Join us at the Fifth Annual 80s Wrestling Con on Saturday, May 4th, at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morristown, NJ, featuring The Four Horsemen, Jake Roberts, and More! 80sWrestlingCon.com.

WWE returns to Allstate Arena in Chicago, IL, for tonight’s episode of Raw. Due to strong ticket demand, the company will have a different look for the show.

WWE is building the show around the return of CM Punk, who is expected to cut a promo. It’s unclear what he will have to say as he’s out of action with a torn triceps.

The show's confirmed matches include Jey Uso vs. Shinsuke Nakamura, Sami Zayn vs. Bronson Reed, Ricochet vs. JD McDonagh, Andrade vs. Ivar, and Ivy Nile vs. Candice LeRae. The company will also be adding more WrestleMania 40 matches.

As a reminder, WWE changed its production plans to use a smaller entranceway, allowing more seats to be opened after the show sold out with the regular configuration.

The minimalist stage set will be used as it’s similar to that they used for last year’s Survivor Series, making it a cool look for the weekly show.
