Fastlane was one PLE that the fans will remember for a long time. Fans at Gainbridge Fieldhouse definitely got their money’s worth on Saturday, as the night was full of surprises. Right from Jade Cargill’s glorious debut to Carlito returning to the WWE, the night was stacked with amazement. In addition, Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso became the new Undisputed WWE Tag Team champions giving fans another reason to celebrate.

The WWE universe is equally excited for RAW tonight, which has some power-packed matches lined up for the fans at the CHI Health Center arena in Omaha. WWE has announced 3 electrifying matches for tonight’s edition of its flagship show.

1. Becky Lynch vs Tegan Nox (NXT Women’s Championship)

Becky Lynch is still recovering from her torn arm injury courtesy of the Extreme Rules match at NXT No Mercy with Tiffany Stratton. That match will go down in history as one of the most brutal matches ever. In addition to barbed wire baseball bats and kendo sticks, even broken Barbie dolls were used to inflict pain upon the opponent.

But The Man emerged victorious from that vicious battle, proving why she is the highest-paid female athlete in the WWE. Well, tonight she faces another challenge in the form of Tegan Nox, who is fresh from her victory over Natalya last week. Nox will be well aware of Lynch’s arm injury and that might very well be the target of tonight’s bout. Will Lynch succeed in retaining her title in spite of her gruesome injury. We will have to watch tonight.

2. Kofi Kingston vs Ivar (Viking Rules Match)

The Viking Raiders have been feuding with the New Day ever since their return to the WWE a couple of months ago. What didn’t help the cause of the New Day was Drew McIntyre throwing the chair at Xavier Woods during one of their matches with the Viking Raiders? Thus injuring Woods and putting him out of action for some time.

Also in the last two weeks, Ivar has decimated both the members of the New Day, thus sending a warning message. Kofi Kingston has already secured a convincing victory over Ivar almost 3 weeks ago. But this match is a Viking Rules Match, so everything goes tonight. Moreover, there exists the probability of the inclusion of some Viking weapons, hence the match could turn out in favor of Ivar.

3. Nia Jax vs Raquel Rodriguez

Nia Jax announced her return to the WWE in a thunderous style by delivering a brutal Samoa Drop to Raquel Rodriguez right on the concrete floor. Thus costing her the Women’s World Championship that night. She then went on to destroy Rhea Ripley and put her out of action for almost 21 days.

Now Raquel Rodriguez has a chance for retribution for that title loss against Ripley. She unleashed her wrath on Nia Jax last week on RAW as part of the full-on women’s brawl that took place in the ring. Hopefully, tonight’s match doesn’t see any interference by Ripley and Shayna Baszler, as they too have a bone to pick with Nia Jax.

Seth Rollins did secure a convincing victory against Shinsuke Nakamura at Fastlane. But is that enough to stop Nakamura’s mind games, or will he start playing some new tricks tonight?

Also, Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso will be making their first RAW appearance with their newly won Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships. Will The Judgement Day rechallenge them or will Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn look at getting back something that was once rightfully theirs?
