WWE presents the go-home edition of Raw for Saturday’s Crown Jewel PLE, where they’ve confirmed several segments for the show.
Things include Seth Rollins vs. JD McDonagh, DIY (Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa) vs. Imperium (Ludwig Kaiser & Giovanni Vinci), Natalya vs. Chelsea Green in a street fight, Dominik Mysterio vs. Ricochet, and Xia Li vs. Candice LeRae.
Alpha Academy vs. The Creed Brothers was confirmed on Sunday, making it the main roster debut match of the NXT tag team.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted WWE has officially called up the Creeds.
“I was told tonight that right now, barring any changes. And it was not like it was 100%. But right now, they’re being called up. So, you know, I mean, which also means they should win, when it comes to them. I think it’s about time for them to be called up, honestly. I mean, they’re a little rough around the edges. They’re impressive as hell. Yeah. I mean, there was a time where it’s like, my mentality was and I’m sure it’s the same as theirs. It’s like these guys have the chance to be really big stars and they’re very, very high on Julius as a singles. But they’ll probably start as a tag team. And you know, the deal in the sense of it’s like, don’t put them on that show before they’re ready. Because a lot of guys have been put up, brought up too early and pushed too early, and it ends up backfiring, you know, and you could, you know, you could make arguments that they’re not quite all the way there, even though, you know, Julius will impress people what he does and Brutus too, to a different degree. But I think it’s time, you know. Well, they’re certainly in there with the perfect opponents because Chad Gable is a fantastic wrestler. And the thing with Otis is if they throw Otis around and they can do that, you know, it’ll get over. I think it’s about time for them. I think it’s time for Bron Breakker, too.”
