WWE Confirms Three Huge Names For Tonight's RAW
Michaels officially revealed his plans on Raw last night when he and long time friend Triple H reunited.
It marks Michaels' first match since retiring eight years ago at Wrestlemania, at the hands of The Undertaker, in a career versus streak match. Following the sold-out Greatest Royal Rumble in April, this is the second event as part of a long-term partnership between WWE and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Michaels helped Triple H defeat The Undertaker in front of over 50,000 fans at the MCG, before Undertaker and Kane destroyed the pair after the match.

On the same night, Acting Raw General Manager Baron Corbin designed an impromptu Global Battle Royal, made of unique (although completely unknown talent) from all over the world, setting himself up to represent the United States.
Corbin announced that John Cena has automatically qualified for the tournament, which will determine the best in the world, but the rest will have to win matches to make it to Crown Jewel. WWE will be holding qualifiying matches on Raw and SmackDown leading up to the event.
