WWE Raw preview, April 16, 2018: The 2018 Superstar Shake-up begins
Where will your favorite Superstars end up when Raw and SmackDown LIVE get shaken up in a special two-night event? Don’t miss the first night of the Superstar Shake-up Monday at 8/7 C on USA Network. Also on Raw, “Woken” Matt Hardy & Bray Wyatt battle The Revival in the final round of the Tag Team Eliminator, and contentious best friends Booley and Sasha Banks square off one-on-one.
>Both brands get shaken up
One week after NXT Superstars Ember Moon, No Way Jose and The Authors of Pain rocked the foundations of Monday Night Raw, the red brand gets shaken up again in the 2018 Superstar Shake-up, when Raw Superstars will move to SmackDown LIVE and vice versa.
Will Braun Strowman’s path of destruction take him to Team Blue? Might we see SmackDown LIVE stalwarts like Shinsuke Nakamura or Becky Lynch join the red brand? Which teams will be split up, and which alliances will be re-forged? The Superstar Shake-up begins on Raw and continues the following night on SmackDown LIVE, and you won’t want to miss a moment.
>Who will battle Cesaro & Sheamus at WWE Greatest Royal Rumble on April 27?
Due to Braun Strowman’s tag team partner Nicholas’ scheduling conflicts — he’s in fourth grade, after all — the newly crowned Raw Tag Team Champions were forced to relinquish their titles, prompting Raw General Manager Kurt Angle to schedule a Tag Team Eliminator to determine who will battle former champions The Bar in Saudi Arabia at WWE Greatest Royal Rumble.
2018 Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal Winner “Woken” Matt Hardy successfully teamed with former nemesis Bray Wyatt to defeat Titus Worldwide last week, while The Revival conquered Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson on the same night. This coming Monday night, Raw’s Woken tandem will take on the “Top Guys” for the right to challenge The Bar on April 27, live on WWE Network. Who will advance?
