Erik and Ivar returned to Raw last night without their Viking Raiders gimmick, reverting to their War Raiders personas.

Both men have been out injured for months and returned to defeat Akira Tozawa and Otis in their first match back.

Erik had been out since November 2023 and underwent neck fusion surgery while Ivar was injured in June of this year and had been out of action ever since.

The duo used their War Raiders name for a year in NXT before being called up to the main roster in 2019 and renamed as The Viking Experience and later The Viking Raiders. Prior to their WWE arrival, they had the name of War Machine.
