WWE goes spooky tonight with its annual Halloween special, while Roman Reigns is confirmed to appear.
With just days to go until this weekend’s huge Crown Jewel stadium show in Saudi Arabia, there will be plenty of hype for the event in Riyadh alongside with a seasonable Trick or Street Fight between Otis and Matt Riddle.
On Saturday, Reigns will defend his prestigious Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Logan Paul in what will be the controversial YouTuber’s third wrestling match ever.
In WWE.com’s preview for tonight’s show, they teased: ‘Things aren’t as “Ucey” these days for The Bloodline, and The Head of the Table is looking to get his house in order.
‘Just days before WWE Crown Jewel, Roman Reigns is rolling into the red brand to send one final message to Logan Paul.
‘Will the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion get hot-headed Jey Uso to fall in line before heading to a showdown with The Media Megastar?’
Here’s everything else lined up for the show…
Halloween Trick or Street Fight: Matt Riddle versus Otis

As ever, WWE will give its Halloween edition a spooky and silly twist, with Matt Riddle and Otis clashing tonight in the traditional Trick or Street Fight.
WWE said: ‘The Original Bro came to the aid of his buddy Elias last week, as the songbird Superstar was the target of an Alpha Academy beatdown. Tonight, autumnal objects of punishment will line the ring when Riddle looks to deliver a terrifying result to the tree trunk of a Superstar.’
Expect pumpkins aplenty, while the two stars are no slouches so this should deliver in-ring even with the chaos surrounding it.
Brock Lesnar returns days before Bobby Lashley fight
Brock Lesnar cost Bobby Lashley the United States Championship earlier this month, and the All Mighty got a measure of revenge two weeks ago as he sent the Beast crashing through the announce table.
Now, it remains to be seen how Lesnar will react to being laid out by the former US Champ.
The pair are on a collision course for Crown Jewel, so it remains to be seen if they’ll get physical tonight or if fans will have to wait a bit longer.
Nikki Cross faces Bianca Belair in non-title match

Last week, Nikki Cross shocked the wrestling world as she ditched her mask and cape, shunning her Almost a Superhero alter ego and reverting back to a more dangerous persona.
The former SAnitY star embraced her previous viciousness and unpredictability as she targeted Bayley and Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair at the end of their main event bout.
She left both stars laid out, and now she’s left with a chance to really cause some chaos in the red brand’s division.
A win over the EST of WWE would put her in the running for a title opportunity, while Bayley herself will be looking to get an advantage over Bianca before their Last Woman Standing Match at Crown Jewel.
WWE Raw airs Monday nights at 1am on BT Sport 1.
