Bengaluru, January 18: In a unique yet forced situation on Monday Night Raw, the WWE Championship program had to be on a halt due to COVID-19 procedures and with the WWE Champion still out of the equation, Randy Orton is taking care of the main event scene.
The Apex predator will be on the show for retribution after the Fireball Attack from last week, while his attacker, Alexa Bliss is also scheduled to be in action when the show airs from the Tropicana Field in Tampa Bay, Florida.
A gigantic main event between Randy Orton vs Triple H was ruined when Bliss showed up and threw a Fireball at Orton’s face last week. WWE issued a storyline injury update on Orton, stating that he suffered minor burns to his face. The Viper is expected to be all bandaged when he is present on Monday's RAW to address about the attack.
It's very possible that The Fiend Bray Wyatt will return during that segment to set up the rumoured Firefly Funhouse Match at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. The demonic version of Wyatt has not been seen on TV since Orton defeated him in the Firefly Inferno Match at WWE TLC last month. But he will eventually seek redemption as per the recent teasers.
In non-title action, @WWEAsuka goes one-on-one with @AlexaBliss_WWE tomorrow night on #WWERaw!

Moreover, Ric Flair and Lacey started a romantic angle to make things interesting on Raw. Evans and Ric could take their relationship to the next level in the "high-flyin' limousine-ridin" style on Raw.
