WWE Raw Preview: Cody Rhodes Incident With The Rock Recapped, WrestleMania 40 Implications

Monday Night Raw features a crucial match with WrestleMania 40 implications.

WWE Raw goes down tonight, and there are serious WrestleMania 40 implications.

It's an important night for superstars on the red brand, as there will be a gauntlet match to determine who will move on to WrestleMania 40 to challenge GUNTHEER for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Competing in the gauntlet match will be Sami Zayn, Chad Gable, Shinsuke Nakamura, Ricochet, Bronson Reed, and JD McDonagh.

Two other matches have also been announced for tonight's episode of Monday Night Raw.

Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan haven't exactly been friends as of late. Liv got into a heated backstage argument with Becky two weeks ago after Lynch interfered in Morgan's match to get revenge on Nia Jax. Liv returned the favor, getting involved in Becky's match with Jax last week.

Becky vs. Liv is official for tonight.

There will also be a title match this evening. The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka & Kairi Sane) will put their WWE Women's Tag Team Championship on the line against Shayna Baszler and Zoey Stark.

Of course, we'll also get a recap of Cody Rhodes slapping The Rock to end the March 8th episode of Friday Night SmackDown. Cody will be inside the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas tonight. Fans await to hear what he'll have to say about what transpired in the ring this past Friday, as well as the fact that his tag team match with Seth Rollins against The Rock and Roman Reigns is now official for WrestleMania Saturday.
