-WWE Raw will be held tonight in Jacksonville, Florida at Veterans Memorial Arena with Ronda Rousey vs. Alicia Fox in Rousey’s first Raw match. Join me for live coverage as Raw airs on USA Network tonight at 7CT/8ET.
-The WWE Smackdown crew is in Gainesville, Florida at Stephen C. O’Connell Center tonight with the following advertised matches: AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura in a No DQ match for the WWE Championship, Jeff Hardy vs. Rusev for the U.S. Championship, and Daniel Bryan vs. Samoa Joe. The advertising notes that this will be the first WWE show in Gainesville in over 12 years.
-We are looking for reports for tonight’s WWE Raw in Jacksonville, Florida, tonight’s WWE Smackdown event in Gainesville, Florida, and Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live television event in Orlando, Florida. If you are going to Raw, Smackdown, or an upcoming live event and want to help us out with off-air match result details, contact me at dotnetjason@gmail.com
-The advertised Raw dark main event is Roman Reigns, Braun Strowman, Seth Rollins, and Finn Balor vs. Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Kevin Owens, and Baron Corbin. Take it with a grain of salt because WWE rarely makes good on their Raw dark main events.
