During tonight’s episode of RAW, it was announced that the first RAW of 2021 which takes place on January 4th will be a ‘Legends night’ edition of the show. Confirmed for the program and featured in the promotional video were Ric Flair, Torrie Wilson, Beth Phoenix, Kurt Angle, Jacqueline Moore, The Boogeyman, Sgt. Slaughter and more.

The current Women’s Tag Team Champions Charlotte Flair and RAW Women’s Champion Asuka are 2-0 thus far since winning the titles from Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler at TLC. They defeated Peyton Royce and Lacey Evans on RAW and this Friday on SmackDown, they’ll be defending their tag team titles. The 12/25 episode of SmackDown is being taped on 12/22.

Alexa Bliss made her return to WWE programming to confront Randy Orton. In the main event of TLC, Orton set ‘The Fiend’ Bray Wyatt on fire during their ‘Firefly Inferno’ match. As Orton was recapping what he did and how he got rid of The Fiend, the lights went out and when they cut back on, Alexa Bliss was sitting on a swing set and told Orton that when “he” comes back, it’ll be like nothing Orton has ever seen.

A review of tonight’s episode of RAW will be up on the POST Wrestling site and that can be found in the Rewind-A-RAW tab under the “podcasts” folder of the site.
