Jey Uso vs. Finn Balor announced for WWE Raw

Ahead of challenging World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest, Jey Uso is set to face off against another Judgment Day member.

WWE has announced that Jey vs. Finn Balor will take place on Raw this coming Monday. The episode is being held at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Priest cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase on Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 40 to become the new World Heavyweight Champion. McIntyre had just won the title from Seth Rollins before Priest cashed in.

The post-WrestleMania 40 Raw episode was headlined by a fatal four-way match to determine who will be the first challenger for Priest’s title. Jey defeated McIntyre, Ricochet, and Bronson Reed.

CM Punk cost McIntyre both at WrestleMania and in the number one contender’s match.

Jey defeated his twin brother Jimmy Uso at WrestleMania. On SmackDown this Friday, there was an angle where Solo Sikoa and the debuting Tama Tonga attacked Jimmy and kicked him out of The Bloodline.

WWE hasn’t announced when Jey will be getting his title shot against Priest, but the next premium live event is Backlash in Lyon, France on Saturday, May 4.

A tag team match was also added to Raw, with Ivy Nile & Maxxine Dupri teaming together to take on Candice LeRae & Indi Hartwell. The match was made on social media by Raw General Manager Adam Pearce after Durpi and LeRae exchanged words on X:

Appearances by Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley and Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Cody Rhodes have also been added to the lineup for Monday’s Raw:
