Expectations For WWE Raw and SmackDown On The Road To WrestleMania 42

The February 2 edition of Raw should feature plenty of fireworks, as it will be the first episode after the Royal Rumble. It will likely not only kickstart the road to some of the top championship matches at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas, but it could also include storyline developments for Elimination Chamber.

WWE has yet to officially announce the date for the PLE, but a recent report from Wrestlenomics revealed that Chicago is the expected location.

Fans in St. Louis should also be thrilled with the placement of SmackDown at the Enterprise Center, since that will be only a few weeks prior to WrestleMania 42.

At that point, WWE should have the marquee matches set for its biggest show of the year, which could feature Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and more.
