challenger

The new WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion, Becky Lynch, will make her appearance on RAW this week after WrestleMania 42. The Man is likely to find her first challenger for the title, who might be none other than the hometown hero, Roxanne Perez.

Moreover, recent social media activity and former champion AJ Lee asking her wrestling daughter to avenge her loss against Lynch indicate that Perez could get a title shot against her in the near future. Other possible challengers also include Sol Ruca and Ivy Nile.

4. Kairi Sane returns to WWE

Kairi Sane was among the talent released from WWE last week. However, #WeWantKairi has been trending on social media since then.

Much like it happened with R-Truth after he was let go and then brought back last year due to the overwhelming support of fans, the same could happen for Sane, who could return on tonight’s episode of Monday Night RAW.

3. Penta emerges victorious

Penta managed to survive an array of top competitors in a ladder match and retain his WWE Intercontinental title at WrestleMania 42. In his scheduled match for tonight’s RAW, Penta is expected to keep the momentum going and pick up another victory against his opponent, Rusev. The match was set up after a brutal attack by Rusev last week.

2. Seth Rollins vs Bron Breakker official for Backlash

‘The Visionary’ Seth Rollins lost a major match to Gunther at WrestleMania 42 due to Bron Breakker’s interference. The Wolf Dog and his Vision cohorts continued their beatdown of Rollins on the RAW after WrestleMania episode.

Moreover, The Visionary has been announced to open tonight’s RAW, so it is likely that another altercation will take place and lead to a match between Rollins and Breakker at the upcoming WWE Backlash.

1. Roman Reigns accepts the challenge

‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns was confronted by Jacob Fatu last week on RAW, who challenged him for his newly won World Heavyweight title at WWE Backlash PLE.

The Tribal Chief is scheduled to make his decision and is likely to grant Fatu his chance at the championship, setting up one of the most anticipated singles matches for WWE’s next Premium Live Event.

When and where will WWE Raw take place this week?

The April 27 edition of Raw will emanate live from the Sames Auto Arena in Laredo, Texas.

Will Roman Reigns appear on Raw in Texas?

Yes, Roman Reigns is confirmed for the show as he is set to answer Jacob Fatu’s challenge for Backlash.

What else is announced for the show?

Joe Hendry’s official Raw debut and an appearance from the newly crowned Women’s IC Champion Becky Lynch are announced for the show. Seth Rollins will kick off the broadcast, while Penta will take on Rusev. A tag team match where the team of Bayley and Lyra Valkyria will take on Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez is also announced for the show.
