“The Big Dog” is coming back to Raw to “take care of some business”. Former WWE Champion Roman Reigns let fans know he would be back on Raw on Monday night. WWE officials were quick to respond.

Reigns’ appearance on Raw, outside of storyline, appears to be in response to low ratings. It remains to be seen if Reigns’ presence will boost Raw’s ratings.

Chris Jericho Returning to NJPW

One of AEW’s biggest names is returning to New Japan. Chris Jericho appeared at NJPW’s Wrestling Dontaku on Saturday via video message to challenge IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada. Okada accepted, and the two will meet at Dominion on June 9th (h/t SEScoops).

Jericho called himself the “Painmaker” and will bring it to the Rainmaker when they meet on June 9th. The AEW star was very busy this weekend, also showing up at a Southern Honor Wrestling event on Friday night. He was thwarted by fellow AEW star Kenny Omega, and both were surprise appearances.

Last night @IAmJericho made his presence known in our main event…and just as quickly @KennyOmegamanX stopped him in his tracks! https://t.co/3AFvaJQ4Ni
