Cody Rhodes to address Shinsuke Nakamura on WWE Raw
Cody Rhodes will respond to Shinsuke Nakamura next week.
Rhodes on Raw this past Monday declared for the Royal Rumble when suddenly, a Shinsuke Nakamura video aired. Nakamura revealed that Rhodes was the person who he has been alluding to in recent weeks regarding a future opponent. Rhodes turned around and walked right into Nakamura giving him the mist.
Imperium will face DIY on Monday in a two-out-of-three falls match. The two teams have been trading wins and losses in recent weeks. This past Monday saw both teams take part in a tag team turmoil match that would determine the next contenders for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team titles. Both eventually lost to The Creed Brothers, who earned the tag team title match.
Later in the show, Gunther berated both Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci, telling them to go to Raw GM Adam Pearce and resolve the DIY situation.
Shayna Baszler will also take on Nia Jax. Baszler had strong words for Jax in a promo backstage on Raw, which led to Baszler’s tag team partner Zoey Stark to challenge Jax to a match, which Jax ultimately won. Stark was also unsuccessful at Survivor Series, losing to Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley.
Here is the lineup for next Monday’s show:
- WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins defends against Jey Uso
- Drew McIntyre vs. Sami Zayn
- Two-out-of-three falls: DIY vs. Imperium (Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci)
- Shayna Baszler vs. Nia Jax
- Cody Rhodes to address Shinsuke Nakamura
