Late last week, Bayley issued a challenge for WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair to come over to Raw to fight her and Lyra Valkyria, presumably with the titles on the line. Bliss and Flair responded on SmackDown by saying “We accept.” Even with all of that going on, GM Adam Pearce didn’t say a thing about this match yesterday while running down the official lineup for Raw. Regardless, it was made clear last week that Flair and Bliss do indeed have business to deal with on Raw because Asuka and Kairi Sane said they plan to win the gold. If Flair and Bliss appear on Raw tonight to fight Bayley and Valkyria, don’t be surprised if the Kabuki Warriors attack them before the show is over.

Penta vs. Rusev is booked tonight in a number one contender’s match for Dominik Mysterio’s Intercontinental championship. I don’t know how Rusev is still in the title mix considering Dirty Dom has retained the title against him twice on Raw over the last month. Penta also failed to beat Mysterio for the gold this month on Raw, and came up short multiple times against Dom earlier in his title reign. Dom even eliminated them both from last week’s Battle Royal, but GM Adam Pearce is rewarding them for some reason. Perhaps there will be a double disqualification in this match that leads to a triple threat title match.

Nikki Bella returned to Raw last week to save Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer from the Judgment Day, so tonight it’s Bella vs. Roxanne Perez in a singles match.  Jey Uso took out his own twin brother to win a Battle Royal last week, so now it will be Uso vs. CM Punk for the vacant world heavyweight championship next weekend (Nov. 1) at Saturday Night’s Main Event. Jey and CM have a face-to-face confrontation tonight to hype up their title match. The big story in WWE over the last 24 hours has been at least four of these quick teaser videos, with different pairs of shoes walking around, indicating that a mystery person or people are either arriving or returning to WWE very soon. Wrestling fans love to speculate about this sort of thing, leading to talks about Santos Escobar, Chris Jericho, Andrade, Tony D’Angelo, Brock Lesnar, Omos, Austin Theory, and more.
