RAW is live tonight from the FedExForum in Memphis, and it's at the usual times EXCEPT for European countries, particularly the UK, where due to the fact that the United States has already put forward their clocks an hour, RAW will air live at MIDNIGHT tonight (and for the next few weeks) instead of 1am.
Hulk Hogan and The Undertaker showed up on RAW two weeks ago on the night the WWE Network launched, and they're both back again this week. Hogan is in attendance with a massive announcement regarding WrestleMania XXX in New Orleans on April 6th, and Taker is coming to get some more of Brock Lesnar. Last week, Paul Heyman claimed that it was Taker's win over CM Punk at WrestleMania XXIX that led Punk to abandon him (and eventually the WWE), and now Brock is being used to gain revenge. What will Taker have to say about this?
There's obvious problems in The Shield. Last week on RAW, Seth Rollins had enough of the issues between Roman Reigns and United States Champion Dean Ambrose, and bailed on both of them during their big match with the Wyatt Family, who took advantage of the situation. Then on SmackDown, Rollins explained that he abandoned Reigns and Ambrose to prove a point that without the three of them sticking together, the concept cannot work, and they've vowed to carry on. However, rarely do teams who have issues like this ever stay as strong as ever beyond that, so the big boom is likely to come any day now...
Speaking of the Wyatt Family, Bray Wyatt and John Cena still have issues, following the clan costing Cena the WWE World Heavyweight Title on two occasions, and then injuring him a couple of weeks ago. What is Cena's plan to fight back against Bray and his boys heading into WrestleMania XXX?
The Usos won the Tag Team Titles for the first time on RAW last week, defeating the New Age Outlaws to claim the belts. The Outlaws were scheduled to challenge for the titles again on Main Event last week, but decided against it. When will Road Dogg and Billy Gunn cash in on their rematch clause?
Daniel Bryan continues in his mission to get what he wants (but seemingly not what the fans want) - a match with COO Triple H at WrestleMania XXX. Conveniently, this bid has run him afoul of the man challenging WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton for the title in New Orleans, Batista, who claims Bryan isn't man enough to be champion. Despite saying he's not afraid of Bryan, Triple H has thrown the entire Authority and their goons at him, whilst denying Bryan his big match. Orton has somehow played a quiet role in all this with Mania just four weeks away. Will Bryan get his match, is Batista in league with Triple H, and will Orton finally prove a point in all this?
Find out tonight at 8pm EST on USA Network and Sportsnet 360, and at MIDNIGHT on Sky Sports 3.
EDIT: John Cena takes on the Wyatt Family's Erick Rowan tonight.
