Last week's episode of Raw featured Logan Paul calling out Jey Uso as he set his sights on the World Heavyweight Championship, the in-ring return of JD McDonagh, and Bron Breakker scoring a statement win over Sami Zayn — capped off with a brutal Curb Stomp from Breakker’s new ally, Seth Rollins, to close the show.

With WWE Backlash happening on May 10, tension is rising across the board. So far, the card includes Pat McAfee being set to go one-on-one with Gunther, as well as Becky Lynch (who admitted to attacking Bayley before WrestleMania) challenging Lyra Valkyria for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship.

So, with the first post-WrestleMania premier show looming, what can be expected on Raw? Check below for everything we know so far.

JD McDonagh jumps from the top rope out of the ring against Ivar.

WWE Raw May 5 card:

  • Rusev vs. Otis
  • JD McDonagh vs. Penta

Additionally, Dominik Mysterio, Damian Priest, and The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) are listed to appear.

Rhea Ripley fights Roxanne Perez outside of the ring.
