This Monday’s WWE RAW (8/10) at the Scope Arena in Norfolk, Virginia is shaping up to be a stacked show, with three matches confirmed and several top names advertised.
General Manager Adam Pearce announced Austin Theory vs. Akira Tozawa, along with Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez teaming up against Sol Ruca and a mystery partner in tag team action. Stephanie Vaquer will also have an in-ring segment, and Becky Lynch is set to appear live.
The headline bout, though, is Penta vs. Laredo Kid in the first match of a tournament to determine the next challenger for Roman Reigns’ World Heavyweight Championship.
