Monday Night Raw tonight will be live from a sold out Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois, and considering the pretty much confirmed news that CM Punk is heading to AEW, it will be interesting to see how the rowdy Chicago crowd responds.
CM Punk chants at Chicago WWE events are nothing new but now, Chicago’s favorite hero has gone “all elite” and for sure not appearing anywhere near a WWE logo.
And just like a New York crowd, Chicago fans are notorious for letting you know if you’re good or you suck and they do not tend to shy away from being very, very vocal.
Advertised for tonight’s show is Goldberg, the former World and Universal champion who is gunning for a WWE title shot at SummerSlam against Bobby Lashley.
Randy Orton is also advertised to be part of a six-man tag team match, most likely a dark match, teaming up with Drew McIntyre and Riddle to take on Lashley, AJ Styles, and Omos. Orton has been out of action for over a month.
