It’s been a while since yours truly has been in the business of recapping WWE television offerings but for this week alone, I’m stepping in to take a look at what we got from Monday Night Raw. WWE managed to hit that lull period after
WrestleMania just as fast as 2020, with the Raw After Mania, traditionally the biggest episode of the year, looking every bit like a forgettable mid-summer offering leading to some B pay-per-view no one will watch.
This week felt like more of the same.
Charlotte Flair is returning to in-ring action on Monday s episode of Raw.
During a commercial that aired during SmackDown tonight, WWE announced that Charlotte vs. Asuka will take place on Monday s Raw. It will be the first time Charlotte has wrestled since the March 1 Raw episode.
The commercial stated that Charlotte vs. Asuka will be Monday s main event.
Asuka lost the Raw Women s Championship to Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 37 night two this past Sunday. On Raw the next night, Charlotte made her return and cut a promo about missing WrestleMania. She then interrupted a Raw Women s Championship rematch between Ripley and Asuka. Charlotte attacked Ripley and Asuka and laid both of them out.

-Mike Rome introduced “Tampa’s own” Titus O’Neil and Hulk Hogan. They walked out in pirate outfits. They did some pirate talk and welcomed fans. They previewed the card with more pirate puns and terminology.
(Keller’s Analysis: There were audible cheers for Titus and contrasting boos for Hogan when they were speaking.)
